Hot chocolate bombs went viral on Tiktok last year. The short 15 second videos were so satisfying that people started bringing variations into them. So chocolate bombs didn’t just stay that; they became strawberry hot chocolate bombs or pumpkin hot chocolate bombs. So would you like to try and make your own hot chocolate bombs? They are not as hard as you would imagine them to be.

And as Karachi gets its proper winters, it wouldn’t hurt to surprise your young ones or your little siblings with a little bit of taste explosion now, would it? Plus, all you need to do is master these hot chocolate bombs. After that, you just might become the Masterchef you always wanted to be and create your own version of hot chocolate bomb.

A traditional hot chocolate bomb requires some hot cocoa mix, chocolate melts, and a silicone mold. Put the chocolate melts in the molds. Freeze it. And throw the bomb in the hot cocoa mix.

1. Pumpkin Hot Chocolate Bombs

The mix remains the same. You just need the right mold. Look for Jack o Lantern molds in a superstore. You can add orange and black sprinkles to animate it further.

2. Rudolph Hot Chocolate Bombs

Do you want to make a Rudolph shape hot chocolate bomb? Like I said already, the mix remains the same. But to make an animal, you need eyes, antlers, and a nose. Use edible stuff to make that, obviously. For this purpose, you can use chocolates or chocolate chips.

3. Glitter Hot Chocolate Bombs

Add a bucket load of edible glitter to the mix and freeze it. After freezing, you will have quite a pretty chocolate bomb. Don’t forget to make a video as you throw it in the hot cocoa mix.

4. White Chocolate Bombs

The inside of the bomb is your usual chocolate. But what you see, the shell of it, it is made of white. And it does look quite pretty. You can add crushed-up peppermint and Andes mints to the bomb. The resultant will be very sweet and refreshing.

These videos are very cathartic as the chocolate bomb explodes in the hot cocoa and the colorful explosion mixes in it. If it is so cathartic, how tasty must it be? So what do you say? Would you give it a go?

According To Research, Exercising In Cold Weather Burns More Fat

When the weather gets colder, we all want to skip the jog, the run or the home workout. However, recent studies have shown you might just be losing out on extra fat burns!

Colder Weather Can Burn More Fat

A new study has shown that exercising in colder temperatures can help burn more fat. At least it can do that in short, high-intensity workouts.

In a study, 11 “moderately fit, overweight” adult volunteers were chosen for observation of their lipid oxidation – the technical term for burning fat. The study showed that this increased by more than three times during exercise in a colder environment of 32 degrees Fahrenheit. As opposed to in “thermoneutral” environment of around 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius) which was lesser.

Point being, people lost more fat when exercising in colder weather!

How Did They Reach A Conclusion?

It started with taking the participants through a set of standard workouts for high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE), also known (HIIT), at various temperatures. 

Researchers from Laurentian University in Canada remark, “This is the first known study to investigate the effects of cold ambient temperatures on acute metabolism. Especially during high-intensity interval exercise, as well as postprandial metabolism the next day.”

The researchers basically observed that HIIT workouts in a cold environment change metabolism. It is done acutely as opposed to doing the workouts in thermoneutral temperatures. When our bodies get active, they become more able to process nutrients and regular lipid or fat levels in the blood.

What Was Found?

Due to the limited number of volunteers, no sweeping statements can be made. However, the researchers suggest it is an interesting point, to begin with. It was never thought before that the temperature could have any effect on the burn of fat during high-intensity workouts.

Previous studies have although shown that HIIE is very effective at burning off fat. Moreover, a link is established between body metabolism after exercise and how hot or cold the environment is. This new study, however, combines those two fields of research to look for further correlations and suggestions.

TikTok Couple Arrested For Posing As Rawalpindi Police

Image Source: Twitter

TikTokers have been all the rage ever since the app became a worldwide success. It has produced many celebrities and for those celebrities to maintain the status quo, they have to come up with regular content. And coming up with content is hard. So they have to be on their toes constantly. This TikTok couple was also going through that, and for lack of content or not, they ended up doing a video based on police.

