But the name of Pakistan's rising star “Begum Nawazish Ali” is very well-known abroad. Overseas Pakistanis and even other communities like the show and watch program off satellite! It is in itself a great success story. <br />
The talk show host making waves in the <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Islamic Republic of Pakistan</a> is purportedly a stylish, middle-aged, socialite widow of an army colonel. Her monologues are often laced with sexual innuendo; she flirts openly with her guests, and sometimes by finding opportunities embarrasses them with sensitive questions about their private lives but in a very candid way. Her guests include some of Pakistan's most well-known personalities: the urban elite, film and television stars and even some top politicians. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJvlF9eo8EI/AAAAAAAAAUY/2k8RntvPVyE/s1600/bna2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="138" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJvlF9eo8EI/AAAAAAAAAUY/2k8RntvPVyE/s200/bna2.jpg" width="200" /></a>Astonish thing here is that Begum Nawazish Ali is actually a man. <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/late-night-show-with-begum-nawazish-ali.html">Ali Saleem</a>, the 28-year-old man who done lipstick, mascara and a wig to appear as Begum Nawazish Ali. Certainly no Pakistani woman on television could get away with the kind of double entendres she gets away with. Female guests often find themselves comparing wardrobes and jewelry with her, while male guests have had to bear the brunt of a suggestive proposition from her. Genuinely Begum Nawazish Ali is too sophisticated as compared with other popular industry stars. <br />
Due to her popularity and the show grooming the fact is that advertising rates during its weekend prime time slot are triple that of other shows in similar slots. Saleem is now one of the highest paid television hosts in the country and is constantly receiving offers from rival channels to bring the show to them. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJvlHaQtFMI/AAAAAAAAAUg/Q971yMgBzEI/s1600/bna3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJvlHaQtFMI/AAAAAAAAAUg/Q971yMgBzEI/s200/bna3.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">According to Saleem the success is not an arduous three-hour hair and make-up session before the recording of a show. It can be one philosophical minor reason about why the show has clicked with audiences. But on a broader level "<a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/late-night-show-with-begum-nawazish-ali.html">Begum Nawazish Ali</a> inspires women in particular because she is a strong, glamorous, opinionated woman who is unafraid of saying what she thinks and of flirting with men if she feels like it" and "Men, on the other hand, find her intriguing because she transcends all kinds of restrictions and plays with their imagination." </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJvlI3dQPaI/AAAAAAAAAUo/CoB-johFlY0/s1600/bna4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJvlI3dQPaI/AAAAAAAAAUo/CoB-johFlY0/s200/bna4.jpg" width="135" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Saleem got his first big break famously impersonating former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto in theater and on television, but says it's the Ali character that brings out the real woman inside him. He claims he has "only received love, adoration and respect, never anything evenly remotely negative." Moreover, he wants to be the voice of the youth and for all of Pakistan. The idea was always to break barriers and preconceived notions, of gender, identity, <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/late-night-show-with-begum-nawazish-ali.html">celebrity and politics</a> and to bring people closer. In any case, truly Begum Nawazish Ali is the strongest woman in Pakistan!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-22619085355693340632010-09-21T15:29:00.000-07:002010-09-21T15:45:00.793-07:00Luxurious Shopping Mall in Pakistan: Mall of Lahore<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJkw-YW58CI/AAAAAAAAAUI/_iVsrnL647k/s1600/mol.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJkw-YW58CI/AAAAAAAAAUI/_iVsrnL647k/s200/mol.jpg" width="133" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">The <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/luxurious-shopping-mall-in-pakistan.html">Park Lane Tower</a>, also known as The Mall of Lahore is located at the heart of city's cantonment area.

