First Female PAKISTANI ASTRONAUT has world at her feet

AMID THE pervading gloom in Pakistan, an historic milestone went largely unnoticed this past week. Namira Salim, the first would-be Pakistani astronaut to go into space this year hoisted the country’s crescent-and-star flag at the South Pole. Following up on a similar deed in the North in April last, she has become the first Pakistani to reach the two poles – a deed worthy of the very distinguished achiever that Namira is.

It would belittle the distinction, if her new heights were to be seen as only raising the bar for her gender but it takes nothing away from the fact that Pakistani women have, often enough, made their presence felt globally: from the first woman prime minister in the Muslim world (Benazir Bhutto) to the world’s youngest Microsoft Certified Professional (Arfa Karim) the list is long. Braving the extreme harsh weather, wind chill and severe solar radiation, Namira reached the South Pole in what was a private expedition 90 degrees south last week.

With her more renowned passion for space travel and the latest conquests at the planet’s bends, it is easy to forget that Namira is a woman of varied talents.

She was a born star-gazer, getting her first telescope when she was 14. Namira joined Pakistan’s first astronomy society at the age of 16.

Born in Karachi, she was never trained as an astronaut. Instead, she made her name as a sculptor, musician, poet, astrologer, peace activist and humanist. The only sister of twin brothers, who run their father’s business of heavy construction industry in Dubai also learnt flying as well as scuba diving.

It was on March 29, 2006, when this shy Pakistani woman made global headlines. Of all the people, the world’s most versatile and adventurous entrepreneur, Richard Branson, introduced Namira to the world as the first woman from the Middle East and Asia to fly into space on a commercial spaceship.

Pakistan’s new celebrity was also the first from her region to be a member of the exclusive Virgin Galactic Founders Club – the first 100 space travelers to sign up in full to a flight on Virgin Galactic, when commercial operations commence in 2008-9. Of over 44,000 registrants, the Virgin Galactic chose her to be a pioneer to fly into space for all of those who come after.

Unlike many of her ilk, Namira does not carry a chip on her shoulder. She would return your call if she is unable to attend it for any reason. She has no personal secretaries, no complexes and no swollen egos.

In a recent interview, I remember Namira telling me that she always wanted to do something different. This year her dream – and, I suspect, that of millions of her compatriots – is about to come true, when she flies into orbit.

10 Annoying Things American Tourists Shouldn't Do

I was reading one of the hubs and i found this hub and i liked for its style and way of writing and i am copy it here for you to read it and enjoy it.

Author : Isabella Snow

I live in one of the oldest and most architecturally fascinating cities in Europe, which results in loads of tourists. Now, to be sure, every country has their fair share of idiots who travel abroad. But, for some reason, the Americans seem particularly ignorant and obnoxious.
This wouldn’t be so bad, if they were capable of blending into the crowd – but they tend to lack these skills more often than not.
Due to my job, I encounter loads of them every weekend, and I’ve noticed a distinct similarity across the board. It doesn’t matter if they’re from the south, the west or the northeast – they always seem to act the fool in some respect.
It’s gotten so bad that the US government has actually started issuing etiquette pamphlets for Americans traveling abroad, to try to clue them in on their behavior and how it ticks most of the world off. Unfortunately, most Americans seem to have missed the memo.
So please, on behalf of Europe, let me ask the Americans to stop doing the following:

Stop talking about how “cheap” everything is.
For starters, things aren’t as cheap as you think they are, and most of you don’t really have a clue about currency conversion. I hear people debating costs all the time. Bring a calculator, cos most of you cannot do the math in your heads. Secondly, if it is cheap, it may not be cheap to the people who live there, and have to listen to you talk like you're King Midas. It’s rude, so keep your remarks to yourself until your back in your hotel room.

Stop talking so damned loud.
This is one of the most obnoxious things American tourists do. If you’re in a bar where it’s loud and you have be loud to hear yourself, great, go for it. But if you’re in a nice restaurant, or club, or shop, etc – shut up! Believe me, your conversations are not that interesting to the locals. And I mean that sincerely; it’s ridiculous how petty the lot of you sound, which is the real reason Europeans look down on us. Hard not to, when the biggest crisis in someone’s life is running out of hairspray, and ohmigod, like, will I be able to find my brand in this 3rd world country?

Read something about the country you’re visiting before you get on the plane.
Did you know that most Americans think the Czech Republic is still Czechoslovakia? And did you know that most who realize it isn’t, think only the name changed? And that those who realize they separated into two different countries, still don’t realize they are two different peoples – the Czechs and the Slovaks? I’ve met “educated” people walking around while they call home on their cell phones and tell mom they’re having a swell time in Czechoslovakia. Duh.