Tiktok Couple get arrested

The Tiktok couple dressed up in Rawalpindi police uniforms. And they made Tiktok videos. Rawalpindi police did not take kindly to the impersonation and made the arrest on Sundays. They presented themselves as officers of Adiala Jail. The pictures and videos were uploaded on TikTok. The police themselves registered the case. As evidence, they confiscated the uniforms, the laptops, and phones, basically anything that was remotely linked to that particular video.

The Rawalpindi police

Rai Mazhar Iqbal, SP Rawalpindi, said that SHO city and DSP City led the team to make the arrest. They said that the suspects would be fined and punished.

It reminds one of another Tiktok star who was arrested for reckless driving. The star was making a video for his account that had more than one million followers. The matter was brought to authorities’ attention, and Punjab Highway Patrol Police made the arrest. The star, Daniyal Haider, was speeding near Choa Saidan Shah.

In another instance, a Tiktoker was arrested for torturing his brother and pushing him into the canal, just for the sake of getting more views. One should mention that the brother being tortured was mentally challenged. These instances should be enough to convey that to gain more views; people let go of all the bars.

So when a Tiktoker couple makes a video for an evident crime (impersonating the police), it’s not really unthinkable of an act. They were arrested from the Ganj Mandi area.

6 Common Mistakes You’re Making While Cooking A Steak

The perfect steak laid out
Image Source: She knows

There’s nothing like a juicy beefsteak for celebratory events or a flavourful chicken fillet for those who like to play it safe. But, as surprising as they may be, they’re quite tricky to get perfect. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or a pro; all of us can make mistakes in the kitchen; however, if you want to find out how to nail the perfect steak every time, keep reading!

1. You’re Afraid of Seasoning It

Season the steak properly

Your steaks need to be drenched and drown in a potent concoction of spices and herbs to deliver a punch. There’s no such thing as too much seasoning when it comes to making a good steak, so don’t hold back.

2. It Isn’t At Room Temperature

Before you cook your steak, you have to make sure that your choice of meat is allowed to rest. Make sure to keep it out for at least 30 minutes before you cook it. A cold steak will reduce the temperature of the pan, and your steak will become soggy.

3. Let It Rest After Cooking

Wrap your steak in a foil cover
Image Source: Cafe delites

A freshly cooked steak is too tempting to resist, we hear you, but your efforts can go to waste. After they’re done cooking, like other foods, they cook further while they’re cooling. If you cut into it right after, the moisture inside the steak can spill out. As a result, your steak will be drier and less juicy.

Cover it in foil for 10-15 minutes after cooking and then eat your heart out.

4. You Don’t Pre-heat Your Pan

The secret to achieving the perfect crust is on the steak lies in the pan too. You need to heat your non-stick frying pan for at least 10-15 minutes before you add your oil and steak. One way to check it is by hovering your hand above the pot and see if you feel the heat.

5. You’re Not Flipping It Enough

A common misconception is that steaks should be slipped only once to get the grill marks looking perfect. However, that can ruin your meat once you take it off the pan. Flipping it multiple times not only makes it cook faster but makes it juicy from the inside. A well-cooked steak is a goal here; aesthetics can take a back-seat.

6. You’re Not Using The Right Oil

Image Source: Pinterest

Olive oil is not the best option for steaks at all. They require a high smoke point oil such as canola, grapeseed, sunflower, or vegetable. Smoke point refers to the temperature at which the oil burns and olive oil has a low smoke point.

As a consequence, the oil can start burning at the temperature required to cook a steak and give a smokey flavor.

Which of these mistakes were you making? Let us know in the comments below!

This Urdu Translation On Nutella Bottle Has Got Everyone Laughing

In recent news, Pakistan announces that all imported food brands should translate what is written on their product. In accordance with the new policy, most brands have done it and it’s not a wrong move really. I mean, a product available in the country, if not accessible, should be readable to the masses right?

So for instance, if you look at the social media accounts of Burger King France, you will find them conversing mostly in French. That way they become accessible to their specific audience. Ferrero, I would say became accessible by following the policy and adding Urdu on the Nutella bottle.

But the problem with using the language of the target market is when you don’t use it the right way. Or better yet, you use the Google Translate version of it. By now, I believe everyone should know how flawed the translations of Google are. In fact, if I recall it correctly, we used to use Google Translate for comedy pieces.

