Hania Aamir got personal and reached out to many this Mother’s Day and she has an important message to share!

Mother’s Day 2021

Mother’s Day 2021 was troubled as it is. Many people found themselves unable to be beside their mothers. Others found their wounds refreshed on this day as they remembered their mothers, no longer with them.

In our celebrations and joy, we often lose sight of others who suffer on the very same day. Hania Aamir invited attention to those who do not have a good relationship with their parents and hence, don’t feel best on Mother’s or Father’s Day.

Hania Aamir shares her story

The actor rarely opens up but when she does she makes sure she builds a community around herself. On this Mother’s Day, she shared an IGTV on Instagram in which she wishes everyone a Happy Mother’s Day in her usual energetic style.

After that, she shares something from her own life. Aamir shared that though her father is alive, well, and healthy, she is not on speaking terms with him. They have their “personal differences” because of which they do not stay connected. Her words perfectly capture the essence of a complicated relationship. She loves him dearly and can not imagine a world without him, but their differences are, also, too great. 

Reaching Out To Others Like Her

Hania Aamir basically wanted to reach out to others who feel the same as her. The feeling of not “feeling the best” on either of these days can be difficult and uncomfortable.

She even said that she understands they can feel “annoying”. The solution? Aamir suggests letting it pass. Acknowledge that not everyone is in the same boat as you and then, let the wave settle. This day, too, shall pass!

Fans Reach Out to Hania Aamir

Hania Aamir already has a vast fan following. However, each time a celebrity, who people look up to, gets real and shares their troubles, many can relate. More than relating, people feel understood; as if they have someone in their corner.

Such was the case following Hania Aamir’s IGTV video. Many fans shared their love and understanding in the comments section!

Here’s what they said:

This 19-Year-Old Boy Becomes The Youngest Pakistani to Climb Everest

Pakistanis and their love for mountains is a never-ending affair. A new feat has been achieved today and we couldn’t be prouder! A youngster has made a record as the youngest Pakistani.

The Youngest Pakistani on Mount Everest

A young man, Shehroze Kashif, has recently claimed the title of being the youngest Pakistani to summit Mount Everest. Kashif is only 19 years old which makes his victory an even greater achievement.

Kashif’s Journey

Shehroze Kashif’s Instagram has been keeping people up to date on his journey atop Mount Everest. Each mission of summiting a mountain consists of a proper routine whereby the mountaineer stops at several camps strategically. 

It is also reported that Kashif reached camp 3, the stop before the final summit, without oxygen! Only 1 day later the same account reported that Shehroze Kashif has summitted none other than the terrifying Mount Everest. His time of summit is noted as 5:02 AM Pakistani time which is equally fascinating and scary.

Imagine being at the peak of the highest mountain above sea level right when the sun is breaking out, we are sure there is no sight better than that. Kudos to Shehroze Kashif for following his dreams despite all odds!

Summit with Kashif

Kashif’s Instagram account is handled by the Karakoram club. They received texts and messages from Shehroze Kashif on his journey which they shared with his fans and the world at large. The most interesting thing we came across is the possibility to have trekked to the top with Kashif!

He shared the tracker pin which was shared on his Instagram through which people could summit along. Surely you’ll never find us on any Mount Everest camp but if in the new day and age this is how one can summit too, call us mountaineers!

Mountaineering in Pakistan

Recently the death of Ali Sadpara and his teammates made the entire nation grieve. They loved the mountains dearly and in the mountains did they find their final resting place. His untimely death while summiting the Nanga Parbat invites attention to many challenges faced by mountaineers in Pakistan.

Firstly, there is obviously an extreme shortage of funds. Ali Sadpara was reported to fund many trips by himself or go as a guide along to earn money. Moreover, we still lack the availability of proper equipment needed. Whether Shehroze Kashif had to reach C3 without O2 due to this reason is still unclear but it is a possibility nonetheless.

Here’s to Shehroze Kashif for fulfilling his dreams and taking Pakistan to the peak of the highest mountain.

6 Actors Who Could Have Replaced Ayeza Khan In Chupke Chupke

chupke chupke
Image source: youtube.com

Ever since the premiere of Chupke Chupke, there has been a massive uproar on social media. Some are commenting about the casts’ acting while others are noticing and praising the patriarchal issues being raised. At the same time, some netizens are giving their two cents making a comparison of Chupke Chupke and Suno Chanda. Regardless, our nations seem to be divided as every day, a new topic of discussion is raised related to the drama.

