This Pakistani guy is an Education Consultant by profession. Maybe talking about education seemed dry, but he went a bit off track yesterday and posted something majorly different. He posted a photo of himself holding a gun supporting on his shoulder. In the background, there was the night sky and a sofa. He added the caption:

“Can anyone edit this photo and make me look shareef (innocent)? Also, remove Sofa too.

Let’s check your creativity.”

And we all remember the overflowing creativity of Pakistanis when Abhinandan had our fantastic tea or the supposed civil war in Karachi. So Pakistanis were not far behind in entertaining the thought of showcasing their creativity. Thus the flood began. People started commenting with their creative angle on the post. If you don’t have popcorns ready, do so now because this will be an entertaining ride!

Because if Google went down, we have to blame someone!

And what better use of a gun that is holding Google at gunpoint (just Karachi things).

How do you else do you justify this pose if not here?

Posing like the lady from Southern America

Of course, the gun shoots out an umbrella. So innocent!

The vegetable bag

Holding a gun or a vegetable bag for your mom, same difference.

Innocent is overrated

This editor is far beyond pretending to be innocent for rishta pictures. So he thought if one does not look innocent, make him own it. This looks better than the original, though.

Cat is always innocent! Ask any cat lover

So this editor stuck with the fundamentals. He removed the sofa as asked; all that remained was to make Qutaiba look innocent with a gun. Of course, a cat was the answer.

Shadi decor, the best cover

Even in COVID, we could not refrain from full-fledged wedding celebrations. Like we cover up important issues such as psychological problems and man child behaviors with shaadi, why not cover the gun too. Quick thinking!

Image Source: Facebook

The best one yet, though!

He did ask to make him look ‘Shareef.’

There were already above one thousand comments, but these were what we liked best. If you think there is another photoshop creation that deserves mention in this post, do let us know in the comments.

Global Semiconductor Chip Shortage Causes Car Assembly Delays In Pakistan

Image Source: The New York Times

In this current day and age, most electronic and mechanical products come with a host of gadgets and features added on. For every device, gadget, and process to work smoothly, everything is controlled through a microprocessor. These tiny, yet complex devices offer versatile technological capabilities to help control various functions within many devices, including cars. From the car’s internal temperature to other automated functions, these silicon chips work as the center through which all functions of the car are routed.

Due to the extensive adverse economic issues caused by COVID-19, economies worldwide slowly began recovering with the resumption of industrial and in turn, trade operations. However, an unprecedented observation was made. There was a wholly unexpected surge in demand which led to a severe shortage of microprocessors that circled back to car manufacturers who were unable to meet the growth in demand.

Pakistan’s automobile manufacturing sector faces the same scenario as observed globally. With the rapid increase in the demand and hence, production plants in Pakistan also faced challenges in sourcing the required microprocessors. Companies are racing against time and circumstance to catch up to the surge in the market demand and restore the flow of their disrupted supply chain processes and operations. Even Original Equipment Manufacturers that have arrived in the Pakistani market relatively recently and are in the process of establishing their operations are facing the impact caused by the chip shortage. International auto giants such as General Motors Company, Volkswagen, Toyota, Honda and Ford will be facing a loss of possible sales of over $ 61 billion this year alone.

The average lead time for fulfilling bulk orders has gone up from 12 weeks to 26 weeks which is a massive shift – which made delays near unavoidable, almost completely halting the manufacturing of electronic hardware. This, in turn, has led to a price hike in the electronic products market as well.

However, with this production crisis that the automobile industry is facing, especially with the ongoing advent and normalization of electric cars, industry leaders and governments are making a tumultuous effort to combat this crisis. Large-scale investment is being poured in, as stakeholders worldwide aim to add greater capacity for contingencies in the global supply of the microprocessor manufacturing industry. With the large scale efforts being made, along with the continuous demand, it is believed that the recession will be momentary and industries that are affected by the shortage in the supply of microprocessors will soon be operational at full efficiency.

Nabila Speaks Up Against Recent On-Going Controversy

Image Source: Express Tribune

[Update]: Nabila was accused by Nadia Hussain of not having a sportsman spirit when the latter more or less copied her product. She took to her Instagram posting her side of the story and man, is she throwing some shade.

She basically gives facts about how original and novel her idea was. And quoting Oscar Wilde, she hinted that she is flattered that other people are copying her idea.



[May 24th, 2021]:

Has Nadia Hussain Ripped Off Nabilas Make Up Palette?

Nadia Hussain hoped to launch her latest GO Makeup Palette in high spirits. However, it seems her competitor lost the sportsmanship and decided to rain on the parade. Learn more about the trouble in paradise, the makeup industry edition.

