At 11:15 AM Good Sunlight but chilly weather. 11:30 AM relatively hot. At 11.45 AM hot weather of the Sun, India's wettest monsoon in 25 years could lift 2020 wheat output to record, Nov. 30, 2019: 12:08 AM IST: It’s going to be a warmer winter this year, says IMD.
DETAILS
Nov. 16, 2019: At US congressional hearing on Kashmir, call to end lock down. Lawyers and human rights advocates testify at hearing, demanding investigation into current crisis.
Nov. 16, 2019: Pshenichnikov studied a system in which an organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite semiconductor was combined with the organic compound bathophenanthroline (bphen), a material with a large band-gap. The scientists used laser light to excite electrons in the perovskite and studied the behavior of the hot electrons that were generated.(Singapore) have now shown that this may be easier than expected by combining a perovskite with an acceptor material for hot electrons. Their proof of principle was published in Science Advances on 15 November.
Nov. 16, 2019: 00:52 IST: ‘Experts worried about safety of Srisailam dam. Sagar, Amaravati will suffer severe damage if urgent measures are not taken’ . Irrigation experts are jittery about the condition of the Srisailam dam, which had to handle huge volumes of water in recent times. The gates were open eight times this season. Since 2003 no repair and maintenance works were carried out. If dam bursts the Nagarjuna Sagar, Pulichintala dam, Prakasam barrage, would be affected. Rayalaseema would become a desert. It endured a flood of 25.5 lack cusecs in 2009. Repair works to be taken up on war footing. Systematic neglect since 2003. The dam tilted almost 8.8 mm on October 8, 2009, but fortunately returned to normal after the flood receded.
Nov 16, 2019: JAMMU, In a major crack down in Dwara area of Sidhra, just adjoining Golf Course at the bank of river Tawie, the Forest Department staff and Police along with Revenue officials today retrieved over 200 canals of forest land and demolished 10 Pucca structures using JCBs
Nov 16, 2019: 12:20 pm IST: Untimely rains hit India's summer crops, delay rural economy recovery. Heavy rains in October and November have brought more misery to India’s farmers.
Nov: 16, 2019: 2 min read: India Unlikely To Allow Commercial 5G Use On 26 Ghz On ISRO’s Demand. Russia, China and Japan want to use 26 Ghz band for military operations. India has also accepted ISRO’s demand for satellite preparation. Could result in surge in 5G tariff for consumers in India, say telcos.
Nov.16, 2019: Japan: We also identified sirtuins, known as anti-aging genes, to examine how they delay aging and prolong life. Interestingly, our recent research findings indicate that delaying human aging and extending life expectancy is not quite a pipedream. Focusing on the analysis of sirtuins and the klotho gene, named after the Greek goddess Klotho who spun the thread of life, we are working on methodologies to clarify the mechanism for the onset of age-related diseases and thus suppress aging, with the goal of overcoming aging and age-related diseases.
Nov.17, 2019: India has potential for very rapid economic growth, says Bill Gates.
Nov. 27, 2019 3:29 pm: 6.1-magnitude earthquake hits Greek island of Crete. The tremor was felt a day after a 6.4 -magnitude earthquake in Albania that has left more than 20 dead and hundreds injured. The Athens Observatory said the quake struck at 9:23 am (0723 GMT) and had a depth of over 70 km (44 miles).

Nov. 18, 2019: Winter arrives in US. Mississippi -8C, breaking record of 108 years, Birmingham and Alabama recorded -8 C, more than 200 records have fallen since last week, number might cross 300. Snowfalls in Texas, heavy snow fall affects life in Buffalo, New York, recorded nine inches broke a 77-year old record and parts of northern Michigan saw almost 30 inches of snowfall.
Nov. 18, 2019: The more sunny days in a place like Barbados or Antigua, the better. But the city in the world that gets the most sunlight isn’t a beach town at all. It’s Yuma, Arizona.
Nov. 18, 2019: 8:08 am CST, Monday, Snow, flooding, mudslides in Austria kill 1, injure 2. Another mudslide in Bad Gastein, south of Salzburg, destroyed two homes, burying two women inside. Firefighters rescued one of them quickly, the other one only after several hours. Both were injured and taken to the hospital. In Gurktal, in the Carinthia region, some 70 firefighters had to evacuate the residents of 15 buildings because of the swelling Gurk river.
Nov. 18, 2019: A Gravastar is an object hypothesized in astrophysics as an alternative to the black hole theory by Pawel O. Mazur and Emil Mottola . It has usual black hole metric outside of the horizon, but de Sitter metric inside. On the horizon there is a thin shell of matter. In the original formulation by Mazur and Mottola, gravastars contain a central region featuring a p=-ρ false vacuum or "dark energy", a thin shell of p=ρ perfect fluid, and a true vacuum p=ρ=0 exterior. The dark energy like behavior of the inner region prevents collapse to a singularity and the presence of the thin shell prevents the formation of an event horizon, avoiding the infinite blue shift. The inner region has thermodynamically no entropy and may be thought of as a gravitational Bose–Einstein condensate. A gravastar would be made of a core of exotic matter similar to dark energy, that prevents the collapse of a matter shell surrounding it, made of the normal matter that once made up a star. When the star started to collapse at the end of its life, a phase transition would happen that could create this exotic matter before the event horizon could be formed. This speculative object would be almost as compact as a black hole, but the tiny difference between them would be enough to prevent the formation of the event horizon and the conceptual questioning that comes with it. 17 Nov. 2008 • IOP Publishing Ltd. P.Roach et al. Dynamical models of prototype gravastars are constructed and studied. The models are the Visser–Wiltshire three-layer gravastars, in which an infinitely thin spherical shell of a perfect fluid with the equation of state p = (1−γ)σ divides the whole spacetime into two regions, where the internal region is de Sitter, and the external one is Schwarzschild. When γ<1 and , it is found that in some cases the models represent stable gravastars, and in some cases they represent 'bounded excursion' stable gravastars, where the thin shell is oscillating between two finite radii, while in some other cases they collapse until the formation of black holes occurs. However, when γ≥1, even with , only black holes are found. In the phase space, the region for both stable gravastars and 'bounded excursion' gravastars is very small in comparison to that for black holes, although it is not completely empty. Spin induced quadrupole moment parameter takes value 1 for a black hole and for other compact objects the value will vay depending on the internal structure. A gravastar is a strange object that would have a core of exotic matter resembling dark energy. The external shell like a normal star. Gravastar gets compressed near the equator and bulges out at the poles. Thus their shapes change differently when spinning. There are not many ways to look for exotic objects.

A novel bacteria-repellent coating could dramatically reduce the amount of water needed to flush a toilet, which usually requires six litres. When it dries, the first spray grows molecules that look like little hairs, with a diameter of about 1,000,000 times thinner than a human's," Wang said in a statement. While this first application creates an extremely smooth surface, the second spray infuses a thin layer of lubricant around those nanoscopic "hairs" to create a super-slippery surface, the researchers explained.

Kinshasa, after torrential overnight rains, with some swept away by landslides. a bridge connecting the districts of Lemba and Ngaba collapsed, and another was destroyed in the district of Kisenso. The mayor of Lemba, Jean Nsaka, said a drainage ditch had given way under pressure of the water, and the highway had been engulfed. "More than 300 homes have been flooded. There are many houses which have been destroyed."