Chupke Chupke – Ramadan Special

Shortly after the drama aired on HUM TV, netizens started commenting on Ayeza Khan’s acting. While some supported the chulbuli college-going girl, others disregarded her for taking on a role like that while being a mother of two. Around the same time, the new that Sohai Ali Abro was the first choice for Meenu, also came around. Netizens mentioned how Abro could’ve filled the Meenu’s shoes better because she’d have ‘looked’ the part. This particular word, ‘looked’, led us to assemble an entire list of Pakistani actresses who would have looked like Meenu because while Ayeza is playing a superb Meenu, people can’t seem to align the character and actor together.

So, let’s have a look, shall we?

1.Sohai Ali Abro 

Best known for her comic roles in Jawani Phir Nae Ani and Wrong No., there is no doubt that Abro could’ve been the best fit for Meenu. Her cameos in the talk show “Ghabrana Mana Hai” hosted by the maestro Vasay Chaudhry range in various avatars, and every time, she manages to crack us up. Nevertheless, Sohai could be the best option for the perfect portrayal of a clumsy college-going girl.

2. Hina Altaf 

Hina Altaf also falls in the same acting spectrum as Abro. She is fun and knows how to play around with a character like Meenu. In addition, her outspoken and witty personality makes her another best option for the role of Meenu.

image source: https://www.fashionuniverse.net/

3. Minal Khan 

Minal is known for more mature and serious roles, but she takes on a witty girl who plays dumbs every once in a while but is smart. Her comic role in the drama Hum Sab Ajeeb Se Hain is the best portrayal of that. If given a chance, we believe Minal would’ve done justice to Ayeza’s role in Chupke Chupke.

Image source: https://www.secretcloset.pk/

4. Iqra Aziz 

The Suno Chanda lead could’ve been the perfect option for Meenu. The loud personality, grazing eyes which Iqra was well known for in Suno Chanda could’ve been quickly replaced by the clumsy innocent girl who wants to get rid of her studies. Therefore, we believe Iqra could’ve been a better fit for the role of Meenu.

5. Maya Ali 

Another best fit for the role of Meenu could’ve been Maya Ali. The chemistry of Maya and Osman Butt was well appreciated in yet another comedy serial, Aun Zaara, which soar them both to the heights of popularity. Maya and Osman would’ve made the perfect pair with Maya filling Meenu’s shoes with her bubbly personality.

Image source: https://www.samaa.tv/

6. Yumna Zaidi 

The comedy role of Yumna in Pyar k Sadkay got her a lot of appraisal from netizens. The chulbuli, next door girl who doesn’t care about a thing in life. The acting of Yumna as Mahajabeen was stellar, and she would’ve done justice to the role of Meenu.

Eid is around the corner, along with the heatwave. And that means sweating, melting, and oily makeup looks. But your face is not a mango swirl, right? So, it does not have to melt, neither should it look greasy. What you can do to prevent your makeup from melting and wiping off? First, you can use loose powders. Loose powders allow your makeup to lock into your skin and give you an oil-free look.

However, loose powders are not only used to prevent your skin from getting oily, but they also give your makeup a finished look—to create a smoother, more poreless, and textureless surface. Applying the powder in the correct technique is the key to an oil-free look. For example, using the powder to the forehead, nose, chin, and sides of the mouth can help mitigate any excess shine or oil breakthrough that can lead to a porous look.

If you are curious about which powders can be best for the task, keep reading because I am sharing a list of all the best loose powders to give you an air-brushed look.

1. Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder

A personal favorite, this powder will give you the right amount of glow without the greasy feeling. The translucent veil powder gives your face a blur airbrushed finish while minimizing the appearance of imperfections—a perfect product for daytime events and weddings.

2. Maybelline Fit Me

Maybelline fit me products are one of the best-selling drug store buys all around the world, and the formula of them speaks for itself. Best for combination skin types that are dehydrated yet get oily at the same time. This product will give your skin- your skin but a better look without the tackiness of oil and dryness.

