Smog in Punjab: Precautions You Need to Take

By

Oct 29, 2024

Smog has become a serious health hazard over the past years, particularly in Punjab. It irritates your eyes, throat, and lungs. More than this it worsens respiratory conditions such as asthma.

Unfortunately, for those with chronic illnesses, smog makes matters far worse. Lahore, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, and Multan have frequently reported extreme levels of worsened air quality. To protect yourself, these next few precautionary steps are essential for your well-being.

How To Stay Safe During Smoggy Days

1. Limit outdoor activities

Spend more time indoors on days when air quality levels are poor, especially if you live in high-traffic areas. Add air purifiers in every room, and plants such as aloe-vera, and snake plant to improve the air around you naturally.

2. Wear Masks Outdoors To Protect Yourself

Use a face mask to reduce the amount of harmful particles you inhale. The N95 mask in particular is recommended for smoggy days. Bike users should also wear protective glasses to shield their eyes from dusty air.

3. Monitor Air Quality

Stay updated on local Air Quality Index (AQI) levels and follow health advisories. Either download apps, or follow reliable websites to make ensure you’re not at the wrong place at the wrong time.

4. Hydrate and Rest To Protect Yourself

Drink lots of water to keep your respiratory system hydrated. This hydration will replenish your respiratory system. Plus, take breaks in shaded areas if you have to be outside.

5. Reduce Pollution

Every little contribution matters! Protect yourself and those around you by driving less, avoiding smoking, and minimizing any activities that can contribute to air pollution. If you must drive, drive slowly and use headlights during smoggy conditions to stay safe.

It’s important to be vigilant of your surroundings when the environment is not safe. Health is definitely not something to laze around about either. Grab your N95 masks now! and remain in clean environments.

The founder of TikTok parent company, ByteDance, Zhang Yiming, is now China’s richest person, the first in a long line of significant changes in China’s wealth profile.

He has an estimated net worth of $49.3 billion. He surpassed the former champion, Zhong Shanshan, the founder of bottled water company Nongfu Spring, whose wealth dropped to $47.9 billion.

This implies that digital innovation still takes the cake over traditional industries since ByteDance keeps on increasing its global presence and revenues despite headwinds that come with new regulations.

ByteDance’s Global Expansion Drives Revenue Growth

In 2021, Zhang resigned as ByteDance’s CEO; however, his company’s flagship, TikTok, remains popular around the world.

In 2023, ByteDance experienced a 30% surge in revenue, reaching an astonishing $110 billion, fueled by the company’s potential to capitalize on advertising and data-driven trends on a global level.

Zhang’s path from entrepreneur to China’s richest man is one of impressive and historic proportions, particularly against the backdrop of shifting economies, regulatory pressures, and the high-stakes competitiveness of the tech world.

In one of the most significant comments on the upheaval of wealth in China, Rupert Hoogewerf, chairman of the Hurun Report, said that billionaires in real estate, renewables, and manufacturing, saw sharpest declines in wealth.

China has had one pretty challenging economic year and has seen a real downtrend in stock markets,” and this hit real estate ‘the hardest, where perhaps the most brutal change overall is at the top ten'”.

For example, tycoons in the realm of solar panels and lithium batteries were battered by sharp declines triggered by both competition as well as uncertainties in tariffs along with related issues. Cases such that their wealth stood up to 80 percent low against what it had gone up last year.

Zhang Yiming’s rise signals the evolving nature of China’s economy, where technological innovation, rather than traditional sectors, increasingly defines wealth and influence. As ByteDance’s success story unfolds, Zhang’s journey is a testament to the vast potential within the tech world, inspiring a new generation of entrepreneurs in China and beyond.

Aaqib Javed Steps Back From Consideration For White-Ball Coaching Role

By

Oct 29, 2024

aaqib-javed-pcb-pakistan-head-coach-champions-trophy-aqib

Former Pakistan pacer Aaqib Javed has expressed his lack of interest in taking up the role of the national team’s white-ball head coach. He has made it clear that he wants to focus solely on his responsibilities as a selector.

However, he is eyeing the role of Director of High Performance, where he can make a significant impact by nurturing new talent.