After directing her first play in 1994 she went on to create work which ranges from short independent art films to commercial serials for television. Her success as a director can be assessed by the fact that her work has appeared in many <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/celebrity-in-focus-mehreen-jabbar.html">film festivals</a> around the world including The Hong Kong International Film Festival, The San Francisco Asian-American Film Festival, and The Leeds Film Festival in U. K. to name a few. At home, Pakistan, her exceptional style of story-telling has earned her much praise and several awards. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJfN0FfkSrI/AAAAAAAAATo/RI_cao0-RxE/s1600/mahreen+father.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJfN0FfkSrI/AAAAAAAAATo/RI_cao0-RxE/s200/mahreen+father.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Mehreen grew up around Pakistan's show business. Her father, <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/celebrity-in-focus-mehreen-jabbar.html">Javed Jabbar</a>, is also a filmmaker himself. He has also been running a highly successful advertising agency for about 30 years where she got her first exposure to the television world. Further she went to the United States in order to study film and completed a two year program at University of California Los Angeles. She describes this experience as a crucial part of her training because her teachers were working professionals from the film industry who were able to provide real insights on the art and business of film making.<br />
<a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/celebrity-in-focus-mehreen-jabbar.html">Mehreen </a>returned to Pakistan to practice her skills professionally. Her first play in 1994 was called “Nivala” which was based on a short story by Ismat Chugtai, one of the foremost authors in the Urdu language. Unfortunately, the decision makers at the state run television of that time declined from airing “Nivala” because it was based on the work of an Indian writer and, subsequently, the idea for the entire series was cancelled. Though this was a hinder but it did not deter Mehreen from doing what she loves. She continued to make short films, feature length plays, and drama serials.<br />
Due to the low quality of films being produced in Pakistan and the shady atmosphere at cinema houses, going to a theater is not a feasible form of entertainment for the mainstream public. Thus, television remains by and far the most popular source of family entertainment. So that has been the industry to which vast majority of writers, producers, directors, as well as, actors turn who wish to polish their expertise and create work with depth and meaning for the audience.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJfNvhNZ3oI/AAAAAAAAATg/NabNekpvSTQ/s1600/mj2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="132" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJfNvhNZ3oI/AAAAAAAAATg/NabNekpvSTQ/s200/mj2.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Much of Mehreen’s work has focused on the everyday lives of average Pakistani women and the conflicts they experience from day to day. On the other hand, several directors have created fine plays which are obvious in their attempts to raise awareness of women's rights; Mehreen enjoys the challenge of applying nicety to get her message across. Her viewers often find themselves immersed in the minds of her characters in order to fully understand the characters’ motives. Her telefilm, “Putli Ghar”’ is an example of such work. Another telefilm “Farar” is about three friends, a widow, a working woman, and a third woman who is a student of classical dance. The play shows the struggle of each woman to sort out her life and find a unique identity for herself.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJfNuCZJhGI/AAAAAAAAATY/WgrBM2iXGD4/s1600/mf1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="148" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJfNuCZJhGI/AAAAAAAAATY/WgrBM2iXGD4/s200/mf1.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">To Mehreen experimenting with a story is one of the most interesting parts of creating a play. She believes that producers are playing it safe and are flat to take on projects which are based on a proven storyline for success. The result is that the same basic plot is repeated over and over again in different plays or films such as - Ramchand Pakistani.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Nevertheless, commercial <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistani</a> films remain largely unpopular on the conventional side; hence several independent filmmakers have emerged in recent years, such as, Shireen Pasha, Farjad Nabi, Hassan Zaidi, and Mehreen Jabbar herself, who seem to be breathing a new life into the Pakistani art films. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-43997752699820993942010-09-16T15:45:00.000-07:002010-09-16T15:52:36.718-07:00Obesity and Pakistan!<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJKdbohlffI/AAAAAAAAAS4/jcDuC9U1nfY/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJKdbohlffI/AAAAAAAAAS4/jcDuC9U1nfY/s200/3.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>Prevalence of obesity (BMI or Body Mass Index) in 25-44 year old in rural areas was 9% for men and 14% for women; in urban areas, prevalence was 22% and 37% for men and women, respectively. For 45-64 year old, prevalence was 11% for men and 19% for women in rural areas, and 23% and 40% in urban areas for men and women, respectively. Information resource is the National Health Survey of Pakistan. In South Asia, including <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>, social and environmental changes are occurring rapidly, with increasing urbanization, changing lifestyles, higher energy density of diets, and reduced physical activity.<br />

Food is the vital source of energy necessary for the human body to survive, all types of which with the exception of water contain calories. If the calorie intake exceeds the amount required for the body to function to optimum levels, the body chemistry converts and stores unused energy as fat. Obesity is calculated using a formula known as the <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/obesity-and-pakistan.html">Body Mass Index</a> (BMI). It is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both men and women. A BMI of 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight and one of more than 30 is considered obese. Being significantly overweight is linked to a wide range of health problems including, heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis, diabetes, indigestion, gallstones some cancers, snoring and sleep apnea, stress, anxiety and depression, to name but a few.<br />

However, the fast-food industry has come to be held as one of the main culprits. Indeed there has been a real shift of change in the human diet during the last century since the advent of snack food chains such as McDonald's and KFC. Homemade food has given way to convenient high-energy or high calorie food rich in fat, salt and sugar. On the other hand, the fast food industry has become a huge international business. With a multi-billion dollar turnover in the global fast-food industry, it is no surprise that such international companies will do all they can to keep people eating and the profits rolling in, attempting to convince the public that their products are healthy.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJKdW2l1C2I/AAAAAAAAASw/pWvfc_HcRYg/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJKdW2l1C2I/AAAAAAAAASw/pWvfc_HcRYg/s200/1.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>The food marketing industry that stands accused of targeting in particular young children through provocative adverts and incentives such as free gifts with kids' meals or inside cereal boxes. Also blamed are endorsements from celebrities such as pop stars, sports personalities and TV presenters who all have considerable influence on the choice of food of both children and adults. The nature of desire as a criterion for controlling actions is such that it is constantly fluctuating, with the individual being torn between varieties of differing pleasures. The aim of satisfying desires will never bring peace and contentment to an individual and comes at great cost to both body and soul. When this concept is applied to food and drink, it leads to people enjoying these things to excess; obesity can be considered a natural outcome. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-84033232201167272752010-09-15T16:37:00.000-07:002010-09-15T16:56:26.587-07:00Whoosh impact of flood in Pakistani vicinity!<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">As the summer season moves during July to August that comes up with environmental ruin sometimes in affected areas. <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a> becomes normally recognized as a rapid heating country. The key cause of monsoon seasons lies in the difference of temperature trend and other factors like emission of certain gasses, deforestation, increasing population, industrialization, that all occurs because of lack in following “the rules of Environmental Protection Act 1997”.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJFYNyJYPCI/AAAAAAAAASQ/DvWNb-ex6Sk/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJFYNyJYPCI/AAAAAAAAASQ/DvWNb-ex6Sk/s320/2.jpg" /></a>Monsoon blows from cold to warm region and change of temperature bring rain and catastrophic floods. The intensity and duration of monsoon is not uniform from year to year. This time <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/whoosh-impact-of-flood-in-pakistani.html">monsoon rain</a> raised water level of rivers overflowing to cities and villages, threatening the people from Khyber Pakhtunkhawa province to the people of Sindh and Baluchistan. Melting glacier and global warming raised the rage and fury of floods breaking all previous records in the history of Pakistan. In this misfortune of flood, standing crops of rice, cotton etc were destroyed, “20 million” people are affected, above “1500” dead and more than “9 million” are homeless.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJFYRFHSLWI/AAAAAAAAASg/jhhBvYY2vuo/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TJFYRFHSLWI/AAAAAAAAASg/jhhBvYY2vuo/s200/3.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>The extent of losses of these floods is 500% higher than the earthquake of 2005. Many villages were stuck and houses were destroyed and damaged. The international community is responding. Now Pakistan is at war with terrorists and at the same time facing overwhelming <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/whoosh-impact-of-flood-in-pakistani.html">floods</a>. The war between natural shocking forces and human beings is old history but with experience, courage and scientific progress to a great extent damages is reduced. After effects of flood are visible like destruction of crops, houses, lives, and belonging of people, rises in prices, and unemployment. This devastating catastrophe of floods was unexpected and sudden. There are remote areas which are surrounded on all side by water, making it not immediately possible to communicate, rescue and provide relief. Relief to the affected with the help of the army is being provided. Such type of a <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/whoosh-impact-of-flood-in-pakistani.html">national disaster</a> brings unity and courage among the people.<br />