3. Loreal Paris Infallible Loose Powders 

For a gorgeous glowy and highlighted finish, loreal infallible is the perfect option. This product will suck off all the extra oil leaving behind the right amount to give your skin a natural glow.

6. Fenty Beauty Instant Retouch 

Fenty beauty powder is light; it’s illuminating yet does its job perfectly. The finely milled formula and the variety of shades make it one of the best options among makeup artists.

The smartphone tech titans are often known to release news with a bang. It can be a surprise in the middle of winter or during summer. When they do drop the news, it can hit like a fresh moment. We have just come to know that Samsung intends to release some new smartphones soon.

If you are a follower of tech news, you must be aware of how Samsung operates. They may lie in wait for quite a while before they decide to resurface. When they finally do, they bring forth quite a lot of pieces of interesting news. Do you remember the time when Samsung released the Galaxy S21? Everyone wanted to be a part of the new generation of smartphones. Now, we have yet another piece of news from the tech titan. Let us dive into details.

Samsung new upcoming phones

New Samsung Smartphones

While it is true that the titan releases news quietly, they do step forward with a bang later on. Apparently, the company is in talks with local network carriers. Why would this be happening? Yes, it would happen so the company has coverage for new and upcoming phones. While the launch of the phones is currently scheduled for August, they may be pushed a bit forward.

The strategies that Samsung is applying on phone releases, are really helping them. After all, the company was the number one smartphone vendor in the first quarter of the year. Despite there being a chip shortage, the company was able to bounce back and rise again. For now, the phones we know of are Samsung S21 (Fan Edition), Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip.

Smartphones by Samsung

All of the abovementioned phones have been hyped up for quite a while now. If you remember, we once posted an article about the concept phones of Samsung. This also included a flip and foldable one and it seems that dream is coming true. The technological era is shifting for the better and a lot is being expected from Samsung. Since they have established themselves so high, they must now fill in expectations from everyone.

Additionally, it has come to our attention that Samsung intends to keep producing phones despite the shortage. This means that they will either come up with an alternate resource or a way to compromise on some of the silicon. The world has been sent into quite a frenzy, with the pandemic already raging through the countries.

Grasping The Future

We hope that Samsung is able to uphold its dedication and continues to satisfy the audience. The year has merely begun and a lot remains to be seen as we head further into the summer months. Let us take a moment to breathe.

Peek Freans Smile Donuts Stay True To Their Name With Latest Campaign

Gotta Smile… a simple two-word phrase; yet it serves as the perfect reminder for us all to smile more often, especially when times get rough. The reason why this particular phrase is gaining traction these days is all thanks to a wonderfully innovative advertising campaign initiated by one of the most renowned brands of our time, EBM.

For over a decade, EBM has provided the country with a diverse portfolio of healthy and delicious biscuits and cakes and is acclaimed nationally as an industry leader. After taking the market by storm with their Effie award-winning treat, ‘Cake Up, EBM has now once again made a massive impact with the launch of their latest product, Peek Freans Smile Donut Cakes.

The new Smile Donuts, as the name suggests, promotes the concept of uplifting each other and spreading smiles and joy all around. In a fleeting sense, one might brush away this phrase quite easily. However, if we take out some time out of our busy schedules and really ponder over this, how many times, in fact, do you smile in a day? This is precisely why Peek Freans came up with the idea to remind us all to smile more often.

The idea was brought to life with the help of popular celebrities, influencers, YouTubers and TikTok stars, all of whom posted pictures of themselves as they smiled wide and enjoyed their new Smile Donut cakes.

The campaign took off with leading actors, musicians and artistes such as Ramsha Khan, Saheefa Jabbar, Shahveer Jafry, Romaisa Khan, Areeka Haq and Aima Baig posting pictures as they posed adorably with their Smile Donuts and expressed their love for the treat while also talking about what really made them smile.

Later on, many popular Instagram and TikTok sensations, influencers, YouTubers and actors were sent giveaway baskets full of Smile Donuts along with a QR code which led to an Instagram post that created a lot of buzz all over social media. After much suspense, the mystery of the Instagram post was finally revealed; viewers got to see the most enthralling Instagram filter where a cute donut popped up once you smiled, with the hashtag #GottaSmile underneath. Almost all the stars who were a part of the initiative went on to share cute snaps of themselves enjoying the filter and celebrating World Happiness Day.