Do not assume people speak English.
Guess what – in all of Europe, the only place you’re guaranteed to hear English is in the UK. Do not waltz into Germany or France and expect the locals to speak English with you, and don’t give them a dirty look if they can’t. Most of the Europeans I know speak 3 languages, whether English is one of them or not. How many do you speak? Also, I see loads of Americans encounter non-English speakers.. and then start to speak more loudly. Or, they start to speak like they’re addressing someone who is mentally challenged. Slick, people. Really, really slick.

Don’t assume people don’t speak English.
Even if they say they can’t speak English, most people do speak enough to understand whether or not you’re speaking rudely about them. Just because the waitress doesn’t know that fancy drink you’re asking for, doesn’t mean she won’t spit in your food as you snub her to your friends. Get some manners, or order room service.

Don’t ask people what communism was like – and don’t pretend to understand it.
I’ve lived in a former soviet bloc country for 5 years. One which still has loads of red tape. I’ve been accepted into a few families and have learned many things about communism – but I would never presume to “understand” what it was like. Which means some fool who just stepped off a plane shouldn’t bring it up either, unless a native brings it up first.

Don’t mention the Nazis when traveling through Germany.
Most Europeans still trash the Germans for the Nazis and they still toss words like Gestapo around – but not in Germany. Don’t be an idiot. If I need to explain this one in detail, you’re one of the Americans who ought to stay home.

Don’t get into political arguments.
Whether you agree or disagree with American politics, don’t get into it with the locals. Even if you agree with them, all this does is attract loads of attention, and it serves no purpose. And, to be frank, Europeans probably know more about American politics than the average American tourist – so you stand a good chance of being made a fool of, anyway.

Don’t "educate" people.
Really. Don’t try to explain life and other complexities to the locals. They’re usually pretty educated and take school pretty seriously, even at a young age. Odds are, they’re better read and better educated than most of you, so don’t talk to them like you’re addressing the deaf, dumb and blind kid, ok? Cos most of you just come off as condescending, whether you mean to, or not.

Don’t talk about how much better something is in America.
I hear this one constantly. It’s obnoxious. It’s rude. And it’s very, very American. Yes, some things are better in the USA, and, believe it or not, some things are better in Europe. If you prefer the US, go home – Europe will be ok without you.
--
Obviously, this doesn’t apply to ALL Americans. It does, however, apply to most. And, of course, it’s not just Americans – the Brits do it too, but they're far more subtle about it. At any rate, this kind of behavior does not reflect well on Americans, and is particularly annoying for those who actually live overseas, cos we get stuck having to assure the locals that not all Americans are so incredibly inept.
Isabella

this was really good ...
I remember encountering American tourists in UK with customary "Oh Gaaad, everything is so little."

Godfather - The legend Continues

Another good Indo-Pak movie which is a big hit in Pakistan and now a days is showing in UK cinemas. Bhatti, who has financed and acted in the film Godfather, The Legend Continues, claims to be a hotelier — a partner in Hotel Ramada Inn in Dubai. Aslam Bhatti, an alleged gold and drugs smuggler from Pakistan, is based in Dubai.

The film has a huge star cast from India, Pakistan, Bulgaria and Dubai. Bhatti is playing a negative role in the film and has been given the look of a don.

The film stars Vinod Khanna, Arbaaz Khan, Hrishita Bhatt, Nafisa Ali, Preeti Jhangiani, Amrita Arora. Kim Sharma has done an item number in the film.

Stalwarts from Pakistan like Shafquat Chima, Ajab Gul and Mehmood Akhtar represent the Pakistani film industry.

Here is the synopsis of the film

A thriller focusing on the rise of a group of influential and powerful gangsters.
Ali is a shepherd who has shouldered responsibility of fending for his family, including his parents Farid and Faatima, and his younger sister Nahid. One fateful day he ends up saving Abdullah Khan's (the underworld gangster) life.
As a result, Abdullah's rival, Khalid eliminates Ali's family brutally. A repentant Abdullah adopts Ali and Nahid. Abdullah's wife, Salima Begum, welcomes Ali and Nahid whole-heartedly.
But these youngsters are resented by Shaakir, Abdullah's son, who feels that Ali is getting more attention and love than him. Meanwhile, Ali soon realises that power is everything in this world and so joins Abdullah in his business.
Under the love and care of Abdullah he grows to be a heroic but feared force. He may be ruthless in his dealings but always has great compassion.
As Ali becomes the new face of Abdullah Khan's vast empire and a champion of the needy, Shaakir becomes more resentful. When Abdullah announces Ali as his heir, Shaakir becomes furious. The conflict between father and son results in Abdullah's death.
As the shattered family comes to terms with their loss, an angry Ali warns Shaakir to leave the country. What follows next is a gripping and fast paced thriller of emotions - love, honesty, loyalty, betrayal - with twists and turns till the final scenes.