It is the best way to help ourselves instead of looking to others. This is a time as a nation to face disaster with courage and set up an example in history. Since government has experience to provide relief to internally displaced persons during the earthquake of 2005, therefore, rehabilitation of <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/09/whoosh-impact-of-flood-in-pakistani.html">flood affectors</a> will not be a new experience. Aid to flood affectors should be well planned. It should be organized like the internally displaced persons of 2005 earthquake. Some negative indicators are also seen, like the stealing of the belongings of the flood affectors. In Karachi some immoral persons on the appearance of flood affectors tried to occupy a vacant building against basic human rights, under section 24 of the constitution of Pakistan. It is necessary to keep observation on illicit. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-22592390351384693912010-09-08T15:22:00.000-07:002010-09-08T15:27:05.026-07:00Celebrity in focus: Vaneeza Ahmed<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TIgLWUnGB2I/AAAAAAAAARo/WC_JQB2jZwE/s1600/a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TIgLWUnGB2I/AAAAAAAAARo/WC_JQB2jZwE/s200/a.jpg" width="181" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><i>Vaneeza Ahmed nicknamed Vinny born on June 29, 1971 is a Pakistani model and actress.

The strange thing about it is the lake is said to have been discovered in 1993 by <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a> Air Force pilots who were flying low above the area. Earlier, the lake was not even known to the locals. The name comes from its drop-like shape “the Urdu word Ansoo means tear”. </i><br />
To reach this fascinating place one need to first come to Saif ul maluk Lake and then from there it takes one whole day if started earlier in the morning. One should travel for this in the season of July-August; because in the ends of August, there would be start of snow fall and even local people start evacuate these areas because of heavy snow fall in those areas. People having some breathing problems like Asthma, are not recommended for this. Because the air pressure will be lower at high altitudes and the tough hike could affect badly on such patients.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TH12oz0OFoI/AAAAAAAAAQQ/-7gTnlqfKlE/s1600/ANSOO+LAKE+winter.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TH12oz0OFoI/AAAAAAAAAQQ/-7gTnlqfKlE/s320/ANSOO+LAKE+winter.jpg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">A far as clothing is concerned one needs to have some water proof clothes and especially take care of shoes and socks. Heavy rain can start any time there so one could need spare clothes too. For food items chocolates are best substitute of energy lose along with it mineral water & orange juice also a quick refill of energy requirements for such a place. <br />
Before reaching on the top of the mountain where Ansoo Lake is situated one may find a “Dead Lake” as it is in a shape of Cup so better known in Urdu as “<a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/discover-pakistan-ansoo-lake.html">Piyala Lake</a>”. While reaching on the final destiny one may find it uninteresting due to the snow all around but it is quite a nice place for picnic because all the time it is surrounded by dark & thick clouds. The scenes are really enjoyable there. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TH12oSycglI/AAAAAAAAAQI/Pn14gAP-aMk/s1600/Ansoo+lake+summar.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TH12oSycglI/AAAAAAAAAQI/Pn14gAP-aMk/s200/Ansoo+lake+summar.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">As this place is on the top of the mountain and involves so much hiking one may feel dizziness but it is pretty normal because of the Low oxygen at high altitudes. By going through the gorgeous beauty of the “<a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/discover-pakistan-ansoo-lake.html">Ansoo Lake</a>” people feel refresh within seconds by themselves without consuming any energy drink.<br />
This eternal beauty change drastically during each season like in spring it surrounds by the snow just start melting, in summer it all around covered by the greenery, in autumn the lake is skied by dark clouds, and finally in winter the whole place including the tear shape lake occupied by white stunning snow blanket. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-13564730351414117472010-08-29T15:21:00.000-07:002010-08-29T15:44:02.360-07:00Degree of bluntness of Pakistani news channels!<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THrT0FLSYvI/AAAAAAAAAPQ/auM_mdfbNew/s1600/Pak+news.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THrT0FLSYvI/AAAAAAAAAPQ/auM_mdfbNew/s320/Pak+news.jpg" /></a><i>Country like Pakistan which has lack of everything is surprisingly abounded in the news channels.

Every literate Pakistani is in hurry to leave Pakistan as soon as Possible. Today more highly qualified <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistani</a> young gentlemen are serving Foreign Nations than serving their Homeland. And this is what westerns dream to see “a Confused Muslim Nation, with its youth with no purpose in life” and no attention towards Science and human development. News Channels serve only to show the bad about Pakistanis and Muslim. In short Most of these channels are ran and funded by western Companies. This Business is bringing them jewels plus serving their religious motives.

She described herself as “a civil society horse”. She has not written anything significant during the last seven or eight years as first her mother died and then she lost her two sisters.