A number of influencers, TikTok stars, YouTubers were also seen posting GIFs, the first half of which showed them looking sad and bored with the second half of the GIF showing them indulge in the deliciousness and sheer joy brought on by the Smile Donut cakes.

With this new campaign, EBM reinforced its position as a thoughtful brand that is always looking for creative and innovative ways to help promote positivity across Pakistan. The Smile Donut Cakes is just such an initiative as it serves as the perfect reminder to break away from the monotony of life and just smile.

AUDI Pakistan Signs MoU With BankIslami To Assemble Cars in Sindh

Audi Pakistan

Germany’s premium and world’s second largest car makers, Audi has stepped into the Pakistani Automobile Industry by starting a feasibility study for assembling Audi cars in Pakistan.

The German auto giant is partnering with BankIslami Pakistan through the importer Premier Systems in order to launch the brand in the Pakistani market.

BankIslami Pakistan and premier Systems (Pvt) Ltd has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Audi’s general importer in Pakistan (Audi Pakistan).

In reference to the MoU, BankIslami will be providing a customized finance package to all the Audi cusotmer throughout the country through Islami Auto Ijarah, its flagship product.

A memorandum of understanding (MoU) has been signed by AUDI AG; the Sindh Board of Investment and Mr. Martin Birkner of AUDI AG signed this MoU in the presence of Mr. Rainer Schmiedchen, Consul-General of Germany in Karachi and Mr. Arshad Raza of Premier Systems.

Audi

The much-delayed New Auto Policy 2015 has opened doors for new car manufacturers, establishing their assembly units in Pakistan; the most liked Audi is about to mark an entry in the country.

Audi Launches New One-Off Luxury Car

It is indeed a very encouraging development for not only automobile consumers but also for people of this industry. When the New Auto policy was about to be announced, it was tipped off that European manufacturers are keen to open their assembly and sales units here; that idea now seems to be turning into reality.

According to the signed MoU, Audi will study economic, legal and the logistic feasibility for establishing an assembly unit in Sindh. The company will also look into federal trade policies; Premier Systems will be its authorized importer in Pakistan.

At the moment, Pak auto industry is captured by Japanese automobile makers and now with the addition of high-quality brands like Audi, it will become much more competitive especially for local auto makers.

The government of Pakistan always wanted to bring in foreign, especially European car manufacturers in the country and now we can expect that with increased competition, local cars’ prices are likely to go down a notch.

The Company’s Covid-19 relief efforts have been ongoing in Pakistan – from the timely distribution of life-saving ventilators to assisting the Government in disease-prevention by distributing protective equipment to front line health workers.

Given the deadly rise of the third wave The Coca-Cola Foundation is working on broadening the scope of on-ground relief efforts. Furthermore, this Ramadan, Coca-Cola also partnered with Rizq, leading non-profit organization for food philanthropy in Pakistan, to donate over 600,000 meals across 13 cities over the duration of the Holy month. Over 135 million people have been impacted in Pakistan during Covid-19 due to hunger, and with this campaign “Ao Mil Kar Bhook Mitayain’, the aim remains to fight hunger.

This 135-birthday-year is truly unique, since the Company is creating a fully networked organization with improved digital channels in its operations and communications – constantly gauging market research to stay agile and keep contributing to the economy in these unprecedented times. About 10,000 employment opportunities are created across the Company’s chain.

Highlighting the Company’s history in Pakistan, Fahad Ashraf, VP and General Manager for Pakistan & Afghanistan region at The Coca-Cola Export Corporation said, “We are almost as old as Pakistan, and one of the few multinationals to adopt Pakistan as a home very early on. Our success is linked to the success of the nation, and we could not celebrate this birthday year without prioritizing the people of Pakistan in these uncertain times when the food emergency is just as critical as the health emergency.”

Stop the Spread’ is part of Coca-Cola’s sustainability initiatives umbrella that prioritizes issues related to women empowerment, access to safe drinking water and creating a World Without Waste. Resulting from this work in Pakistan, more than one billion rupees is spent on these social development programs, 3.2 billion liters of water is replenished, over 10,000 women are empowered through micro finance and vocational trainings, and over 1 million households are uplifted among the most underserved communities of Pakistan.