Go Makeup Palette by Nadia Hussain

Nadia Hussain recently revealed a product she had been working on for a long time. It’s called the GO Makeup palette and the name is as self-explanatory as it gets! 

With this palette, she hopes to reimagine makeup with ease instead of an inconvenience. You have somewhere to be ASAP? Pick up the portable palette which has all the essentials. You’ll look your best in no time! 

Featuring conceal, cover, contour, highlight and colour, it has everything you need to make you look your best. Get all this in only Rs.3500.

Nabila’s Zero Makeup Palette

The problem arises when the palette is compared to Nabila’s ZERO palette. One has to be living under a rock to be unaware of this palette now. Multiple times award-winning makeup artist Nabila launched this product several years ago.

 

View this post on Instagram

 

A post shared by Daisiii..😉 (@daisiiii44)

It is a compact kit featuring four ingredients for a flawless face! Conceal, cover, contour and colour. It comes in various shades according to skin colour in which the four compartments are adjusted accordingly. It has enjoyed incredible popularity and is priced at Rs. 5900.

Showdown between Competitors

Soon after Nadia Hussain announced the Go Makeup palette, Nabila sent her a message! Nadia Hussain has attached all screenshots and proofs to show her side of the story. Sure Nabila’s message reading “do you have no brain of your own” could’ve been better worded.

On-the-go makeup kits have become the norm globally and both creations are only a contribution to the trend. Nadia Hussain’s product is neither a copy of Zero nor a dig at Nabila. Then why the conflict?

Such conflicts are common when the skeletal design may be the same. For instance, both are compact kits offering the same ease to their customers. However, the go palette does feature ‘highlight’ which Zero makeup does not.

President Pakistan Meets The First Female Pilot From AJK

Maryam Mujtaba

Celebrating women as they enter industries they were never given the opportunity to enter is very important. For too long, our society has supported an unequal representation in the workforce. Hence, when a woman defies the existing markers of the patriarchal society, they deserve praise. When this happens, they become leaders and sources of inspiration; one such inspiration is the first female pilot.

President meets the first female pilot

Not only is she the first female pilot, but she belongs to Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK). Maryam Mujtaba achieved this position as part of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA). For this, influential personalities praised her. And when Presidents of not just AJK but the President of Pakistan acknowledge you, you know you are on the right track.

AJK President Sardar Masood Khan called her the bravest role model. Throughout the talk, he showered praise on Maryam. For this purpose, they invited her with her husband, Mujtaba Rathore. This meeting was held at Aimwan-i-Sadr.

A little about Maryam Mujtaba

The pilot got her license at Rawalpindi after receiving her initial aviation training. Later, she also got a license at Century Air, the New Jersey-based flight academy.

To delve into her life, we find that she belongs to Muzaffarabad. But originally, she is from a family of Kashmiri migrants who got refuge in the liberated territory. Moreover, the female pilot is married to the deputy superintendent of the AJK Police. Indeed, this shows that the escapees of the occupied territory feel safe and welcome at AJK.

Seeing her success, Special Communications Organisation (SCO) has appointed her as the brand ambassador in AJK and Gilgit Baltistan. Hopefully, this success will inspire more people in seeing their women succeed.

AJK president said:

“You have inspired and encouraged several women in the liberated territory to consider aviation as a promising career.”

Audi Set To Build Network Of Lounge-Style EV Charging Stations

Image Source: YouTube

Audi is one of the fastest advancing brands of today. They have quite a lot of potential within them to be the best ones. When you see an Audi being driven down the street, you can’t help but notice its presence. It is not only one of the best brands but one of the most premium ones too.

Additionally, the electric line of Audi is one to have a glance at. Where we used to think that Tesla was the only front-runner for EVs, Audi is now one too. They refer to their electric line as ‘E-tron’ and they have quite a lot of spectacular vehicles. They not only allow the company to expand their horizons but test out new fields too. Not everyone is about electricity and it is quite a great accomplishment to be in such an area.

Audi Charging Hubs

It seems that Audi is set to make some of its charging hubs in the world. It intends to start with Germany and with a total count of six. However, the construction of the hubs is not the only noteworthy thing here. Additionally, they intend to make these hubs with a  premium feel. Yes, they intend to give the hubs a lounge-type feel.

These charging hubs will have quite an immense amount of potential and capability. They are being referred to as super-chargers, with ranges of 300kW when it comes to charging. This means that the vehicle will go from 0 to 80% charge in less than 25 minutes! That is an impressive number. It not only guarantees premium quality but no compromise. After all, we are aware that Audi is not a brand that focuses on compromise, rather on the quality of it all.