In Auraq, the literary program that ran for about two years on PTV, she vividly depicted the culture of the area whether Sindh, Punjab, Baluchistan, Frontier or Kashmir in the stories she included in the program. She surprised many literary critics when she came up with wedding songs purported to be written by A<a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/fatima-surayya-bajia.html">mir Khusrau</a>. She normally snatches of Amir Khusrau’s poetry in a way pick one line or a stanza and then turned them into a complete geet format. She found this activity a more stimulating one as she very well aware of the vocabulary used during that era. By seeing the current crises faced by Pakistan she thinks that the situation in the country is frightening. But she believes in Allah and that He will set things right because among 18 million people at least 16 million are quite innocent and uncritical people. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"></span><o:p></o:p></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-17582019915516106562010-08-24T15:20:00.000-07:002010-08-24T15:46:42.623-07:00Skincare treatments for Pakistani women!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THREc7-bG0I/AAAAAAAAAMo/tBM2huzxpRw/s1600/water+wash.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THREc7-bG0I/AAAAAAAAAMo/tBM2huzxpRw/s320/water+wash.bmp" width="282" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">The climate of Pakistan is quite hot & dry. All the women in such scenario seek the best skin care products to enhance their beauty or hide any blemishes in daily life. Everyone struggles with skin care issues from time to time and would apply a few general treatments for the healthy skin. In dry climates a decrease in moistness frequently leaves skin feeling dry and uncomfortable. This is particularly true for any layers of the dermis that have been injured by the sun. For this explanation, keeping the skin well hydrated is of greater significance for those who live in very dry climates than for those in clamminess like <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>. Hydrated skin begins with a hydrated body. Drink ample of water to offer natural moisture in addition to flush out toxins. Exfoliation is also vital to liberate the skin of old, dry and dead skin cells. The main method of battling dryness is to use a high quality moisturizing lotion for body. Sun, wind, and dry air can also be insensitive on hands.

Firstly apply “sugar mask” every week it works for everyone in three ways as one: it brings life to skin and make it smooth. Two it makes the skin shine a little bit more as it wash out the whole week stored dust through the external <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/skincare-treatments-for-pakistani-women.html">skin pores</a>. Three with these two benefits it removes the unwanted hair through skin which darkens the original complexion of the skin.<br />
It is easy to prepare the mask. Three ingredients involve in making first one is white egg portion, second is 2 tab spoon of sugar, 4 drops of lemon juice. Simply stir white egg portion well in pan and then mix up 2 tab spoon of sugar and heat up so that sugar entirely soluble. In last add 4 drops of lemon juice and again heat up a little bit more. Apply on the skin with moderate temperature.

For this apply “wheat mask” on the affected skin portion twice in a week. Mix wheat flour with vinegar and apply on face where the dark circles are appearing leave the mask until it dries and then wash out with water. In a nut shell, to keep you skin clean, smooth, and fresh & ready for make up all the time apply “<a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/skincare-treatments-for-pakistani-women.html">Rose water</a>” as a skin cleanser, make up remover and bed time care at night. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-8495862449648863512010-08-23T15:29:00.000-07:002010-08-23T15:38:46.054-07:00Appropriate attire for a Pakistani working lady!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLyfuS8vCI/AAAAAAAAALo/RqsUj5Q4xrk/s1600/d.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLyfuS8vCI/AAAAAAAAALo/RqsUj5Q4xrk/s200/d.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In Pakistan too much fabric likes a large dupatta and too many accessories which seem totally impractical for the office environment. It is distracting for clients and no one wants to be taking care of outfit all day. However, its alternative can be conservative but very smart and perfect with a tailored outfit and a scarf. When the outfit requires too much maintenance it is not comfortable for a <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/appropriate-attire-for-pakistani.html">working lady </a>or the people dealing with her. It is important to look good and have people concentrate on work activities rather than the person. Until the job scenario itself requires from oneself to be the center of attention at workplace. </span></i><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Looking good is very crucial. However, the key is to balance look. Since in <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a> the summer is so long thus lighter colors are preferred. One can go with bright but just be careful not to blind people with colors. Over-accessorizing and too much color or embroidery, badly stitched ill-fitting clothes are obviously not go with the office requirements. Smart and professional people are always taken more seriously that how they looks in any environment. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLwRaSe48I/AAAAAAAAALY/8zAuRLoUTQw/s1600/b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLwRaSe48I/AAAAAAAAALY/8zAuRLoUTQw/s320/b.jpg" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLwWZC4X8I/AAAAAAAAALg/9TnLc1LtmKo/s1600/c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLwWZC4X8I/AAAAAAAAALg/9TnLc1LtmKo/s320/c.jpg" width="212" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">However in some environments one can be himself/herself and have the ability to express others through his style probably in personal presentation of any particular project or the business parties. Sweaters provide color and variety to <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/appropriate-attire-for-pakistani.html">woman's clothing</a>, but they should be appealing rather than revealing. Inappropriate necklines and waistlines can give the wrong impression. When it comes to accessories and jewelry, less is once again more. Keep it simple: one ring per hand, one earring in each ear. Accessories should reflect your personality, not diminish your credibility. Faces, not feet, should be the focal point in business so chose conservative shoes. A low heel is more professional than flats or high heels. In spite of current fashion and the sandal rage, open-toed or backless shoes are not office attire. Not only are sandals a safety hazard, they suggest a certain official agenda. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLwMeWp8VI/AAAAAAAAALQ/wbqnHLEEvpU/s1600/a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THLwMeWp8VI/AAAAAAAAALQ/wbqnHLEEvpU/s320/a.jpg" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THL1fmYXREI/AAAAAAAAALw/H9qbaZtGo-s/s1600/e.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THL1fmYXREI/AAAAAAAAALw/H9qbaZtGo-s/s200/e.jpg" width="173" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In a nut shell the same overall rules apply to <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/appropriate-attire-for-pakistani.html">women's work attire</a> as apply to men's. Business clothing is not a reflection of the latest fashion trend. A woman should be noticed for who she is and her professional skills rather than for what she wears. Her business wear should be appropriate for her industry and her position or title within the industry. Investing in a good business wardrobe is an investment in your professional future. For those who think it's not what you wear but who you are that creates success, give that some more thought. Business skills and experience count, but thus does personal appearance and that all-important first impression. </span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-88586498982654507172010-08-23T02:33:00.000-07:002010-08-23T02:34:47.322-07:00Deliverance of women in Pakistan!<div style="text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THJAFyHaAGI/AAAAAAAAALI/-xrmK3luzz8/s1600/asd.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/THJAFyHaAGI/AAAAAAAAALI/-xrmK3luzz8/s320/asd.jpg" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Women whether working or not working as professionals are not placed only as label of custodian of family but should be responsible of character building of the whole society. Societies are built on the personalities of women which superficially look under control of men in <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>. A capable woman act like backbone of any family, if one of her disqualifies comprising of her values, character, hardworking and devotion for her family and surroundings slips, all matters shatter around men of her concern according to the men dominant culture here. Except in feudal culture her liberation is any way disturbed by the system itself. Women are dominant in all matters of her interests. If she has a wish to exceed in any matter she has lot of opportunity to excel depending upon her devotion, commitment and passion for that particular goal.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In Pakistan the girl’s brought up matters automatically is developing her sense of liberation. Some woman love to behave like childish nature and some families’ groom their girl child as confident and equal sharing person. They are picked by their spouses for their qualities. If Parents themselves degraded their girl child and let them down in front of a male partner she would naturally lose her sense of liberation or might react opposite to this and become disobedient and reactive to hold her importance in this system in which she was first disregarded by her parents.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Those women accept rudeness of men who take it normal from their family life styles and this trend is common in our lower, middle and so called top elite class with the same intensity in the whole Pakistani families no matter resides in whatever country. For lower class it becomes obvious to all as they are in majority and live in open spaces as compared to enclosed elite class who before coming out polish their traces of abused behavior in artificial get up. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The Pakistani women of today enjoy a better status than most Muslim and Middle Eastern women. However, on an average, the women's situation as compared to men is one of systemic subordination although there have been attempts by the government and enlightened groups to elevate the status of women in <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistani society</a>. In late 2006, the Pakistani parliament passed the Women's Protection Bill, repealing some of the Hudood Ordinances. The bill allowed for DNA and other scientific evidence to be used in prosecuting rape cases. The passing of the Bill and the consequent signing of it into law by President General Pervez Musharraf invoked protests from hard-line Islamic leaders and organization. Some experts also stated that the reforms will be impossible to enforce. President Asif Ali Zardari on January 29, 2010 signed the “Protection against Harassment of Women at Workplace Bill 2009” which the parliament adopted on January 21, 2010. These are steps have been taken to give more freedom to the <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/deliverance-of-women-in-pakistan.html">women of Pakistan</a> so that they can play a vital role in nation building with ease but it needs true implementation from other ends of parties. </span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-42116823619276297682010-08-07T16:38:00.000-07:002010-08-07T16:43:41.839-07:00Delicious Food of Pakistan<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TF3tcngMB7I/AAAAAAAAAK4/U6Y__LuzuNs/s1600/food1_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TF3tcngMB7I/AAAAAAAAAK4/U6Y__LuzuNs/s200/food1_1.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><i>Pakistani Food is rich in its flavor and taste. <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/08/delicious-food-of-pakistan.html">Pakistani Cuisine</a> is very spicy and has been greatly influenced by the afghan, Iranian and Turkish cooking style.