When are they releasing?

So far, it has been suggested that the first pair of shoes will be released in June. Right on time for the summer holidays right? The June release is also said to be a promotional version of Adidas’s new Forum Tech Boost style. It’s the best of both worlds.

Following that, in October, two Xbox-themed pairs of Adidas’s Forum Mid will drop. You should also expect another model of the Forum Tech Boost in November! While this may be it for the drops in 2021, the leaked document suggests that more could come in 2022.

Corporate Competition or Creative Endeavours?

Though this news is a good one for many, we’re not sure what has led to it being created. The fact that this “leaked” news comes right after headlines of PlayStation launching themed shoes with LA Clippers Paul George. These are set to launch in May and expected to retail for $210.

Expect the typical PlayStation colours of blue and white and many more of their “aesthetic touches” as gaming pros say. This encourages us to think about whether these “leaked documents” by Adidas are even leaked. Mayhaps they were leaked on purpose to give their competitor an edge!

Imran Abbas Criticized For Kissing His Mother’s Feet

There is truly nothing that escapes the harsh critique of Netizens when it comes to celebrities. Imran Abbas’ emotional and appealing Mothers Day tribute has gone sour for him.

International Mother’s Day

Annually, Mother’s Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of May. It is the day prior to which a plethora of deals, discounts, and gift ideas are floating on the internet. Many children are scampering to find a gift to spoil their mother and so on.

A post shared by @iris.berries

Imran Abbas celebrated it differently. Though we don’t know whether he gifted something to his mother or not, he chose to gift himself Jannah by literally kissing his mother’s feet. 

Imran Abbas Gets Real

It is a well-respected belief in Islam that “Jannat is beneath the feet of a mother”. However, one should be cautious to literally interpret it. The idea is that something so unbelievably beautiful and sacred is right below our mother’s feet. It is to show the stature of a mother and emphasise how they are greater than Jannat. Please your mother and you attain Jannat.

However, Imran Abbas interpreted it literally and kissed his mother’s feet on Mother’s day. While there is nothing wrong with the act itself, the problem is with the broadcasting and association.

What’s The Problem?

When Imran Abbas kisses his mother’s feet and associates it with the aforementioned belief, he encourages a literal interpretation. That is problematic also because Muslims are also not allowed to prostrate before anyone else. Only Allah. 

Moreover, netizens are confused and irritated at why he must broadcast it. He can totally express his love for his mother but doing something so personal only for social media is questionable.

Imagine he got done and performed this act only while posing for the perfect photo also… doesn’t it take away the sincerity of the act?

Hear from The Netizens

There’re more where that came from!

Reservations Aside…

The netizens reservations aside, one thing is for sure: the comments could do better. We should not forget this is the month of Ramadan, the last few nights that are abound with blessings. Spreading negativity by bashing someone for a misguided act goes against the spirit of Ramadan.

Sure Imran Abbas actions may have consequences however, everything can be worded better. He could be given the knowledge that ‘this post can suggest something wrong’ which he might take into account. Here’s to hoping everyone had a great Mother’s Day with their families.

4 Dangerous VPN Apps That Can Steal Your Phone’s Data

Apps of VPN as dangerous
Image Source: sea.pcmag.com

If we ever wish to alter our location, virtually, we use a VPN. These were extremely useful back when YouTube was blocked in Pakistan and they are still quite useful. However, there are some dangerous VPN apps that could steal your data!

In this world of growing technology, privacy is a major concern. With such progression, we don’t have a way to determine how far a network can be breached. One day, it could be a calm day and the next, absolutely chaotic. It doesn’t matter which site you’re browsing because all of them have a central database.

Even the dark net comprises of domains that cannot show up on Google. Would it come as a shock if we informed you that Google is just 10% of the internet? I bet it can begin to feel a bit strange that VPN apps may be collecting your data, without consent.

Dangerous VPN Apps

1. Yoga VPN:

Now this is an application which became famous quite a while back. It isn’t that old but it has some concerns on it. The application asks for various permissions which include your phone number as well as which network you’re on. It doesn’t seem that all this is necessary to attain since a lot of VPN apps do well without. There is a lot of shady work going on here, it seems.