Or it could be that Google Translate is pretty efficient when it comes to other languages. Actually, I think we should do a post on the languages, this service is till ignorant off. But that is a story of another day. For now, the story is about Urdu. And we know for sure that Google doesn’t know it.

Now, let’s stop putting the light on Google because we are not entirely sure if Ferrero did it or not. But it sure seemed like it due to the level of translation used. Have a look for yourself.

Image Source: Facebook

So the caption on the Nutella bottle read in English, ‘Hazelnut spread with Cocoa’. And the translation goes somewhat like this, ‘Hazelnut Cocoa k sath phela hua.’ Literally, 50% of the entire statement is in English, written in Urdu script. And ending the sentence on the verb just sounds unprofessional.

But that makes one think, do we, as Pakistanis, also know the right translation?

I don’t think so. At least, I for one, do not.

In fact, I asked some other people as well and it made people go into a monologue where they tried getting to the right word for hazelnut. Some thought it was akhrot which is walnut in reality. While others took some other dry fruit names. But no one yet has been able to tell me what hazelnut is called in Urdu.

Yet, most Pakistanis are laughing at this:

Well, let’s just hope that Google updates the Urdu word reservoir so brands have a better time with copywriting.

Government Of KP To Restore A Vandalized Hindu Temple

The world is home to many different kinds of faiths. In times of difficulty, religion can be a good place to turn to. Of course, it is encouraged to turn towards it in good times too. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion of their own. Similarly, they are allowed to follow their own faith.

Islam, for example, strongly condemns the concept of forcing people to convert. The conversion should always be a choice that the person makes, never something made for him. Christianity teaches similar principles and Buddhism talks about meditation. The last one has mediation at its very core, where one aims to achieve a sense of enlightenment, in order to reach Nirvana. Similarly, Hinduism has its own set of principles and followers. In recent news, the government of KP has instructed to reconstruct a Hindu temple!

Respecting All Religions:

Islam teaches Muslims that all faiths are to be respected. Islam encourages preaching, but it condemns forceful conversions. Religion even encourages you to explore other faiths and study what they do. It is not wrong to observe and note how Christians celebrate Christmas or how Jews celebrate Hanukkah.

A week ago, a Hindu temple in KP was the subject of vandalism. It was destroyed and burned by a group. In light of that, the KP government has decided to take a significant step. It could mean wonders for everyone!

A Temple Restoration:

In an official statement that was issued on Friday, the chief minister of the province has decided to restore the destroyed Temple. The temple is the Samadhi of Shri Param Hans Di Maharaj. The temple was vandalized at the hands of a Mob, last Wednesday. This mob consisted of Youngsters, Children, and elders all.

The governor also stated that the Hindu Temple attack is condemnable, and people have been arrested for their work. This is not an act that must be treated lightly and deserves light. She’s on it. The CM also stated that his government would assure the protection of all minority holy places. MNA Dr. Ramesh has also expressed his appreciation and satisfaction at this decision.

Unity And Peace For All:

This act ensures a sense of peace and negotiation between people of two faiths. It shows that, despite differences, the situation does not have to escalate. It can always be a peaceful option to make up for the damage done by a bad batch.

Neither is it good, nor is it beneficial to treat this act with another violent act. If a temple has been destroyed for unlawful reasons, there must be consequences for those involved. We hope this development gives people a better sense of security to practice their faith openly. It does not do well to keep fighting over religious or sectarian differences. After all, unity and peace are a mission handed to anyone living on this earth.

Young Boy Shot Dead By Islamabad Police For Not Stopping His Vehicle

21 year old Usama shot

Every day, there are brutal acts of violence taking place. One of the most know incidents of the previous year was the one involving George Floyd. In the footage that was shown, as well as the pictures, the brutality was clear. He did not even resist or was being considered at fault. Yet, they showed no sense of guilt or remorse as he was slowly and painfully, taken from us.