Monsoons may be considered as large-scale sea breezes, due to seasonal heating and the resulting development of a thermal low over a continental landmass. They are caused by the larger amplitude of the seasonal cycle of land temperature compared to that of nearby oceans. In winter, the land cools off quickly, but the ocean retains heat longer. The cold air over the land creates a high pressure area which produces a breeze from land to ocean. Monsoons are similar to sea and land breezes, a term usually referring to the localized, daily cycle of circulation near coastlines, but they are much larger in scale, stronger and seasonal. </i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TFNBHMnzeaI/AAAAAAAAAIo/IE4vr5uFTos/s1600/2384068905_405655f48f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TFNBHMnzeaI/AAAAAAAAAIo/IE4vr5uFTos/s200/2384068905_405655f48f.jpg" width="200" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TFNBIvdzJEI/AAAAAAAAAIw/iVbaZobKwG8/s1600/images+moo+n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TFNBIvdzJEI/AAAAAAAAAIw/iVbaZobKwG8/s200/images+moo+n.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"> The summer monsoons roar onto the subcontinent from the southwest.

Entire villages have been swept away during <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">monsoon</a> rains. Despite the potential for destruction, the summer monsoons are warmly welcomed in Pakistan. Farmers depend on the rains for their land irrigation. Additionally, a great deal of Pakistan’s electricity is generated by water power provided by the monsoon rains. Foreign people come from abroad to visit <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan </a>in the month of August during the monsoon season because the atmosphere is quite pleasant during that time.

The whole structure of human life revolves round it. In <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>, the unconstrained and more than needed population detonation has heightened the need to ensure constant access to improved drinking water supply especially in mega cities like Karachi and Lahore where traces of multiple deadly fundamentals including the human feces are reported by laboratory reports.