The EV Lounge

Above the charging hubs themselves, there will be a lounge and a canteen present. This is to keep the drivers entertained while their car charges. Audi is being quite considerate with the need of their drivers. The hubs also feature solar panels on their roofs for additional battery power. Other than that, they intend to store energy from old EVs.

This shows that the charging station itself is not drawing a lot of power from the main grid. Rather, it is running on renewable energy, clean energy. The company also seems to be working on a bi-directional charging system. This means that cars will not only take energy and electricity from homes but store and give it away to the grid too. This is a huge step when it comes to saving energy and a clean future.

Audi Plans

We hope that Audi goes far in its plans for making such stations. It seems that the public would really love to use them, considering how convenient they are. Maybe we get to see their entry into Pakistan sometime in the future. Electric cars are making their way into the country, alongside charging stations. Audi may not be too far behind here.

Nausheen Shah Under Fire & Insults Designer Umar Sayeed

Actress Nausheen Shah has always been vocal when it came to stating her opinions. She doesn’t shy away from saying what she thinks is right. While that may be a good trait when you want to address bullying in an industry, it might not be that great if you are making irresponsible statements.

Nausheen Shah and marriage

Earlier, the celebrity who had taken the accusations by Yasir Hussain in a stride. When in an interview, the host had tried getting her to talk about it, she shut it down saying Yasir was an unimportant person for her. The same person took to Instagram stories expressing her frustration about her mother’s obsession with Nausheen’s marriage.

Now the terms that she used were problematic. She used extreme slang as an adjective for Pakistan. And it was clear that she had had a recent unpleasant talk with her mother which is where the anger came from so people were offended. They were offended at the idea that is this how she talks to her mother?

Umar Sayeed responds

As the drama usually plays out, when a celebrity makes a post, shares a story, or comments on someone else’s post, Instagram blogs reshare it. On one such platform, Galaxy Lollywood, the story was shared. A designer, Umar Sayeed commented from his official account on Galaxy’s post, a pretty mean comment. He said since she is not married, she is making such statements to save face.

Nausheen did not stray far behind

Angry at the statement, she replied right there. She said that he has no right to say this considering he is gay who sleeps around with men. She adds the phrase, ‘Allah Maaf kre’ (God forgive me).

Considering Pakistanis are already full of hate and discriminate against the gay community, as an influencer, she should have been careful at what she said.

Pakistanis Divided Over Seeing Israeli Flags On The Road

Image Source: Facebook

While some countries have adopted a neutral approach to Israel Palestine conflict, others are reluctant to appear anti-Israel. However, Pakistan has been amongst those nations that have actively shown support for Palestine. Aside from rallies, they have proved it by being the voice of the oppressed on social media. Amongst the acts of support is one that became controversial as well; painting Israeli flags on the road. Today, we will be talking about that.

Israeli flags on the road

One of the main Shahrahs of Karachi, Shahrah e Faisal witnessed an act that was difficult to categorize. But safe to say, it was the work of a few individuals who wanted to express hatred towards Israel and support Gaza, Palestine. What they had done was, paint Israel’s flag on the road to show how Pakistan is trampling on it.

Netizen on the matter

While some did present support for this act, others were not so much in favor. They said this act was a below-par act to insult a whole nation which shouldn’t have been used. They also called it a useless act; better use of the money would have been donating to Gaza.

Some people raised the objection that an act like this wouldn’t even affect Israel’s economy. Not to mention, it could lead to others using the same tactic of insult for our country’s flag.

israeli flagsAnother matter raised by one netizen was what the Israeli flag stands for. Instead of going into the detail of expressing their opinion, they just left a screenshot of the information.

According to this screenshot, the design of the Israel flag comes from an important aspect of Judaism; a belief which also exists in Islam. The star on the flag denotes the Shield of David. In Islamic terminology, David refers to Hazrat Daud, a Prophet in Islam.

The people, hence, said that disrespecting the flag meant disrespecting the Prophet.

Of course, it may not be what Pakistanis intended because it is quite possible that they were not aware of the origins of the flag. So let’s see if they are going to change their stance on this particular act of support.

6 Eye-Opening Facts You Didn’t Know About Apple

Image Source: medium.com

Apple is one of the biggest titans of the tech industry today. When one thinks about flagship products, one’s mind immediately moves towards Apple. Owning and using their products is to embrace a whole new ecosystem. They have their own norms as well as product types. Here we have a few facts about the company you might not know.