Aaqib’s Focus: Selection, Not Coaching

It’s refreshing to see Aaqib Javed stick to his guns. He’s shown interest in developing fresh talent rather than juggling multiple roles. This dedication to a specific role is crucial for the future of the game in Pakistan, especially as we look for the next wave of cricketing stars.

Rumours had been swirling that Aaqib might step in as head coach after Gary Kirsten’s ouster, but he seemed taken aback when he saw his name linked with such discussions. It’s understandable; he has previously criticized the dual roles held by former coach Misbah-ul-Haq, who faced scrutiny for balancing coaching and selection duties.

Rizwan’s Role as Captain

In a related turn of events, Mohammad Rizwan, our newly appointed white-ball captain, has received clarity on his position within the team. While his role as captain is crucial, it will be limited to providing input during the selection process.

Initially, Rizwan was hesitant about this restriction, but he ultimately agreed to the arrangement. It’s a significant shift for him, moving from a position of authority to one where his input will be more advisory.

This transition raises questions about the influence of players in selection matters. Will Rizwan be able to truly advocate for his teammates, or will the selectors call all the shots?

With these changes, it’s clear that Pakistan cricket is entering a new era. Aaqib Javed is poised to take on a pivotal role in developing talent, while Mohammad Rizwan navigates the complexities of captaincy and selection.

Ramiz Raja Addresses Backlash Over Mocking Shan Masood

Oct 29, 2024

ramiz-raja-clarifies-mocking-shan-masood-ramiz-raja-overwhelmed-by-psl-comeback-reception

Pakistan’s former PCB chairman and well-known commentator, Ramiz Raja has responded to the backlash he has been facing since mocking the national Test captain Shan Masood during an interview.

On Saturday, Pakistan defeated England in the third Test to clinch a 2-1 Test series win, a victory that broke a three-and-a-half-year dry spell for home Test series wins.

One would think all the chatter would be about the team’s achievement, however, Ramiz Raja managed to steal some of that spotlight with his remarks about Shan Masood.

The Comments That Sparked the Fire

During the post-match broadcast, Ramiz directed some comments at Shan Masood that struck many as a bit too blunt. Social media users quickly labelled his tone as disrespectful. For some, it felt like an attack on Shan’s leadership, and Ramiz soon found himself under fire.

So, what exactly did he say? Ramiz questioned Shan’s patience after six consecutive Test losses, discussing Shan’s struggle with shots on the leg side. He also hinted at how fans and players tend to get too comfortable after one win, losing sight of the long road ahead.

Setting the Record Straight

In a recent video, Ramiz addressed the controversy, aiming to clear the air and refocus the discussion. According to him, his comments were not meant to “undermine Shan.”

Ramiz emphasized that as a commentator, questioning players and analyzing their performance is part of his role. “After six consecutive losses, I asked Shan how he maintained patience through the setbacks. Shan is like a son to me; we often discuss his batting,” he explained.

Ramiz also brought up an important point: his critics might not have seen the entire interview. He claimed that social media often pulls things out of context, suggesting that the backlash may have been based on partial clips or politically motivated agendas.

A Fine Line Between Critique and Respect

Ramiz’s comments may have been intended to motivate Shan, but many believe a national team captain deserves respect, especially after a big win.

Shan Masood, a captain coming off a major series win, certainly doesn’t have it easy. His patience and resilience after a string of tough games deserve recognition too.

That’s where fans feel Ramiz might have missed the mark—his timing was seen as insensitive, especially given that the team was still basking in the glory of a historic victory.

Users will also be able to delete stock apps like App Store, Camera, Photos, Messaging, or even Safari, and later redownload from an App Installation feature in the Settings app.

iOS 18.2 release date

In a welcome announcement for Apple enthusiasts, the Tim Cook led tech giant shared on Monday, “New Apple Intelligence features will be available in December, with additional capabilities rolling out in the coming months.”

Fakhar Zaman Breaks Ties With ‘SAYA’ After Babar Azam Tweet

Oct 29, 2024

fakhar-zaman-breaks-ties-with-saya-after-babar-azam-tweet-could-fakhar-zaman-be-pakistan-white-ball-captain

Fakhar Zaman, Pakistan’s dynamic opening batter, has officially parted ways with his player agent company, Saya Corporation. His brother, Gohar Zaman, confirmed the decision on social media, surprising fans and stirring up some speculation.

With Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam still signed under Saya, Fakhar’s departure seems to hint at deeper issues behind the scenes. So, what exactly led to Fakhar’s break with Saya, and why is everyone talking about a tweet?

The Tweet That Sparked It All

Let’s rewind a bit. A few weeks ago, Fakhar Zaman took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express his discontent over the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) decision to drop Babar Azam from the second and third Test matches against England.

He didn’t hold back, referencing Virat Kohli’s struggles with form between 2020 and 2023 and how India stood by their star during his slump. Fakhar pointed out, “India didn’t bench Virat Kohli during his rough stretch… If we’re considering sidelining our premier batsman… it could send a deeply negative message.”

It was a bold statement, and Fakhar’s loyalty to Babar was evident. But PCB wasn’t too pleased. The cricket board slapped Fakhar with a show-cause notice, claiming his tweet violated their code of conduct.

According to the board, national players should steer clear of public criticism regarding selection decisions. And soon after, Fakhar’s name was missing from the central contracts list for the 2024-25 season.

The Alleged Agent Drama

As if the PCB notice and central contract omission weren’t enough, Fakhar’s agency, Saya Corporation, was also pulled into the drama. Rumors began swirling that Fakhar’s agent had posted content that didn’t sit well with him.

The story goes that a social media post, possibly timed to favour Babar Azam, may have added fuel to Fakhar’s frustrations. With the timing of that post under scrutiny, Fakhar decided he’d had enough, prompting his departure from Saya.

While neither Fakhar nor Saya Corporation have openly confirmed the reasons, sources suggest that Fakhar may have felt the agency was not fully aligned with his interests, especially regarding his role in Pakistan’s team and his opinions on its direction.

5 Things You Need to Know Before Switching to EV

By

-

Oct 28, 2024

Purchasing an electric vehicle (EV) may be a thrilling prospect, but one that also requires great research before you make the big change from a traditional fuel-powered car.

However, if you’ve made up your mind to shift to an EV, here’s all the knowledge need to be equipped with:

1. Travel Distance and Electricity Refueling

One essential thing to consider while choosing an EV is its driving range – the distance it can cover on one complete charge.

The driving range among the pool of available models differs considerably, spanning from 200 miles for the entry-level versions to over 500 miles for premium options like Lucid Air. One must critically evaluate their routine driven miles and local refueling stations to define their optimal range.

Before buying an electric car: 10 essential questions — Source: Power Energy

Recharging your EV is feasible both at one’s own place, or during transit, although you may need to make some electrical modifications at home if you plan on going the domestic charging route.

Diverse options for public charging may be available, featuring distinct speeds and access facilities. Rapid chargers, primarily stationed at communal booths, can replenish your battery within a duration as short as 20 minutes. However, slower counterparts of Level 1 and Level 2 chargers might necessitate extended periods spanning multiple hours.

2. Expenditure and Stimulus

EVs generally portray a steeper price tag upfront as compared to the traditional gasoline-powered cars.

Nevertheless, notable long-term savings can be made on fuel and upkeep costs. Furthermore, federal tax remunerations and other stimuli could aid in counterbalancing the initial procurement cost. An instance would be the Hyundai Ioniq 6 which becomes even more appealing with its efficiency and endowed features when coupled with incentives.

3. Functionality and Inviting Interiors

Modern-day EVs assure gracious, serene rides with superior speed amplification. Models such as the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV9 feature appealing interiors and straightforward controls, assuring a fluid transition for drivers who are yet to experience EVs. Specifically, the Ioniq 5 takes the limelight with its user-accommodating architecture and swift charging capacity. Similarly, the Kia EV9 receives accolades for its commodious layout catering to large families.

4. Future-Proofing with Charging Standards

Charging standards are evolving, with more manufacturers adopting the North American Charging Standard (NACS) for compatibility with Tesla’s extensive Supercharger network. This change means some new models, like the Ioniq 5, can access a wider range of fast chargers.

Electric vehicle battery - Wikipedia — Source: Wiki Leaks

5. Available Models

The EV market has a growing variety of options, from affordable models to high-performance luxury vehicles. Hyundai’s Ioniq 6 and Lucid Air exemplify this diversity, with the former offering efficient, budget-friendly transportation and the latter providing high-end performance and range.