Violence just keeps escalating every year. Even if a place has a lower crime rate than others, it’s not something that is ever eradicated. Even superheroes, in their fictional worlds, are fighting a never-ending battle. Their enemies exist because they don’t like the way the hero operates. Pakistan has seen far more than its share of violence in the previous year. As of today, yet another incident has come to light. It seems a young boy, by the name of Usama, has been shot.

Brutal Acts Of Violence:

People are gunned down in acts of violence every day. Despite their being authorities present, criminals seem to escape the clutches of the law. At times, it can be the law that has extended itself to acts of criminality. In such times, we pray and wish such incidents should not be taking place. Shahzaib Khan’s incident is one that rocked the nation to the core.

It displayed and enveloped everything that has gone wrong with this world. People are supposed to look for non-violent ways to negotiate and end their issues. It seems that, despite everything, they revert to their primal war instincts. A similar act of violence shook the city of Islamabad. It involved the shooting of a young boy!

A Horrifying Incident:

Usama Nadeem Satti is the name of the individual who was the victim of violence. He was driving his vehicle when the anti-terrorist squad signaled him to stop the car. According to sources, he kept on going, and they opened fire. They fired 21, 17 of which hit Usama. He passed away on the spot. What kind of police regulation allows the shooting of civilians? Is this not a prime example of the kind of injustice that is faced every day?

Yes, the civilian did not comply and stop, but does that give the authorities the permission to shoot point-blank? Does that give them the approval of gunning down the person in cold blood? Regulations state the act of giving chase, even firing a warning shot. If, even then, the person is not complying, then the vehicle’s tyres should be shot at.

Injustice Walks Unchained:

Who will give Usama Nadeem Satti the justice he deserves? Is this another case of police brutality? Twitter, as you can see, has had a lot to offer on this case. It’s a sad state of affairs to go into the new year with such a horrible incident to hear about.

We hope the family members of the victim are granted patience and are able to navigate through this difficult time. He was twenty-one years old, that is barely two decades of his life. One moment, just taken away!

Image Source: Twitter

Since the past few days, there have been videos and pictures being posted on the internet claiming that the a Saudi Businesswomen, Sahoo Bint Abdullah married her Pakistani driver who apparently had a humble and simple background.

Image Source: Twitter

The news came as a surprise for many Pakistanis who poked fun at the driver’s luck, many hailing the news similar to a lottery for the Pakistani driver who is now set for life as his wife has an estimated wealth of $8 Billion and multiple properties and businesses all around the world as per the posts that are currently viral on social media.

There are multiple pictures and videos in which the happy couple can be seen been in their wedding outfits being affectionate to each other.

Twitter Reacts To The News Of Pakistani Driver Getting Married To A Saudi Businesswoman

As expected, Pakistani Twitter went into a frenzy and reacted to this news. Pakistanis that generally go to the Middle Eastern countries on work permits often face problems and have to do immense hard work to make ends meet.

However, many considered this news as a lottery for the alleged Pakistani driver appearing on the videos and pictures floating on the internet.

How True Is This News?

As much as we would like this news to be accurate, unfortunately, none of the well-reputed sources have verified this story. There are no whereabouts about a Saudi Billionaire Businesswoman Sahoo Bint Abdullah on the internet.

Even though the news with no sources is spreading on the internet like wild-fire, there is no single source that could confirm this news other than a few pictures with the same caption being reposted by multiple people all across the Pakistani social media.

Saudi Arabia is home for many Pakistanis who go to the country to gain a livelihood for their families while living in challenging circumstances but working hard so the lives of their family could turn around.

There have been several success stories about Pakistanis in Saudi Arabia in the past that were true though

Last year, there was news about a Pakistani carpenter who went to Saudi Arabia approximately four years back at the age of 24 to work as a carpenter but soon got offers for modeling. He now works as a fashion model full-time in the country, which had been his dream.

Waqas’s story proves that one does not need marriage to a billionaire to bail out of his or her circumstances, but hard work, consistency, and being fair in your dealings will assist you in reaching your goals one day.

Teenage entrepreneur Abdullah Mehmood who is trapping foreign investment

An entrepreneur is a person who takes financial risks and starts different businesses in hope of profit. But not every entrepreneur is like that, some take entrepreneurship as a purpose, a purpose to help others achieve success in their life.