These facts range from many areas and can astonish you. You may not ever have heard of some of these things and that is okay. This list contains some stuff that even we have read about and heard of the first time. So let us waste no more time and dive into these eye-opening facts about Apple. Yes, we are referring to the company and not the fruit!

1. Sir Isaac Newton

While we know the rainbow apple to be the most famous logo, it was not the first one. According to sources, the first logo of Apple was Isaac Newton with an Apple about to fall on his head. Due to the level of detail that would have gone into making that logo small, it was scrubbed.

It was made by one of Apple’s initial stakeholders, Ronald Wayne. He was also one of the founders!

2. Selling A Calculator:

To gather and have the capital for the company, Steve Wozniak sold his scientific calculator. While this may not seem quite a lot now, it was a huge deal back then when such calculators were rare. To build the first of the parts for Apple I, this calculator was sold.

Imagine what it might have been worth today if it was $700 back then!

3. Apple I:

These days, the price tags on Apple products can be considered high. Back then, they were also considered quite a hefty investment. The Apple I was sold for $666 simply because it was easier to type. Imagine setting a price of a product because of convenience!

4. Macintosh:

The Apple Lisa was named after the daughter of Steve Jobs. However, the name Macintosh is derived from the variety of Apple. It ties in the entire fruit theme together and is considered ingenious. At first, people thought the name wouldn’t stick but it held too much staying power.

5. First Digital Camera

Apple was the one to make the mass-produced digital camera. It had the ability to take 8 photographs and to connect to a Mac via a serial port. The company was taking bounds forward at such a brisk pace. It is still considered ahead of its time in many aspects.

6. Battery Of An Apple

The chemistry behind Apple batteries is quite strong. Apple products use such robust batteries that they can be called bulletproof. Your MacBook might just save you from a gunshot!

5 Things That Make A Luxury Brand Expensive

luxury brand
Image Source: PurseBlog

If you or I go to buy at Louis Vuitton or Zara, for us, it would be like one shirt costing a leg. Or take the automotive brand Tesla and its car prices; they touch the limits of the sky. But what is it that makes a luxury brand so expensive? Let’s explore it a bit! Or more like, why do the people pay for it if it is that expensive?

1. The Brand Name

First of all, it is the brand name. If there are two almost similar products, most people will choose to buy them from a famous brand rather than an infamous place. Knowing this, the brands charge higher because they know people will come and buy it regardless of how much they charge the product.

2. Limited availability

Every product line a luxury brand produces is numbered. Be it a designer brand in Pakistan or an international luxury brand; they will make, let’s say, 100 or 1000 products. Now, since it is a piece of art that is available in a limited capacity, they have the space to increase the price of the product.

3. Sense of accomplishment

It’s a circle, really. People buy expensive products to feel accomplished, and when they have accomplished something, they would be able to buy expensive products.

4. More accountability

It is the trust that these brands will be more accountable, and they really are. All the defective branded products you will find in the market costing anything barely are there because if there is even a shred of a problem with a unit, they will discard it. You won’t find it in their stores.

5. Differentiating the circles

Not everyone can afford these products. So meaning that you can afford it puts you in a circle where others, like you, can afford it. And it differentiates you from people who cannot. So because their product can give their consumers a feeling of being in a higher socioeconomic circle, they charge higher.

That said, isn’t the phenomenon ‘expensive’ subjective? If one is at home with a particular product costing however much it is priced at, will we still call it expensive? If one is earning enough to be able to buy it, then well, why not?

These days every other Pakistani drama you see is about one partner cheating on the other. When some people raise this point, the producers say, ‘but this works.’ And that leads to us wondering why such an issue would work? It is merely because people cheat! So let’s see some reasons as to why people cheat in relationships.

1. Lack of Communication

Cheating usually is not impulsive; it is a result of problems existing already in a relationship. One of the most recurring reasons for a person’s infidelity is communication problems. If one person is disturbed or annoyed by their partners’ actions but doesn’t address the issue, it leads to dissatisfaction and, eventually, cheating. It can be said that cheating is a person trying to bring their emotions to light. Having open two-way communication is best for smooth sailing in relationships.

2. Falling out of love

Despite all the promises of loving each other together, many couples break up because one or both partners want to break up. The ones who don’t have enough courage to use vocabulary, use actions. However, this brings on a world of hurt on the other partner. The person who wants to leave the relationship cheats in an obvious way; this is an effort to get caught. And I reiterate, this happens when a person is not emotionally strong enough to say that they fell out of love.’

