The Best Planned Localities of Pakistan: Model Town Lahore
2008-09-03 04:44:00
Owias Mughal Today we are going to feature Model Town , Lahore as one of the best planned localities of Pakistan . In the past we?ve featured North Nazimabad, Karachi and Eight bazaars of Faisalabad in the same series.Model Town is designed in the shape of a square with major roads dividing it into blocks vertically, horizontally and diagonally. The area of Model Town is 5.9 square kilometers (or 1463 acres). The center of the square shape is a circular park. I don?t know the exact dimension but somewhere I?ve read the circumference of this circular park is more than 2km. Besides the obvious symmetry of design, what else has always attracted me to Model Town?s planning is its generous allotment for green areas and parks. Almost 19% of model town?s area is alloted to parks. Another 4% area is alloted to plant nurseries and playgrounds. This ratio of open area (23%) to residential area (56%) is hard to match in most of the well-planned localities of Pakistan.It is very clear from the f...

LASIK information
2008-09-02 08:59:00
LASIk technology is creating waves by the benefits people are getting out of it. Some people are still have some misconception due to lack of LASIK information. Explore iLASIK and learn about LASIK technology and how it can help, how is it affordable, safety and rather simple. LASIK technology, uses two lasers instead of one. In the first stage of iLASIK, wave-front technology maps the unique characteristics of the individual?s eyes. Then, an ultrafast, computer-guided laser creates a corneal flap. This laser replaces the handheld microkeratome blade used in older forms of LASIK and makes the procedure exceptionally safe. After the flap is created, the wave-front mapping data guides a second laser for vision correction. The combination of these advanced laser technologies creates a custom-fit procedure clinically proven to provide excellent safety and visual results. NASA and the U.S. military increase the performance of mission-critical personnel using laser vision correction techn...

The two Houses of parliament and the four provincial assemblies, acting as an electoral college, will elect a new president on Sept 6.One should like to think that the person they choose will have the qualifications that answer his job description spelled out in the constitution.The president is head of the state and represents the unity of the republic.

Arundhati Roy, The Guardian, August 22 2008Kashmir is in crisis: the region's Muslims are mounting huge non-violent protests against the Indian government's rule. But, asks Arundhati Roy, what would independence for the territory mean for its people?For the past 60 days or so, since about the end of June, the people of Kashmir have been free. Free in the most profound sense. They have shrugged off the terror of living their lives in the gun-sights of half a million heavily armed soldiers, in the most densely militarised zone in the world.After 18 years of administering a military occupation, the Indian government's worst nightmare has come true. Having declared that the militant movement has been crushed, it is now faced with a non-violent mass protest, but not the kind it knows how to manage. This one is nourished by people's memory of years of repression in which tens of thousands have been killed, thousands have been "disappeared", hundreds of thousands tortured, injured, and...

Getting Paid For Blogging
2008-08-25 16:50:00
Blogging is no more a new phenomenon in Pakistan. Many Pakistani online users are writing their own and rest are reading others' blogs and interacting in meaningful ways. Their voice is being heard in the blogsphere. Getting paid for blogging is still a new idea in Pakistan though.There are reasons for this. Ironically, corporate Pakistan is not aware of blogs as economical, effective and interactive marketing tool. Like anywhere else, blogs can be a welcome mat for local businesses to reach out across the world but this has not started happening yet. Which is why Pakistan blogsphere can be characterized by only anti-establishment, noncommercial write-ups and rants. Exceptions aside, Pakistan blogs are mainly personal where bloggers post purely because of their own interests.One wonder why local businesses have failed to notice the growing readership and influence of these Internet postings and the buzz they can create particularly as a process of Search Engine Marketing, targeting...

Time to Move On
2008-08-24 07:40:00
Anwar SyedThe present government prefers to blame its predecessor for the ills afflicting the country instead of working to cure them. It may be that it has neither the requisite will nor the skills.The PPP?PML-N entered into a coalition to form the government nearly five months ago. Since then it has been professing two overriding concerns, namely: (1) making democracy ?real? by eradicating dictatorship and (2) ensuring the judiciary?s independence by reinstating the deposed judges.Gen Musharraf did indeed rule Pakistan openly as a dictator until October 2002, and then covertly during the PML-Q?s quasi civilian regime. But he cannot be deemed to have operated a dictatorship after the PPP?PML-N coalition had taken power. Under the circumstances while the president retained the authority to dissolve the National Assembly in the event of a constitutional breakdown and the authority to make certain appointments (neither of which he had the occasion to exercise), he could not do anythin...

Land of Lasies
2008-08-23 09:00:00
Attitude tourism - to be distinguished from, say, adventure or seeing the sights - is generally not a particularly satisfying activity. Ideas and those who hatch them tend not to leave behind things large or attractive enough to ogle. So you may go to a place of great historic value but find nothing worth the visit. Lasbela tract is a case in point. Usually, you are left, if you are lucky, with a plaque or just an intrinsic thought. So I expected, more or less, nothing in Lasbela.What I got was signs in lieu of plaques, hot wind, remnants of crumbling columns, and a long view of the undergrowth of thorny bushes, some wildflowers, functional Persian wells and rocky hilltops covered with camel and sheep droppings. It was all prosaic and quiet and yet real enough to propel me into another fit of wonder: I was driving on the tract where Alexander and Muhammad Bin Qasim had treaded.One does not have to travel to have fun alone. I understand that. But I know of few surer ways to achieve w...