According to a Hadith, it was stated by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) “Muslims have common share in three things: grass, water and fire”. Moreover, the Holy Quran has also warned the human beings against unfair distribution of common goods and Islamic scholars agree that Islam forbids unfair assumptions, exploitation and uneven earnings of common goods like water.<br />

This scarcity of clean drinking water can be more visibly seen in rural areas where up to 90 percent of the inhabitants may lack such access. On the other side, only three percent of Pakistan’s sweet water resources are used for household purposes and drinking. As one warning of the high-scale of the drinking problem prevalent in our society and the public ignorance of it, it is anticipated that more than 2.5 lac infant children die of diarrheal diseases every year.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Bottled water, it may be noted, should not be taken as an appropriate replacement to a sufficient service of tap-water as due to the lack of it, ill fated buyers are forced to use bottled water. During the past thirty years, use of bottled water is increasingly moved up the world over, as it has become a global phenomenon. Bottled water sector, despite its excessively high price compared to tap water, is measured as one of the powerful sectors of all the food and beverage trade as its consumption increases by an average of 12% every year. Government has termed the bottled water market, with 33 million liters of consumption per annum in 2009 & still the ratio is growing by a multiplication factor.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-54124266116963738872010-07-20T15:18:00.000-07:002010-07-20T15:18:21.309-07:00Crisis in Pakistani cinema -Film Industry<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><i>The Pakistani film industry named as “Lollywood” after Hollywood & Bollywood gain recognition have been in crisis for nearly a decade. Many cinemas had closed down. Their number came down from nearly thousands to hundreds. The remaining too had few films to show as the local film industry was not producing quality films and these too were few in number. The result was that cinema going culture almost vanished. In the last one year about 17 Indian films were released. Though most failed to do any boisterous business but still the cinema industry got lot of support. On the other hand the film industry crisis is likely to deepen as the local investors are showing reluctance to fund any major film. The Indian films dominate at the Pakistani box office. </i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TEYgitsjCeI/AAAAAAAAAIA/Oj7KIjVqMII/s1600/Cinema.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="251" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TEYgitsjCeI/AAAAAAAAAIA/Oj7KIjVqMII/s400/Cinema.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">No one is interested in saving the Pakistani film industry. They want to make money only even by exhibiting Indian films. The government has opened doors for the Indian film industry but did nothing to save the local film industry. The local film industry is likely to collapse in view of the fact that we do not have resources to match the Indian films budget. The government should first have boosted its own industry before opening doors for Indians. <br />
Although the Pakistani films story lines all are original but Indian plagiarized is beating Pakistani cinemas. Moreover, a movie song which is a focal point of a successful film is being ignored here in <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>. Its fact that dance is not allowed in Islam but as people is doing it here too as a profession than there must be dancing schools to groom our expected filmy heroes & heroines.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Government of Pakistan should maintain a rule & regulation list for upcoming talented <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">people of Pakistan </a>in every field so in Film industry too. They should first serve their own country from they too belong. It’s not a good sign for a patriotic nation to do all good stuff for others. All wise fellows will agree to me. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The 60s and 70s better known as “The Golden era of Pakistani cinema” & the heydays when first-class movies were produced at that time “Lollywood” was not only a source of pride but was also a reservoir of pure delight and pleasure for its viewers. It is during this era that the Pakistani film industry was commended for having produced some of the most memorable and recognized films such as Armaan and Teri Yaad.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Names like Waheed Murad, Nadeem and Muhammad Ali managed to change the face of cinema and earn the status of living legends. Even today these names are alive in the hearts of all, so much so that a simple mention of these names is enough to take someone down memory lane and bring a smile to their face. It is Lollywood glorious past that has kept cinema kicking and going and the faith of the people that has enabled it to survive all these years. The masses still believe that cinema has more to offer and that it will soon reach its true potential and deliver quality productions it once boasted.</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-7069571995958960512010-07-17T12:46:00.000-07:002010-07-17T12:46:31.428-07:00Dynamic personality of Pakistan: Faryal Gohar<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TEIG-AU-37I/AAAAAAAAAH4/SNyHyVzCNrA/s1600/32097,xcitefun-faryal-gohar-0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TEIG-AU-37I/AAAAAAAAAH4/SNyHyVzCNrA/s200/32097,xcitefun-faryal-gohar-0.jpg" width="132" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><i>Faryal is at a time doing multiple things like she is a brilliant actress, a television writer & more importantly a self motivated human activist of UNO in <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>. As far as her early life is concerned she was an extra ordinary student who was equally sound for curricular and non-curricular happenings. In Pakistan she belongs to Sindh province and Karachi city. During her entire study life she attended the Lahore American School, Kinnaird College, and finally she did political economy degree from McGill University and documentary film production training from southern California, Europe. </i><br />
Faryal whole family is talented enough as her father was in army, her younger sister, Madiha Gohar, is a splendid artist and an active member of “Ajoka Theater”. Faryal too did work in theater a few years and in 1984 got married to a charming TV personality “Jamal Shah” but the couple got divorced after a few years without mentioning a mature reason to media, viewers or their fans. She has a younger brother name Amir who is an industrial engineer.<br />
As a writer Faryal wrote his first novel named “The Scent of Wet Earth” which was published by Penguin in August, 2002 and ranked 0n 5th position in New York Times International bestseller list. It was based on film-making sensibilities, the consciousness of “other” and knowledge on “animal behavior”. Despite of acting and novel writing Faryal did a lot for Pakistan in other means such as she produce a documentary titled as Pakistan Poverty Assessment. This work contains the laborious research work on 54 districts and concerned the poor people perception of their poverty reasons. <br />
Faryal plans to extend her commitment to environmental preservation and Here her goal is to, “develop a new paradigm for development which respects cultural identities and the natural environment while enhancing the quality of life on this planet.” A loner by nature, Faryal can be extremely gregarious when the occasion arises. Such dynamism makes her an enigma for those who have not met her personally. Faryal is not a high profile scandal seeker. She shuns vacuous social scenes, preferring to spend time with her beloved pet dogs and ‘underdogs.’ An animal rights activist, Faryal cares for an astounding eighteen cats, seven dogs, three goats, and one donkey.<br />
Feryal’s second novel is already being release. The accompanying screenplay is underway, and her film, Tibbi Galli, will be showcased at the Rome International Film Festival. Faryal is at a landmark moment in her life. These achievements and her acceptance by the world community is no small feat given the often virulent xenophobia aimed at Pakistan from abroad, complemented by misrepresentations about this place and its people. Such news may seal the lips of national and international gossip fiends alike. Let us hope that it inspires them to emulate Faryal and adopt more constructive endeavors. <br />