Abdullah Mehmood is one of them, he’s known as the youngest entrepreneur of Pakistan. The purpose of his life is to serve his nation, which is a country of extreme talent and certainty. Convince international companies to invest in Pakistan. Everyone loves their country but the question is what makes you say that? Makes u prove that? Some say that if you want to serve your country you should join the army. But! That’s not true, u can prove your love for your country by doing something which will benefit not only the country but also the people of your country. This 18 years old teen is not just a business-minded person but also a patriot. He’s doing something that nobody has done before at his age.

Abdullah is just 18 years old, and his purpose in life is to convince international industries/agencies and markets to invest in Pakistan.

How successful he is?

Abdullah says that he’s not successful and he will never be until he sees his country becoming successful. Success doesn’t come easy and there’s no age to be successful, all u have to do is work hard. Now, he has his own media agency, running multiple YouTube channels, and becoming an Instagram model. His dream to be somebody in this world started when he was just 14 years old. At that time he was already managing multiple Facebook pages and groups, all having at least a million followers. Many public and business personalities used to contact him for his services. Abdullah helped every one of them reach over a million followers, at once. As time passed he turned his interest into a passion.

Abdullah has been helping people throughout his time but who one knew before. He contacted many media agencies but no one took him seriously. This pained him immensely, that was the time when he realized that there is no care for talent in this country. This gave him a purpose in life to create a media agency basically for the people who have a great deal of potential but nobody cares about them. Now Abdullah is the founder of The Rex media group.

Abdullah wants to see his country grow, he wants to make his country economically so strong that Pakistan and it’s services are to be known globally. He believes that if u want to serve the nation u have to follow the people who once served the nation…

Quaid Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah once said for his youth: “With faith, discipline and selfless devotion to duty, there’s nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve and if you will work in cooperation, forgetting the past, burying the hatchet, you are bound to succeed”

Abdullah took that seriously.

What’s Rex Media group?

The Rex Media group is an agency that helps common organizations to become popular brands. It’s an advertising agency that provides marketing services for both local and international markets with the help of young and talented freelancers of Pakistan. It’s a great platform for the people who truly deserve attention.

During the pandemic, many countries were facing economic pressures and industries were on the brink of crisis. Abdullah sees it as an opportunity because the condition covid 19 was not as extreme in Pakistan as extreme in other countries. Abdullah uses his resources to contact, collaborate, and convince them to invest in Pakistan.

Recently, Abdullah collaborated with Arash Barman who is the CEO of a software house known as BOOS. He convinced him to invest in Pakistan. In a short period, many Pakistanis start working with that company and start earning more than 40k a month. Because of his quality services, 3 US-based advertising companies and two software houses contacted him to attain his services and invest in Pakistan.

A public figure

Abdullah Mehmood is a YouTuber and an Instagram model. His extraordinary success at such a young age has made him famous all over Pakistan. He runs multiple cash cow channels on Youtube which have over a million subscribers in total. Through his channels, people are learning different and effective ways to earn money and it’s going on pretty well. Abdullah started youtube as a blogger when he was just 15 years old he used to vlogs on his channel. He didn’t gain much attention then, but now people know him well through his other cash cow channels. He’s also known for his modeling and has a chunk of followers on Instagram. Not very long ago, Abdullah was asked in a private interview to share his thoughts about his future. Abdullah replied: “Future is in God’s hand but what we can do is to hope and work hard towards our goal. Don’t wait for an opportunity, create one. Don’t look backward, look forward. Have a vision and believe in yourself, don’t look for motivation, be an inspiration. God helps those who help themselves…”

Abdullah is just 18 years old, and he’s currently studying and working with the students of the Agriculture department university-based in Faisalabad. They are planning and harvesting some crops which are not currently growing in Pakistan on a landmark of 30 acres which will help the local people in terms of cost and time.

Summary

Abdullah’s story told us that there’s nothing in life that you cannot achieve. No matter who you are and no matter where you are, there’s always a way that you can’t see. Doing something for yourself is good but doing something for your country is amazing. His story has not ended here, there are a lot more to come.

“Just wait for the sun to rise again and let the clouds fade away, there’s calm after storm to”