International Ramsr Site

The twin villages Ucchali and Dhadhar are the place to be for those who seek happiness in being close to the raw nature and to find the most alluring and fascinating places off the beaten track.To travel as a person interested in nature (as if there were other ways to travel) is to have regrets these days.

Only one has to find them.The surroundings of these two quaint villages are examples: a complex of three lakes recognized as International Ramsar Site , hills in the background, tall grass, walking trails, and wonderful people. Wetlands are picturesque with their foliage of different kinds of towering grasses, their meadows of floating lotus leaves, their myriads of waterfowl of diverse species. In seasons when lotus and grass come into bud, the lakes present an exquisite appearance, as the water surface along the shore and marshy patches ...

"Women wear the pants, pay the bills and compete with the big boys,? is a cry in Candace Bushnell's new novel "Lipstick Jungle, ?The women in this book have realized that you can't completely rely on men. ?They are not looking to be swept off their pedicured feet, nor are they content to be the proverbial woman behind every great man.? In fact, more often than not, the XY chromosomes in Ms. Bushnell's jungle are depicted as spineless, useless, or worse; ridiculous.Like The Opt-Out Revolution by Lisa Belkin, assertions in Lipstick Jungle are going to creat a great debate; attention, criticisim both my men as well as women.The questions here are do women need big men for success and self-actualization? Do men make women glow? How else can they shine with the fullness of life? Or axiom like men and women complementing each other still holds some water.

Travelling on Grand Trunk Road all my life, it captured my imagination as a cultural curiosity when I read Rudyard Kipling's Kim. At the beginning of the last century Kipling called it "a wonderful spectacle.... without crowding.... green-arched, shade-flecked ... a river of life." But Pakistan's National Highway Number 5 (N-5), alias the Grand Trunk Road, or simply the GT Road, presents a different impression now. Commuting up and down the GT Road are caravans of trucks, buses, cars, animals and animal transport also auto-rickshaws, all having equal right of the way. On the GT Road every bus, truck, and a car must pass the vehicle ahead. "The GT Road," a veteran traveller John Otto wrote says, "really belongs to the trucker." And he is right in a way.So much has changed since Kipling's description of the GT Road, which he saw "brimming with all manner of travellers -- rich merchants with elephants and camels laden with merchandise, guarded by retainers.

Recently, I came across this news, ?Porsche will be using Porsche Direct Injection. The brand new direct-injected A91 flat six in the 911 Turbo, GT2, and GT3 models. The two turbocharged 911?s will have 3.6 liters of displacement with a 97mm bore and an 81.5 mm stroke. They will also have intercoolers and revised turbochargers. Sources suggest that output on both models will rise by around 20 hp, with the Turbo producing 500 hp and the GT2 pushing out approximately 550 hp. Torque figures should also increase by around four percent. The GT3 will stick with the naturally aspirated 3.8-liter version of the A91 with a 102 mm bore and a 77.5 mm stroke. The same internal changes from the Carrera S will carry over to the GT3, including lightweight pistons, valves and springs. Output should increase from around 415 to 430 hp.

It may be wonderful adventures to attract more birds, fireflies and or butterflies and so many other creatures to your own garden in courtyard, backyard or rooftop?All wild species have four basic requirements for existence: food, water, shelter, and places to breed. Look around and one notices that the home garden, how small it may be, may already be providing habitat for some of the wildlife. Plants in the garden provide food in the farm of seeds, fruits, nuts, and nectar and or a nesting and breeding places to the birds? Even dead or dying trees (some time placed for decoration) are haunts for some species. They are excavated and used by woodpeckers, squirrels, and a multitude of insects and cavity-nesting birds, such as owls, bluebirds, chickadees, and wrens.Make sure to include at least one good clump of evergreen trees and shrubs to provide year-round protective cover from weather and predators while choosing plants ...

Migratory Birds
2008-08-19 08:34:00
Pakistan receives a large number of migratory birds from Europe and Central Asian States every year. These birds spend the winters in Pakistan and go back to their native habitats in the summers. The route these birds take from Siberia to Pakistan is known as International Migratory Birds ' Route Number 4. It is also called the Green Route or Indus Flyway. Out of seven flyways, Indus Flyway is one of the busiest routes. Birds begin their journey in November. February is the peak time and by March they start flying back. These periods may vary depending upon weather conditions in Siberia and in Pakistan.Birds' migration is of different forms: diurnal (during day), nocturnal (night flights), altitudinal (from heights to lower parts) and latitudinal (from north to south). One of the reasons for migration is that food is not available in indigenous habitats during winter seasons. Other factors include changes in temperature, reduced daylight hours, and instinctive behaviour.The Indus F...