A person is said to be talented if He/She possessed some awesome ability in a particular activity or field. Everyone is talented in one or another way. Nourishing the talent and utilizing it to the best is a challenge. Talent levels will vary from person to person. There is a lack of talents in all areas in <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>. Similarly, competition is always there for getting the talents between organizations and that’s why the talent management attains significance. </i><br />
Every organization needs talented persons in different levels to enhance the efficiency of the company. In this globalized era talented personnel are having demand and are offered good remuneration. For discharging specific tasks talented and work ethic specialists are needed. In every field the case is same. It is not easy to find the right talent needed for the organization and it takes a wholesome effort involving lot of human resource to find the talents and recruit them accordingly. <br />
<a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/2010/07/pakistani-perspective-on-talent.html">Talent management</a> is simply a process of recruitment of talents, developing the skills of existing workforce, promoting and retaining the employees, attracting highly talented and rated employees from other companies etc. Talent management is practiced by human resources department of each and every company around the globe. Performance management is directly linked with talent management. In every organization the challenges as well as strategies are entirely different. Hence the focus is mainly on getting and connecting the talent with the organizational set up as well as making sure that the person can cope up with the organizational challenges and deliver it with strength. <br />
Senior human resource executives are dealing with the talent management and it is very important for companies as there is practice of rival companies attracting away the talents. So motivation and retention of talents in an organization is a real challenge for HR officials. With companies becoming global with overseas acquisitions, keeping the upward growth will depend on cost effectiveness, internal execution of strategies precisely with existing workforce as well as integrating new talents. <br />
Talent management as a best practice is actually competency based and some of the competencies are skills, personal traits, experience as well as knowledge. Talent management is for the optimization of the resources in the organization, henceforth achieving good business results. Developing the talent within the organization is cost effective than really recruiting new ones in some cases and it can be termed as one the talent management best practice as well regarding human resource functions.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834019769988809129.post-56844789878992987512010-07-01T14:22:00.000-07:002010-07-01T14:22:32.475-07:00Importance of work/life balance & Pakistani organizations<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type"></meta><meta content="Word.Document" name="ProgId"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 12" name="Generator"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 12" name="Originator"></meta><link href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CFaheem%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml" rel="File-List"></link><link href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CFaheem%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_themedata.thmx" rel="themeData"></link><link href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CFaheem%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_colorschememapping.xml" rel="colorSchemeMapping"></link><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:TrackMoves/> <w:TrackFormatting/> <w:PunctuationKerning/> <w:ValidateAgainstSchemas/> <w:SaveIfXMLInvalid>false</w:SaveIfXMLInvalid> <w:IgnoreMixedContent>false</w:IgnoreMixedContent> <w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText>false</w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText> <w:DoNotPromoteQF/> <w:LidThemeOther>EN-US</w:LidThemeOther> <w:LidThemeAsian>X-NONE</w:LidThemeAsian> <w:LidThemeComplexScript>X-NONE</w:LidThemeComplexScript> <w:Compatibility> <w:BreakWrappedTables/> <w:SnapToGridInCell/> <w:WrapTextWithPunct/> <w:UseAsianBreakRules/> <w:DontGrowAutofit/> <w:SplitPgBreakAndParaMark/> <w:DontVertAlignCellWithSp/> <w:DontBreakConstrainedForcedTables/> <w:DontVertAlignInTxbx/> <w:Word11KerningPairs/> <w:CachedColBalance/> </w:Compatibility> <m:mathPr> <m:mathFont m:val="Cambria Math"/> <m:brkBin m:val="before"/> <m:brkBinSub m:val="--"/> <m:smallFrac m:val="off"/> <m:dispDef/> <m:lMargin m:val="0"/> <m:rMargin m:val="0"/> <m:defJc m:val="centerGroup"/> <m:wrapIndent m:val="1440"/> <m:intLim m:val="subSup"/> <m:naryLim m:val="undOvr"/> </m:mathPr></w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:LatentStyles DefLockedState="false" DefUnhideWhenUsed="true"

Many factors contribute to intensify family to work interference which mainly includes family responsibilities such as child and elderly care.

But, on the other hand it is quite true that in developing countries he/she has to face more than the developed one. In <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">Pakistan</a>, as in many other developing countries, women are handicapped in society. Therefore they face many challenges, as they do not enjoy the same opportunities as men. They are not only deprived of financial resources but also lack access to basic needs such as education. Limited access to the essentials of life undermines their capabilities, limits their ability to secure gainful employment, and results in low income, poverty and social exclusion. Their ambitions and aspirations are suppressed. </i><br />
Gradually things are improving for women, which have been caused by their tremendous determination and courage. They are entering in the field of education, health, engineering, IT and active participation is seen in the sports and politics arena. About 60% of women <a href="http://humanbeings-pk.blogspot.com/">entrepreneurs in Pakistan </a>have opted for traditional business such as parlors, bakeries, boutiques, but the largest number is employed in the garments and handicrafts sector. One example of such a nice and encouraged lady is Ambreen Bukhari; she is running her jewelry showroom named Menika Mines in posh area of capital city Islamabad. <br />
Ambreen Bukhari faced numerous challenges and criticism when she dared to enter into the difficult business of collecting, cutting, and exporting precious stones and preparing studded jewelry for the domestic market. Nobody believed she could succeed when she decided to open for business 11 years ago. The precious stone trade was considered a purely male domain, as one is supposed to travel to the mountains, interact with male entrepreneurs to manage the inner and outer workings of the business, and to actively explore for niche markets. Many of her colleagues thought that it would be insulting for men to have a female entrepreneur in their sector, but she has opened her doors and done very well.<br />
Ambreen Bukhari completed her post-graduate studies abroad, specializing in geology, after which she returned to Pakistan with her two daughters to start a stone trading business. She soon found herself in very difficult circumstances. Yet, she took stock in her business and strove to be able to support her children and strengthening her resolve to fight against all odds. Today, she has full floor showroom for her jewelry in a business center in the most famous market of Islamabad. She also arranges exhibitions in Islamabad and Karachi and has participated in international events. She is a leading exporter of precious stones and has represented Pakistan at international forums. She also works as a consultant and imparts training in stone-cutting techniques.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TB0itVTw1AI/AAAAAAAAAHY/0xK7OqgudOA/s1600/menikamines.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="132" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rVx8gSuMllA/TB0itVTw1AI/AAAAAAAAAHY/0xK7OqgudOA/s400/menikamines.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

