CNN)The International Olympic Committee's executive board said Sunday it is considering postponing -- but not canceling -- this summer's Olympic Games in Tokyo because of the coronavirus pandemic. A week after saying no "drastic decisions" would be made, the IOC board said it is considering a number of options to deal with the ongoing outbreak, including modifying plans to allow the 2020 Tokyo Games to begin on schedule on July 24 or changing the start date for the Games. The IOC said its scenario-planning will allow for the best decision in the interest of the athletes and everyone involved. "This step will allow better visibility of the rapidly changing development of the health situation around the world and in Japan," the board said. "It will serve as the basis for the best decision in the interest of the athletes and everyone else involved." The IOC executive board ruled out canceling the Games, saying it would "destroy the Olympic dream of 11,000 athletes" and all those who them, according to a letter to athletes from IOC President Thomas Bach. Olympics 2020: What happens if the Tokyo Games don't go ahead? Olympics 2020: What happens if the Tokyo Games don't go ahead? "Cancellation would not solve any problem and would help nobody. Therefore it is not on our agenda," he wrote. The IOC pointed out that conditions in Japan have improved significantly, but globally there has been a dramatic increase in Covid-19 cases. Bach recognized that the outbreak, and the measures to slow its spread, have already impacted athletes' training plans. "Many of you cannot prepare and train in the way you are used to, or even not at all because of the anti-Covid-19 measures in your country," he said. IOC under pressure to postpone The IOC has faced increasing pressure to postpone the Games as people across the world have gotten sick and died from Covid-19. Tracks, gyms and public spaces are closed in much of the world and major qualifying events have been canceled. Japan Olympic Committee member Kaori Yamaguchi broke ranks on Friday, saying the Games should be postponed because some athletes had been unable to train. Four-time Olympic gold medalist and IOC member Hayley Wickenheiser said it is "insensitive and irresponsible" of the IOC to insist "with such conviction" that the Olympics would go ahead as planned. Facing 'impossible' situation, athletes criticize Olympic organizers Facing 'impossible' situation, athletes criticize Olympic organizers "This crisis is bigger than even the Olympics," said the former Canadian ice hockey star. "Athletes can't train. Attendees can't travel plan. Sponsors and marketers can't market with any degree of sanity ... we don't know what's happening in the next 24 hours, let alone in the next three months." Bach noted in his letter that even postponing the Olympics is "an extremely complex challenge." Critical venues needed for the Games could potentially not be available if the Games were postponed now, he wrote. "The situations with millions of nights already booked in hotels is extremely difficult to handle, and the international sports calendar for at least 33 Olympic sports would have to be adapted," Bach wrote. "These are just a few of many, many more challenges." On Friday, Tim Hinchey III, the head of USA Swimming, called for the Olympics to be postponed to 2021, saying it is "the right and responsible thing to do" in a letter to the US Olympic & Paralympic Committee. On Saturday, Hinchey was ed in his call for postponing the games by Max Siegel, the head of USA Track and Field. |

Well you may be right logically, but that's not what the law say, the law matrimonial causes Act provides that two consenting adults can legally get married without the consent of their family , and that married will be valid, so long they are adults and consent to do so. yvelchstores: |

(CNN) — At the end of this month, Hindus in India and around the globe will adorn their houses with lamps, share feasts and exchange gifts to celebrate Diwali, the festival of lights. For Hindus, light symbolizes the triumph of good over darkness, or of knowledge over ignorance. In many Hindu traditions, the sun -- our planet's source of light -- is a major source of energy and power; now, as the world seeks to address climate change, Diwali's celebration of light takes on a very contemporary significance.

United Nations (CNN) — For years, UN countries seeking to stop Russia from assisting the Assad regime militarily in Syria have been blocked by Moscow's veto power as a permanent UN Security Council member. But on Friday at the UN, opponents of Russia's punishing assaults in Syria achieved a small symbolic victory. Russia was defeated in its bid to be re-elected as a member of the UN's Human Rights Council, the most prestigious in the UN system designed to examine global human rights. But it was close. Russia lost to Croatia by just two votes, 114 to 112, with Hungary claiming the Eastern Europe region's other remaining seat. UN General Assembly voted in a secret balloting process that has no vetoes. The United States and United Kingdom also won seats on the rights . UN Watch, a UN watchdog group, said after the vote that "the non-election of Russia shows that the nations of the world can reject gross abs if they so choose." RELATED: Russian, US military planes in near miss over Syria Dozens of human rights groups had campaigned against Moscow's bid, citing the massive bombing assault on parts of Syria opposed to the government of its close ally, President Bashar al-Assad. An estimated 400,000 people have died in the Syrian conflict. Moscow's refusal to accept Security Council resolutions framed to seek the end of the war seemed to be a factor in Russia's failure to gain for the council seat from others in the UN. State Department spokesman Mark Toner, noting that he wasn't referring to Russia specifically said that "we continue to believe that UN member states should seek countries that have a strong human rights record to be a part of the council." Human Rights Watch's UN director, Louis Charbonneau said, after Hungary and Croatia beat out Russia in their regional contest, that the vote "also shows how important it is to have competitive slates in UN elections. Countries should have a chance to reject those whose candidacies are so severely compromised, as they did today." RELATED: US, Russia spar amid charges of war crimes in Syria It's rare for one of the five powerful permanent UN Security Council member nations to lose any UN election. However, the United States, too, experienced such defeat in 2001, when the US failed to win a seat on the UN Human Rights Commission, which the council later replaced. Human rights advocates, however, did lose their campaign to stop Saudi Arabia from being re- elected. The Mideast power has recently been accused of major human rights violations in its onslaught in neighboring Yemen. But it was nearly impossible for Saudi Arabia to lose, having already been selected as one of the four Asia-Pacific region countries to run for that region's four allocated slots. China and Cuba also won seats. UN Watch executive director Hillel Neuer said the re- election of Saudi Arabia, China and Cuba "casts a shadow upon the reputation of the United Nations." CNN's Elise Labott and Casey Riddle contributed to this report