3. Confidence

Cheaters with a lack of self-confidence keep doing it again and again. They are not able to commit, but they are incredibly persuasive and end up persuading people that they are willing to settle. Insecurities and past traumas that a person has related to relationships boil up when they are in a relationship that is on the right track. Their dealing mechanism for this is cheating. This kind of infidelity is for people who are always seeking higher self-esteem. Even when they desire love, things get messy because of the mental restrictions on them.

4. Revenge or Punishment

When one person in a relationship is holding on to their anger and frustration because of their partner, they cheat to hurt their partner. The cheating is used to punish their partner for something else that happened. This kind of infidelity occurs only to serve as a platform for the release of anger. The cheater feels better when they think that their cheating punishes their partners even though the partner doesn’t know what they did wrong.

5. Loneliness

Sometimes couples do communicate but barely. Honestly, a relationship can not go on on just this. Instead of saying that they feel neglected or just lonely, the person cheats to experience being wanted. What they think will happen by cheating is that their loneliness will lessen. But instead, it just keeps on increasing, which will make them even more miserable than before. The cause is the same; the cheater wants to get rid of the void in their relationship.

People cheat in relationships. Does Will know these reasons lessen the frequency of such an act? No. Not directly. But if people explore it further to narrow down the root of such problems, maybe people would be more aware of what they are doing. And then, instead of cheating, they will be courageous enough to end or salvage their relationship in the right way.

Do Not Let Students Suffer For Choosing Cambridge

PEC

Lahore, 22nd May 2021: Pakistan Education Council (PEC), the representational body of leading private schools of Pakistan has expressed its concern over the educational decisions regarding the examinations, taken by the government of Pakistan.

PEC, in their statement, has made it clear that the decision to postpone exams of Cambridge O Level till October 2021 has put the academic progress of thousands of students at stake. These students will not only lose their motivation to study, but they will also lose the chances of getting admissions in FSc colleges. They will miss out on the precious academic time needed for the rigorous and challenging Intermediate and A level studies.

Mr. Imran Masood, the President of Pakistan Education Council said, “We appreciate the concerns of the government regarding the use of School Assessed Grades (SAGs). However, we want an urgent meeting with honorable Education Minister Mr. Shafqat Mahmood to discuss SAGs and other options. Through this meeting, we hope to devise a plan to protect the academic interests of innocent students at stake. Urgent action in this regard will help clear the confusion and provide parents and students some clarity of thought and direction.” He further added, “The decisions of the Government on the 2021 Cambridge Examinations have been taken in isolation without considering the views of educational institutions across the country. We, as educationists, believe that school assessed grades (SAG) are crucial and in the best interests of students. Failure to implement SAG will negatively impact the education and careers of our students.”

Therefore, considering the current situation PEC urges the education minister of Pakistan to look into this matter immediately.

Relationships between countries have often been quite long-lasting. Where there are rivalries between two places, there are also friendships. The entire world can always feel the conflict between two countries, and so can friendship. Today, we look at a tie that has been there for more than 70 years now. We are referring to the relationship between Pakistan and China.

These two have been neighbors ever since Pakistan was made independent in 1947. The two countries have moved forward with a glorious friendship, and in light of that, a new song has been released.

Pak – China Relations

The two countries have indeed been at peace with each other for a long time now. They have been present through thick and thin, and they have not shown any betrayal moves. Pakistan has been helpful to China in its endeavors and vice versa. China is one of the prime exporters of new vehicle brands towards Pakistan. Brands like Changan, Haval, and Sazgar are all set to be a part of Pakistan.

In fact, Changan has been one of the most popular brands in Pakistan since 2020. The pandemic has not hindered the relations between the two countries and has only strengthened them. China and Pakistan seem to be taking care of each other as the years progress, even helping each other out of jams. Today, we take a look at the song that has been released.

Celebrating 70 Years

In light of this, a song has been released. It is going by the name of ‘Teri Meri Sada Dosti’. This refers to a hope that lies between the two countries. The hope is that their partnership/friendship should go on for many years to come. China can even help Pakistan in the progression of technology. Back then, Pakistan used to launch its satellites from China. Now, we have the resources available to do it from our own country.

Here we have the song for you that was released in light of the long-standing friendship.

As we can see, the song talks about many things. It discusses the love, truth, and honesty that the two countries share. Unlike some rivalries in this world, they are not dishonest with each other. Instead, they are pretty straightforward. The song also hopes towards the fact that this friendship should be everlasting.

It also talks about how there is unity in strength. The two stand together through thick and thin and they hope they continue to do so. The goes on to discussing how friendship should not wilt despite any circumstances.

Happy Moments

We hope that the relationship between Pakistan and China continues to stand firm through the years. There should be no amount of adversity that can overcome this. Who knows, maybe we make more developments together as the decades progress.
