Team captain optimistic after Davis Cup success
KUALA LUMPUR: Davis Cup captain Adam Jaya believes his charges' strong performances in the Asia-Oceania Group IV competition which concluded on Saturday (July 19) bodes well for Malaysia's hopes in upcoming competitions. Malaysia topped Pool A in the competition after routing Nepal, Iraq and Kyrgyzstan - beating them all 3-0 - before downing Qatar 2-0 in the promotional playoff at the National Tennis Centre here on Saturday to secure promotion to Group III next year. Promotion was a relief for both Malaysian fans as well as the national body, Tennis Malaysia (TM). The squad was relegated from Group III last year. Malaysia had never competed in Group IV, which is the second lowest tier, prior to this. National team head coach Muliyadi Jamal opted to field a relatively young squad this year, featuring Darrshan Kumar, 18, Daniel Prickett (20), Leroy Yong (21), Naufal Kamaruzzaman (23) and Koay Hao Sheng (26). They dropped only one set throughout the whole competition. Adam hopes the players can continue their fine form at the Thailand Sea Games (Dec 9-20) as well as next year's Davis Cup. "Now that the job (promotion) is done, I believe we have a good group of players ahead of the Sea Games," said Adam yesterday (July 19). "We have the momentum now. I hope the players will continue to train and also compete in tournaments to maintain their form. "With this group of players, as well as a few who are not here, I believe we can be competitive at the Sea Games as well as in (Davis Cup) Group III next season. "We have been playing in Group III for many years so we know what it takes to stay there or to win it. We have the experience. "We, however, need to make sure our best players are available as Group III is an even tougher competition (compared to Group IV)." Southeast Asian heavyweights Thailand and Indonesia competed in Group III this year alongside Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Vietnam, Syria, Jordan, Sri Lanka and Cambodia. National team stalwart Hao Sheng was dependable as always, winning all four of his matches for Malaysia in Group IV this year despite feeling ill during his match against Kyrgyzstan's Mirgiiaz Mirdzhaliev. Darrshan was arguably the most outstanding player among the younger players in the squad, displaying outstanding court coverage, variety of shots and a solid serve which belies his diminutive physique. He thumped Iraq's Akam Bakr 6-1, 6-1 during the group stage before securing promotion for Malaysia with a decisive 6-3, 6-1 win over Qatar's Mossa Alharrasi. "He moves very well, this is his weapon but Darrshan also has good variety in his shots which are also quite powerful, this surprised many of his opponents," said Adam. "For a smaller player, he also has a very good serve." Darrshan will be leaving for the United States later next month to join the University of North Dakota where he will study biomedical engineering and play collegiate tennis. University of North Dakota is an NCAA division one school. Adam, who is also a former national coach, added that he is prepared to continue in his role as Davis Cup team captain next season. "Tennis has always been my passion and my love for the game will always remain the same," said Adam. "If I am offered the role of team captain, I will definitely accept it. My schedule is quite busy as I also have a business to manage but I will definitely find a way if my country needs me."

Why Am I Sweating More Than I Used To?
Credit - Photo-Illustration by TIME (Source Image: Peter Dazeley—Getty Images) If you think you've started sweating more than usual—and it's not just because of the weather or your workout—you're probably not imagining it. Many people notice changes in how much they sweat as they get older. Why? Aging, hormones, medications, stress, and underlying health conditions can all tweak your body's thermostat. Here's how sweat patterns typically change over time—and when those shifts signal something more serious. During early adulthood, your sweat glands are typically at their most active. This is when your metabolism is still running high, muscle mass is relatively abundant, and hormone levels (especially estrogen and testosterone) are more stable. You may notice you sweat more during workouts or stressful situations—but unless you have an underlying condition, your body generally regulates heat efficiently. This is when many people—especially women—begin to notice changes in how and when they sweat, says Dr. Asmi Berry, a California-based dermatologist. 'Hormones play a huge role in regulating sweat,' she says. 'Estrogen and progesterone shifts like those during perimenopause or menopause can disrupt the body's temperature regulation and lead to hot flashes or night sweats.' Your thyroid levels also increase as you enter midlife, which can raise the body's baseline temperature and trigger more sweating. Read More: What's the Most Refreshing Drink That's Not Water? During this time, men may also experience changes due to a gradual decline in testosterone, though it's typically less dramatic. As you get older, your sweat glands can become less active. This may mean you sweat less overall—but there's a downside, too. Your body may also become less efficient at cooling itself. 