Google Pakistan, fix your Punjabi

I just found that Google has a Google Pakistan site, and it offers English, Urdu and Punjabi language. The Urdu portion works properly and uses the correct arabic script/fonts but the Punjabi script is actually incorrect. I suppose this is a bit of a cultural faux pas on Googles part, although I can't really blame them for the honest mistake. It's not easy to understand the intricacies of other cultures and languages, especially in this case. The problem is that Google.com.pk displays Punjabi in the Gurmukhi script, when it should actually be in the Arabic script. Gurmukhi is the script used for the Punjabi language in India, but Arabic script is used in Pakistan. The difference is quite severe, I can read arabic script but can't read a single thing in Gurmukhi. Anyways, the point is, Google.com.pk needs to change the script for Punjabi over to arabic. Incidentally, almost 60% of the Pakistani population is Punjabi speaking.

ObHistoryLesson> The image to the left shows a sufi saints tomb in Jalalpur Sharif, Punjab, Pakistan. Jalalpur Sharif is also the location where Alexander fought with the leader of the area, Porus. Alexandars famous horse, Bucephalus is also buried nearby. [more historial info] Oh, and they use arabic script for Punjabi in Jalalpur Sharif. ;)

Al Jazeera Urdu for PAKISTAN

Al Jazeera Urdu is a forthcoming channel from Al Jazeera. An Urdu language version catering mainly to Pakistan. It is offered as part of the ARY Digital Network.
Al Jazeera English has stated objectives of emphasizing news from the developing world, of "reversing the North to South flow of information" and of "setting the news agenda". The latter is the channel's main slogan. Some observers, including media scholar Adel Iskandar, have commented that this focus can be seen, in the eyes of Western viewers, as casting Al Jazeera English as a global "alternative" news network, though the entire Al Jazeera brand has been heavily mainstreamed in many parts of the world.Other Al Jazeera English slogans and catchphrases include: "EVERY ANGLE EVERY SIDE", "ALL THE NEWS ALL THE TIME", "fearless journalism" and "If it's newsworthy, it gets on air, whether it's Bush or Bin Laden." Al Jazeera's Code of Ethics mirrors some of these statements.

First Pakistani Muslim women in British Parliment

Sayeeda Warsi, who has become shadow minister for community cohesion, is thought to be the first Muslim to reach such a prominent position in British politics.
Although not well known to the public, she has a high profile among David Cameron's Conservatives.
Having served as a special adviser on community relations to previous leader Michael Howard, she has been a vice-chairman of the party since 2005.
In 2004, she gave up her job as a solicitor - and a £130,000 annual salary - to stand for Parliament in her home town of Dewsbury, West Yorkshire.
She lost to Labour's Shahid Malik, but will now be given a peerage to enable her to enter the shadow cabinet.
Ms Warsi - who is married with a daughter - says her admiration for Conservative principles is inspired by the example of her father, who made his way from working in a mill to running a £2m-a-year bed manufacturing firm.
She is fluent in Punjabi, Urdu and Gujarati, and Mr Cameron will be hoping Ms Warsi can reach out to communities with low levels of Tory support.
Ms Warsi has, however, been quite outspoken in her views. She has criticised state schools for offering "too politically correct" a curriculum.
She is also against all-women shortlists for Tory parliamentary candidates.
During her career, the 36-year-old has worked with Pakistan's Ministry of Law on a project to fight forced marriage.
She told the BBC News website in 2005: "There has been a terrible myth created that it's an Asian issue, worse still, a Muslim issue. There is no place for it, certainly in Islam."
Educated at Leeds University, she describes herself as a "Northern, working-class roots, urban working mum" and says the Tories have a "real commitment" to engaging "with real people".
Her new job will give Ms Warsi the chance to do just that.

HIJAB as a part of UNIFORM

London Metropolitan Police accepted hijab as a part of Police uniform, optional for Muslim women who are serving in the police force.The announcement was made in a conference in London, whose theme is “Protect and Respect: Everybody’s Benefit”.
This move is the sign of accepting Britain as a religiously diverse society where different faith related accommodations are consider for individuals.
Constable Maha Sukkar is the first Victoria Police officer to wear a traditional Muslim hijab as part of her uniform. The navy, lightweight hijab, specifically designed for Constable Sukkar, has Velcro to enable its release should she get caught in a physical scuffle
Along with this IKEA also launches his own-brand hijab - a Muslim head scarf- for its Muslim staff.