Choosing an EV involves balancing range, charging needs, and costs. With federal incentives, a wide selection of models, and advancements in charging infrastructure, EVs are increasingly viable for everyday drivers looking for eco-friendly options without compromising on convenience or performance.

Bollywood To Use AI For Editing, Dubbing?

By

-

Oct 28, 2024

AI is ready to take over the filmmaking world, with reports suggesting that it may be incorporated into diverse filmmaking components such as dubbing, editing, scriptwriting, and even production management.

The dawn of such AI technology in Bollywood is set to herald in a new age in the Indian cinematic universe, led actively by G42, a firm headquartered in Abu Dhabi.

Reimagining Dubbing in the Indian Film Industry

A notable aspect of G42’s technology is AI-embedded dubbing, committed to reshaping the art for increasingly diverse Indian localities.

Manu Jain, G42 India CEO, states that this technology can offer dubbing in an array of languages while keeping intact the distinct voice of the actor. For instance, celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan or Akshay Kumar can have their dialogues rendered in languages like Tamil or Telugu without any compromise on their unique vocal notes.

This evolution would mean a more engulfing experience as film enthusiasts will be able to indulge in their love for movies in their mother tongue!

Unifying with Bollywood for Elevated Production

G42’s foray into Bollywood has significance extending beyond just dubbing.

With a legacy of pioneering AI, that includes the creation of Condor Galaxy, regarded as the world’s prime AI supercomputer, and Jais, which is recognized as the first open-source Arabic language model, G42 will also spearhead their expertise into meeting Bollywood’s production requisites.

From aiding in script organisation to efficient scheduling and workflow, embedding AI will promise enhanced efficacy and personalisation in content creation.

A monumental G42 roll out scheduled for India is Nanda; a high-volume Hindi language model, (LLM), schooled on in excess of two trillion tokens.

Primed for cinema-centric uses, Nanda positions Bollywood to churn out content that resonates more profoundly with the Hindi-speaking audience. It marks a noteworthy stride towards marrying language-specific AI with India’s entertainment business.

AI in Music and Global Impact

The influence of AI isn’t limited to traditional film production. Notable filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has embraced AI for music production, announcing that his new venture, RGV Den Music, will exclusively use AI-generated music for his upcoming projects. This reflects a broader trend seen in Hollywood, where studios like Warner Bros and Disney are exploring AI for data analytics and story development.

However, as AI’s role in the creative industry grows, so do concerns over its impact on artistry. While AI can streamline production, critics like filmmaker Christopher Nolan caution that over-reliance on technology could diminish the human touch in storytelling, a debate that Bollywood will likely face as it increasingly adopts AI-driven solutions.

Asma Abbas is a name both in Pakistani television and movies. She has won thousands of hearts with her powerful performances, as well as her energetic presence in the entertainment arena. With a career crossing decades, she is always remembered for her roles in many hit dramas, epitomizing versatility and the potential to do great work.

Beyond her acting, Asma is indeed an observer of the situation and often shares about the issues affecting contemporary relations. Recently, she discussed the effects of the highly rated drama Bismil with the audience and the modern societal challenges it reflected.

Influence of Bismil on Gaze

As Bismil continues to impress audiences, Asma Abbas stresses its relevance in responding to the most pertinent needs of society today. “It is more than mere entertainment,” she believes: “It reflects the bitter realities and struggles that many relationships face in the world today.” Bismil’s interesting plot and engaging characters make it possible for discussions about love, cheating, and problems couples often face. According to Asma, the drama does pretty much motivate viewers to reflect upon their relationships and consider what may contribute to the dynamics.

The Reasons for Failure in Relationships

In her commentary, Asma Abbas comments on why relationships fail so much in the present age. She views the young generations, especially women, as generally losing control of their expressions and choices.

According to her, this lesser control brings about misunderstandings and conflicts in marriages. Asma believes that proper relationships evolve due to healthy communication. She states that in a world where communication holds the key, it becomes imperative to enable people to express their thoughts and emotions freely.

The Importance of Thoughtful Decision-Making

Asma further advises people not to jump into decisions about relationships without weighing the pros and cons. She emphasizes that it is through weighing the pros and cons that one avoids making fast decisions that may later give cause for regret.