2. Hola Free VPN:

Dangerous and VPN apps
Image Source: addons.mozilla.org

It lies up there in the same domain as Yoga. It also asks the user for information that has no use being asked for. One can ask for a certain amount of storage space or real location but not this. The CEO took quite a lot of criticism and even tried to get people to change their opinion. However, today, it seems that Hola is just another data exploitation front. Take a step back if you are ever faced with this app. It’s name may be welcoming but its content and policies radiate the opposite!

3. oVPNSpider:

While this VPN may not be as blatant as the other two, it has its own risks. A risk assessment revealed DNS leaks within the application. This is a security flaw which exposes your browser traffic to your ISP. What is the use of the VPN if this happens? The ISP will block the site again! It has also been noted that oVPNSpider tested positive for Malware and Adware. As cool as the name of the VPN may sound, it is better to avoid it!

4. proXPN VPN:

ProXPN and Dangerous VPN

While this VPN app offers unlimited data transfer and connection time, it has has its dangerous underbelly. This VPN is based out of US. It can be said that any VPN out of US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, should be avoided. They openly use user data to maintain their own systems and gain inside information, allegedly.

These VPN Apps are definitely trying to attain your information in one way or another. If you ever come across any of these names, it is better to steer clear of them.

Dr. Sethna’s Fellow Doctors Remembers Him

“Dr. Sethna was a great mentor to countless gynecologists. He believed in women’s empowerment and staunchly supported the role of midwives and the cause to provide the best care to pregnant women,” recalled Dr. Sherhshah Syed, former president of the Society of Obstetrician and Gynaecologists Pakistan (SOGP).

“Dr. Sethna was behind the LDH’s modernization. He was able to convince the late Ardeshir Cowasjee to support him in building a midwifery school at the hospital,” Dr. Syed said, adding that he was also an ardent art lover and reader.

A Tweet From Murtaza Wahab

Sindh CM’s adviser Murtaza Wahab calls it terrible news in a tweet posted on Sunday, adding that Dr. Setna was his family doctor. “Visited his clinic many times & was always surprised to see people from all strata of society come to him,” he said. “A very kind & humane professional who will always be remembered.”

This Latest Eid Collection Campaign Is Receiving Hilarious Reactions

Maria B's Latest Ready To Wear Eid Campaign Is Receiving Hilarious Reactions
Image source: http://www.mayadaily.com/

The fashion industry is constantly called out for their weird and horrendous cases of photoshop. Whitewashing, airbrushed skin, or invisible body parts. These are some of the prevalent mistakes of photoshop going wrong. A similar situation seems to be happening with the latest campaign of Maria B. Maria B’s Ready to wear eid collection, starred Rubina Ashraf and Mina Ashraf.

Maria B’s Latest Campaign

Both of them are wearing matching Maria B outfits in different colors. Minna wears a teal green look while Rubina Ashraf adorns a bright red outfit. However, Rubina’s outfit or picture seems to be wrong because we can’t see her legs.

The Hilarious Responses 

The picture is getting some hilarious responses from the netizens. People are concerned about why they are unable to see Rubina’s legs and what made them disappear. Not to mention some of them made us crack up 😀

 

Some mentioned that she looks like floating in the air, while others disregard the dress for making the legs disappear.

Some of them also mentioned that they need to exchange their chokers because they are not color-coordinated with the dresses. And we must say people keep their eyes close on the media celebrities.

Photoshop Fail or An Illusion? 

This picture seems to raise a question. We keep wondering if her legs are actually photoshopped or if it’s just an illusion because her legs are hiding behind her dupatta. But whatever the case is, the internet found a meme-worthy scenario from the designer’s campaign.

However, we hope to get a response from Maria B’s management team because we are curious to know the answer to the situation. So what is your take on the case? Photoshop fail or just an illusion? Let us know in the comments below.

We humans have been blessed with quite a lot of senses. We use sight to observe the world around us. It can never be enough to gaze upon the beauty of this world and the universe around us. We can write book after book over the scenic beauty and still not do justice to it. However, what we can do is appreciate it whenever we see it.