KHUDA KE LIYE - In the name of GOD

I am not fond of Pakistani movies but sometime out of the industry people make some very good movies which are worth to watch.The Film KHUDA KE LIYE - In the name of GOD is also one of them.The director of this movie is Shoaib Mansoor which is one of the best creative personality in Pakistan in the field of media.
Here is the synopsis of the movie from the original website of KHUDA KE LIYE - In the name of GOD
The film is about the difficult situation in which Pakistanis in particular and the Muslims in general are caught up since 9/11.There is a war going on between the fundamentalist and the liberal Muslims.This situation is creating a drift not only between the Western world and the Muslims but also within the Muslim community.The educated and modern Muslims are in difficult situation because of their approach towards life and their western attire.They are criticized and harassed by the fundamentalist and the other hand the western world sees them as potential suspects of terrorism just because of their Muslim names.This paradox is resulting in great suffering for a forward looking Muslim.

This is the theme of the film " KHUDA KE LIYE" which in English means " IN THE NAME OF GOD".

The interesting thing about the film is how it connects the happenings in the three continents.Unlike the usual Indian and Pakistani films based on romantic sagas, dances and songs, the film is based on some very serious issues, raising a lot of controversial questions engaging the Muslim minds these days.It helps the Muslims youth find a direction.... the right direction, which we all are looking towards.
The cast of this movie is mainly from Pakistan in which Shan and Iman Ali are in lead role, from India Nsseeruddin Shah and first time from Hollywood Austin Marie Sayre.

The songs of this movie is also brilliant specially this song "BUNDEYA"

kahan ho janab??

logo for 2012 London Olympics, A shame

At last after one year's effort and the expense of £ 400,000 the official logo of 2012 London Olympics was revealed yesterday.But what came out was really a shock for Londoners and soon it converted into world shock.London is famous for designing and people from all over the world come here to study designing and graphics, but after seeing this logo lot of students change their mind and thinking to go somewhere else to complete their studies.Everybody is trying to understand that what on earth is this supposed to be? Its totally a rubbish design, and the sad thing is this that £ 400,000 tax payers money is spent on this absolutely awkward design.Its an embarrassment for London design industry.Even Sir Alen sugar's apprentice can design better thing than this.

The Spokesman for the RNIB said; "We think it looks amazing".

We should demand a public enquiry into what is a misuse of public funds and giving statement like "We think it looks amazing".Congratulations on wasting £400.000.

Public Warning: Please don't try to appraoch Olympic Logo designer, this can be dangerous for you.

America's Got Talent

How fast one can change the clothes ? normally take two three minutes or more.A couple in America's Got Talent show perform their act in which they change their clothes in unbelievable speed which is really amazing , when they perform every body was still and and try to figure it out that how they do that.The video is about two minutes and you can see it clearly if you don't enlarge it.Have fun.

That's quite amazing. Even my boss can't change his mind that fast and my boss is usually very fast and frequent at changing his mind.

Have you ever Push the TRAIN ??

In third world its daily routine to push the cars early in the morning, most of the time it happens with you when you are ready to go to office or in other hurry and when you leave the home, you just see your neighbour struggling with his car to start it and as soon as he sees you he calls you that please come here and push the car so he can start it, you have no choice other than to say yes, because its your neighbour and its your moral duty to help the neighbours in problem, so you put your bag on the road and give him fake smile and start pushing the car and if you are lucky enough you get help from school going kids who feel very happy to participate in this daily exercise, if the matter is only with car, than its fine, but think about this that if you are sitting in the train and train suddenly stop and the driver ask you to push the train, than what you will do ? its happened in India in the state of Bihar when one passenger pulled the emergency chord and the train stop but when driver again start the train, it refused to go ahead because its stop in the neutral-zone (a small section where there is no electrical current) and so train cant be start.Normally trains have enough momentum to pass through this zone without power but in this case train stop exact in the neutral zone, so the driver ask the passengers to get out from the train and push it remaining 12 feet so it can reach the power zone.The train took half an hour to travel on these 12 feet.

Fake GOOGLEs are in

Every body have listen this term that " FAKE IT IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT " , most of us just smile on this , but there are people who not only smile but actually act on it, yes Goggle got this problem.
According to Google a Dutchman Marcel van der Werf is using the word Google in his website addresses which is not according to law and he is preparing to take this matter in court.But the Dutchman says that according to his knowledge a brand can be related to a product not with the word.So there is a War of the Words.
some of the domains which use the word Google like Googledatingsite.nl, Googleonlineshop.com, Googlecommunity.nl and Googlestore.nl. were prevously hosted from the United Kingdom.But now UK have closed these sites and the owner move the sites to Russian Servers where he is safe from Americans.
I think i should also start sites like Yahoosoody, Yahooshops, Yahooauctions and make some fortune and if problem come than i will move the sites to Russia too, to be safe and sound.Good idea han.