“Life is about balance,” she says, “and it’s essential to approach significant decisions with a clear mind and a thoughtful perspective.” By encouraging these steps, Asma also hopes to inspire the view of more deliberate actions and choices.

A Call for Reflection and Growth

These understandings with Asma Abbas bring to light that for a relationship, these interlinked themes of communication and reflection are the real strength of Bismil. The drama entertains its audience but at the same time encourages discussion and understanding about the events taking place in their lives as well as in their relationships.

Through watching Bismil, audiences do not see some kind of plot line unfolding before them; they’re rather uncovering the realities and intricacies of love and partnership in this very fast-moving modern world.

Through her observations, Asma continues to participate in the dialogue surrounding relationships, calling people to a place of understanding and intentional choice. As she articulates, “In traversing the complexities of love and life, we are always meant to strive towards awareness and growth.”

It is with this thoughtful commentary that Asma Abbas provides further relevance to introspection in making healthy and enriching relationships within today’s society.

Hira Mani Gets Hypnotized on Stage in a Paranormal Twist

Hira was invited to be hypnotized on stage, an experience designed to tap into the mind’s unexplored regions. Just in time for the spooky season, Hira Mani recently appeared on a show dedicated to paranormal activities and supernatural encounters. The idea behind the show was to test the limits between reality and the unknown, bringing the viewer into a world of mystery as part of this innovative setup.

During this stage of the program, its hypnotist would employ a doll to duplicate a symbolic relationship with Hira. Through hypnosis performance, Hira enters a very deep trance because she goes along with the actions being performed upon the doll while thinking she is under some connection with the doll, physically attached.

That episode left the audience wholly enthralled as if Hira had immersed herself in her deep trance as her body followed on with the doll. It was a moment that combined excitement with curiosity, which captured the eerie essence of the paranormal and gave goosebumps to the onlookers.

Hira Mani’s Hypnotic Experience to Remember

Mohammad Rizwan Takes A Dig At ‘King’ Babar Azam After Becoming Captain

Mohammad Rizwan replaced Babar Azam as the white-ball captain of the Pakistan cricket team and his first assignment will be the six-match series against Australia next month.

Babar Azam’s time as Pakistan’s white-ball captain had its ups and downs. He’ll always be remembered for the historic win against India in the 2021 T20 World Cup and for taking Pakistan to the 2022 T20 World Cup final. But since then, it’s been a rough ride.

Pakistan fell short in the 2024 T20 World Cup and couldn’t make it past the group stage in the 2023 ODI World Cup. After a brief stint with Shaheen Afridi at the helm, Babar returned as captain—only to be replaced now by Rizwan.

For fans, it’s a bittersweet shift. Babar isn’t out of the picture, though; he’s back in the squad, along with Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah, for the Australia series. But the bigger question remains: Can Rizwan turn the tide for Pakistan’s white-ball game?

Rizwan’s Statement: “Not a King, but a Servant”

Rizwan’s first press conference as captain was full of humility—and a subtle edge. When asked about his approach to leadership, Rizwan gave an interesting response. He emphasized that he’s not here to be a “king” but to serve his team. In his words, “If I start considering myself a king as captain, then everything will fall apart.”

This could be a subtle dig at Babar, who fans and teammates often refer to as “king.” While Rizwan didn’t directly target his predecessor, it’s hard not to read between the lines. His approach seems to be less about the spotlight and more about teamwork and grit. It’s clear Rizwan is already setting a different tone, one that puts service over status.

Salman Ali Agha’s New Role

The squad for the upcoming tours has another notable shift. Salman Ali Agha has been named vice-captain across all four white-ball squads. When Rizwan sits out the T20I series in Zimbabwe, Salman will lead the team.

Rizwan and Salman represent a fresh perspective, and both have strong records in domestic cricket and solid reputations as team players.

As we head into the series, all eyes will be on Mohammad Rizwan. His journey from dependable wicketkeeper to team leader is an inspiring one, and now he’s got the chance to write his own story.

Whether he’ll be able to elevate Pakistan’s game remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure—this chapter in Pakistan cricket is just getting started, and Rizwan seems more than ready for the challenge.