Similarly, the sense of smell tells us how the aroma of something is. We can often determine the state of something solely based on smell. Just like that, we have a sense of hearing. It allows us to capture all that is said in this world. From a bird chirping to a rocket launching, our ear absorbs it all. In light of this sense, we shall present you with a list. The list states Wireless buds for under Rs.5000/-

5 Mysterious Discoveries Of The Cursed Year 2020

Image Source: Phys.org

If the pandemic’s arrival was not enough of a signal for you that the year 2020 was cursed, well, let me tell you that there were many more signs that appeared aside from that. And if you still refuse to believe it, then I guess you have more trust in the year than our Pakistani drama heroes have in their significant others. Right now, we are going to be listing down some of the mysterious discoveries that justified the label of ‘the cursed year 2020’.

1. Blackhole

A black hole was discovered. It was apparently the most massive and strangest blackholes spotted near the earth. And black holes, as we have been introduced, are phenomena that consume any and everything in their paths—scared yet? Did I mention it was near the earth?

2. UFO Footage

We sane minds always knew that aliens exist. But some did not want to. Well, bad news for them, official footage of UFO sighting has been released. And guess what that means? It means they are already here. Although, I wholeheartedly am against all these notions that aliens are evil. If any of you are reading this, you can totally contact me for help.

3. Monolith

A monolith was discovered in Utah. And ever since then, people have been finding these all over the world. The geometry of those figures is strange.

4. The Great Conjunction

A phenomenon that last happened 800 years ago happened just a few days ago. Is God giving us hints?

5. First dinosaur DNA

Did you see Jurassic Park? Do you find the idea of dinosaurs fascinating? Or does it terrify you, like it should a normal person? Well, as you will know from Jurassic Park that it all happens when someone with money and someone with scientific expertise when they get together, disasters like Jurassic park happen. And it all started with getting their hands on the DNA of a dinosaur. We are finally getting our hands on the DNA of a dinosaur. Merry Christmas!

Bermuda Triangle, I tell you, is a thing of the past. With these mysteries appearing the entire year, astrologers must have had a field day trying to read the signs. I just hope that these are all of it and that they are not the forwarning for more curses in the upcoming year 2021.

This Viral 60-Sec Facemask Hack Makes Your Mask Fit Better!

facemask hack step 1
PC: Dr Olivia

Facemasks can be really annoying, especially when you’re not used to wearing them. They fog your glasses, make it difficult to breathe, and you just want to take them off!

COVID-19 is wildly contagious, and with flu season around the corner, you need to make sure you have plenty of masks and sanitizers to get by.

If you want the best protection, then we advise you to keep the masks on, no matter how uncomfortable you may feel. And if it’s just too much for you, we have a simple solution!

Today, we will share a viral 60-seconds facemask hack with you that will help your mask fit better. The hack will help protect you from the novel coronavirus!

It reduces the gaps on the sides or bottom, as the virus can pass through the openings. If you don’t have an N95 mask but a simple 3-ply mask, that’s fine too.

How Facemasks Alter Our Interactions with Others

Viral 60-Seconds Facemask Hack

What’s the trick you ask?

Step 1 – Do A Hotdog Fold

facemask hack step 1
PC: Dr Olivia

The first step is to make both ends of the mask meet each other, which is commonly known as the hotdog fold.

Step 2- Knot The Earloops

Once your mask is folded in half, take one earloop at a time and make a knot. You need to keep the knot simple, not too complicated. Once you are done with one-side, repeat the same knot on the other side.

Step 3- Tuck In The Extra Fabric

The last step is to simply tuck in the extra mask which is now pointing outwards because of the knot. This will close the massive space that was exposing your face.

Coronavirus Outbreak: Alternatives For Surgical Masks To Protect Yourself

Watch Dr. Olivia’s complete 6-seconds facemask hack below:

 

Importance Of Facemasks

The Centre for Disease Control (CDC) as well as the World Health Organization have been encouraging citizens to wear masks. CDC recommends that people wear masks in public settings and when around people who don’t live in the same household as you.

However, it is also recommended that masks should NOT be worn by children under 2 years or anyone who has trouble breathing, is unconscious, incapacitated, or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance.

This is only in the case when the child or individuals are at home or in care and are avoiding outside contact. Without the mask to protect them, they are automatically more vulnerable to the Coronavirus.

We hope this viral facemask hack helps you!
