Facebook the social networking site requests its users to add friends or have a circle friends. Yet as it is the nature of those who absolute hypocrites - the purpose is not enable people to come together, it is deny them access to any social contact. Say one thing, do exactly the opposite. Facebook should enable adding people not denying it. It has happened so often that it has become irritating, what is the point of Facebook, make enemies and manipulate them or make friends? For all intents and purposes Facebook hopeless in the task of Social Networking. Instead of encouraging people to meet people it is doing exactly the opposite. Perhaps there is language barrier and huge cultural difference. If choose add people, that is precisely what I like to do. In Facebook and chat sites that I have seen, the purpose is not exchange ideas and points of view, it is dead silence and indifference. This is a sign of a disastrous social attitude. Meeting people for the sake of meeting them is so

The floods could be a blessing in disguise. Under military rule - ever since General Ayub took over the military expenditure expanded and it was set in stone that it should remain 80% of the annual budget, come hell or high water . That leaves the government with 20% -10% for attempting to pay back the loans given by the World Bank, IMF and other organisations. The remaining 10% is left development, infrastructure, education, health and to run the government. Since the military is unwilling to let government have more money for Pakistan all kinds of problems have arisen. The washing away of roads and bridges is because the miltary is not concerned with progress and prosperity of Pakistan. What the military does not realise is that unless Pakistan prospers - the miltary will also not be survive. Military budget allocation has to be sensible. Despite this allocation - Pakistan lost most of Siachin to India. In the 1965 War, there was a chance to win back Kashmir. General Ayub was afrai

“Get out of here” The banker screamed, when the beggar came in. “Why” Asked the beggar. “Because you’re beggar” The banker says “Of course I’m one” The beggar said. “Then go” “No” “Do you want me to call the police” The banker shouts. “No, I want to open an account” “Don’t talk nonsense, you’re beggar” “I know, but I still want to open account” “You’re a beggar and you cannot possibly have anything” “You'r wrong I would not say that, I have enough to open account” “How much?” The beggar shows him a Rs 100 note. “Where did you get that? “Someone gave it to me” “Who?” “I don’t know?” “you don’t? “Yes” “Someone gave you money for what?” “nothing” “Why? Why would any one give you money for nothing?” “Because…I’m…a…beggar?” “I knew what you’ll say that. You really want to open account?” “yes” “Well, sit down, you will have to answer some questions” “Ok, ask them” “Where did you get money from” “From begging” “Do you have

For the followers of religion and the true believers, the Great Flood has returned. It was revealed that when Noah encountered the Great Flood, he built the ark to save people. It was a new beginning, order had to be restored. Mankind faced the greatest peril at that time and Noah was their saviour. Noah’s name is in the religious books. The Great Flood was to tell the world about the great power of God and his unification. Only true believers would this Great Flood portends. Mankind has again reached the edge of the precipice. Like the rivers change their course, mankind can also avoid the course it is has adopted. This time humanity has been left to choose the direction it wants to go. Instead of going the way of Matually Assured Destruction and the Nuclear Holocaust. This can be avoided and humanity will saved. Otherwise this Great Flood is the Great Flood of apocolypse and the beginning of the End of Days. The Great Flood is year zero. From this year onward humanity can avoid

Zardari is visiting the UK despite the fact that he had condemned and snubbed by the British prime minister. "God! has the man no shame?" He is also going at the time when Pakistan is suffering the worst flooding since 1929. He should have some consideration for the people of Pakistan at this time. Up to 600 people have died because of these floods. No relief is forthcoming. Which is something he probably can never do, unless there is massive bribe for him somewhere. The fact he is going only to Britain is not for the benefit of Pakistan, but check out all the loot he has gathered in Britain. He is also going in an official plane filled with his lackeys and his 'friends'. This will cost Pakistan about $500 million. Money which could be used to provide relief to those who are starving because of these floods. But does President of Pakistan Asif Ali Zardari care? Not one bit. The USA is not too happy with existing government and Pakistan on the whole.

No one in Pakistani TV channels has studied journalism. They do not know the first thing about it. The concept of Redundancy is an essential aspect. Redundancy is a mass communication term, those who do know what this term means, need not bother. But for those who do, yesterday was example of Redundancy gone amok. Every single channel was reporting the same thing throughout the day. The air crash was a sad thing to happen, but it does not justify any sensible news organisation go on telecasting it. The weirdest part of it was that, none of them had any facts with them. They were stuck with the plane had crashed and an attempt to rescue any survivors was going on. What many people missed the point that why had so many people showed up at where the plane had crashed? None of these news organisations have the questions Five Ws and the Single H. Because do not know how to ask and what to ask and who to ask. They are incompetent in every aspect of the field of journalism. This is not jo

Should the government should provide 90% subsidy all food items and not impose Valued Added Tax? 2.The government should be responsible for price control 3. Banking secrecy, the money saved or withdrawn from a bank should not be the business of the government. The existing