'This makes older adults vulnerable to heat-related illnesses like heat exhaustion and heat stroke,' says Dr. Marjorie Jenkins, professor and dean of health affairs at the University of North Dakota and chief clinical advisor at Incora Health, a health technology company focused on women's wellness. 'This reduced sweating capacity is a normal part of aging, but it's something we need to be aware of, particularly during hot weather.' Sweating can be triggered by various factors beyond just heat. 'Vigorous exercise is the most obvious trigger, but anxiety and emotional distress are also major culprits,' says Berry. 'Physical pain, spicy foods, caffeine, alcohol, hot drinks, humidity, certain medications, and fever from infections can all cause increased sweating.' Read More: How Heat Waves Could Have Long-Term Impacts on Your Health Remember: sweating isn't a bad thing. It's a way for the body to automatically regulate temperature. 'When our body isn't able to do this, it can cause a heat stroke and even cause a medical emergency,' Berry says. Certain drugs list excessive sweating—also called diaphoresis—as a common side effect, either because they affect your nervous system, hormone levels, or how your body regulates temperature. Antidepressants, especially selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like fluoxetine (Prozac) or sertraline (Zoloft), are among the most common meds to cause sweating, says Jenkins. 'They can increase serotonin levels in the brain, which in turn affects thermoregulation and can lead to excessive sweating, particularly at night,' she says. Opioid pain relievers, such as oxycodone or morphine, can also disrupt the body's ability to manage heat, triggering perspiration. Read More: Why Extreme Heat Is So Bad for the Human Body Jenkins says other drug classes to watch include diabetes medications (like insulin or sulfonylureas)—which can cause low blood sugar, a well-known sweat trigger—and thyroid medications, which can ramp up metabolism and make you feel warm or flushed. Fever reducers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen can induce sweating as your body breaks a fever. 'Even some blood pressure medications can trigger sweating,' adds Jenkins. 'What's particularly concerning is that medication withdrawal, from substances like opiates, alcohol, nicotine, or benzodiazepines, can also cause excessive sweating and should be monitored carefully.' If you suspect your medication is increasing your sweat levels, don't stop taking it abruptly. Instead, talk with your health care provider. They may be able to adjust your dosage, recommend timing strategies, or switch you to a different treatment that's less likely to leave you drenched Hyperhidrosis, which affects an estimated 5% of Americans, is a medical condition where the body sweats excessively, beyond what's needed for temperature regulation. It causes the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, underarms, or the face to sweat, sometimes resulting in skin rashes, bacterial infections, and yeast infections. Hyperhidrosis can occur without an obvious trigger—often starting in adolescence or early adulthood—and can persist for years without a clear cause. Secondary hyperhidrosis is caused by an underlying issue like medications, infections, endocrine disorders, or even certain cancers. 'While hyperhidrosis isn't life-threatening, its impact on quality of life can be profound,' says Jenkins. 'Many people experience social anxiety, isolation, and distress that can prevent intimacy and lead to embarrassment about going out in public.' If sweating is severe, persistent, or affecting your quality of life, it's important to talk to a dermatologist or your doctor. There are effective treatments ranging from topical prescriptions to Botox. Contact us at letters@

Fargo judge nominated to be North Dakota's U.S. attorney
Nicholas Chase has been nominated to serve as U.S. attorney for the district of North Dakota. (Photo provided) The Trump administration has nominated North Dakota district court judge Nicholas Chase to be the next U.S. attorney for North Dakota, U.S. Sens. John Hoeven and Kevin Cramer announced Wednesday. Chase is an East Central Judicial District judge with chambers in Fargo. He was appointed to the position in 2022 by then-Gov. Doug Burgum. Previously, Chase served for 20 years in the North Dakota U.S. Attorney's Office including time as first assistant U.S. attorney and acting U.S. attorney. Hoeven and Cramer, who recommended Chase for the position, said they will work to advance Chase's confirmation 'as quickly as possible.' 'Nick has dedicated his career to public service and the pursuit of justice in North Dakota and has a proven record of building cooperation among federal, state, tribal, and local law enforcement agencies,' the Republicans said in a joint statement. In a social media post, North Dakota Attorney General Drew Wrigley said Chase was an 'outstanding' choice by President Donald Trump. 'Judge Chase is a dedicated public servant with deeply held constitutional and patriotic principles,' wrote Wrigley, who twice served as North Dakota's U.S. attorney. Chase earned a bachelor's degree from Minot State University in 1991 and graduated with a juris doctorate from the University of North Dakota in 1995. He also worked in private practice and as a federal judicial law clerk. If confirmed, Chase would succeed Mac Schneider, who served as U.S. attorney under the Biden administration.