Good governance acts as a positive force to influence economic growth. A growing amount of available evidence suggests that lack of quality governance hinders growth and investment, and aggravates poverty and inequality. As the matter of fact developing countries are characterized by weak institutions, low growth, poverty and inequality all which translate into low levels of human development. The multiplicative effects of these outcomes result in poverty traps that are extremely difficult to break out.</i><br />
Good governance can lead a country to achieve high and sustained economic growth by establishing conducive environment for saving and investment, risk taking, providing incentives to producers, creating certainty in markets, increasing the size of markets by removing barriers to international trade and improvements in competitiveness. It is a key component in the development factors. The emphasis on reforming economies to achieve high rates of economic growth is largely motivated by the fact that economic growth associates with lower poverty rates and improvements in the quality of life. It is assumed that there is a strong link between economic growth and poverty reduction.<br />
Basically, Governance means process of decision-making and the process by which decisions are implemented. The quality of governance is determined by the impact of this exercise of power on the quality of life enjoyed by the citizens. Governance can be used in several contexts such as international governance, corporate governance, national governance and local governance. Government is one of the actors in governance. Asian Development Bank (1995) identified four basic elements of good governance such as accountability, participation, predictability and transparency.<br />
Political Governance consists of two factors as (i) Voice and accountability. (ii) Political instability and violence. The political governance indicator is intended to capture the process by which government is selected, monitored and replaced. Indicator such as “voice and accountability” measures political, civil, human rights and independence of the media. It includes a number of indicators measuring various aspects of political process, civil liberties and political rights. It measures the extent to which citizens of a country are able to participate in the selection of government while the “political instability” indicator captures whether the government in power will be destabilized or overthrown by possibly unconstitutional or violent means, including military cop, terrorism etc. Pakistan after analyzing on both factors is a politically instable country. <br />
Economic Governance has also two factors as (i) Government effectiveness. (ii) Regulatory quality. These two indicators summarize various indicators that include the government’s capacity to effectively formulate and implement sound policies. The thrust of this is on the input required government to be able to produce or implement good policies and quality delivery of public good. The ‘regulatory quality’ governance indicator includes measures of the incidence of market unfriendly policies such as price control or inadequate bank supervision, as well as the perceptions of the burdens imposed by excessive regulation in area such as foreign trade and business development. Pakistan is also weak on these grounds.<br />
To remedies these solution what Pakistan needs is to develop proper and transparent process of elections so that right leadership can come on up front. Also planning in every exist but poor implementation is ruining image of government all over the country and abroad which require a serious heed to resolve issues like that.<br />

Zardai’s foremost challenge was to be best in restoration of peace and stability in Pakistan. The most critical challenge that Pakistan, under the leadership of Zardari, faces is geographically concentrated in the country’s western border region with Afghanistan, a challenge that maintains both regional and international dynamics.</i></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Since 1947, Pakistan has had hostile relations with both its eastern and western neighbors – India and Afghanistan. Over the past six decades, the mutual relations between these two countries have been held inmate to larger regional and global alignments, pressures and interests. To improve the relationship with Afghanistan the president, Yousaf Raza Gillani, promised to bring “economic, social, and political reforms” to the tribal areas, where illiteracy and poverty have created conditions for terrorism to spread.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">One other big challenge for Pakistan is the rise in sectarian violence between extremist Shiite and Sunni militant factions. The Shiite-Sunni conflict started in Pakistan in the mid-1980’s and has since resulted in an estimated 5,000 deaths. Though the extremists are supported by Saudi Arabia and the Sunni Gulf states on the one hand and revolutionary Shiite Iran on the other, innocent people are the most common victims of the violence unleashed by them.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Despite the centricity of the post-9/11 ‘war on terrorism’ and the current security concerns in the tribal regions bordering Afghanistan, India has always been Pakistan’s main agonize. The 1947 partition of India into two states, Pakistan and India, both solved and created a range of problems from ethno-religious to territorial. Real and tangible peace has yet to be achieved between these two states that have waged three wars over the disputed Himalayan region of Kashmir, and continue to spend considerable portions of their national wealth and political energies on advancing their particular goals over the future of Kashmir.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">The emergence and declaration of a chirpy civil society, the spirit of the business community and the moderation of a very large segment of the Pakistani population are key assets that Pakistan can utilize in establishing a vivacious democracy with stable public and political relations. This may, in turn, provide Pakistan with additional international leverage and add to constructing an environment conducive to negotiated settlements with its neighbors and the international community at large over the variety of issues currently impeding Pakistani development.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In the long-term Pakistan will also have to engage in human development to follow the economic development models of its Asian neighbors to its east. This implies that a larger part of its GDP should be spent on the welfare of its people instead of the financially draining political & military lobby. Most significantly, Pakistani privileged has yet to agree on a unified future vision and work hard to achieve it. Again this implies the active support of the international community, which must recognize that for the sake of international peace, prosperity and stability, Pakistan must be engaged with and not isolated.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1
