The £140,000 Bentley Continental GT has a top speed of 194mph with optional extras costing up to £22,630; it is one of the most luxurious cars in the world. There are few teenagers who can afford a car of that calibre. With most teens scouring comparison sites like MoneySupermarket for the cheapest car insurance, money can’t have been an option for the learner driver, or his parents.

In Britain the car insurance debate has been raging on, with headlines dominated by extortionate insurance claims and the enormous prices that young drivers have to pay for insurance. This debate has only been exacerbated by recent rulings by the European Parliament, who ruled that it was illegal to vary insurance costs in relation to sex. Young drivers in the United Kingdom are now paying more than their car is worth in payments. A fact which can only allude to the cost of this young driver’s insurance. There may be many more young people paying over the odd for their insurance, but one thing is for sure, this young driver must be paying through the nose for his insurance.

If you are looking for some happening events all over the globe then you can go for Sydney Festival of Summer where you can enjoy some music, dance, visual arts and even theater. The festival attracts millions of people from all over the globe and therefore you can make the most of the time you have. If you are really passionate about music and dance then you can enjoy some great evenings here with your friends and family members and move your body to some of the international artists.

The festival this year will bring in some international performers from different parts of the world like superstar Manu Chao who will play Latin reggae for the audiences. Apart from that Australian singer-songwriter Meagan Washington will also bring her music to the stage. There are other performances happening by The Jolly Boy and Gurrumul as well. There will be some street performances as well by Tuba Skinny, Norman J and Lewis Floyd Henry. You can also check out some cabaret performances by Meow Meow and move to the groovy beats. The festival combines some great performers from Papua New Guinea and New Zealand as well that will entertain people.

It is not okay when you see this, trust me this beach is not like others that give you pleasures of water and fun at the seaside only, this is as good and colorful as it looks in the images below. And it normally said that it was actually one man’s mistake that made this happen over the time.

It was started from 20th century from Fort Bragg residents who used to throw the garbage and other wasted household items from the cliff towards the beach which is now called ‘the glass beach’. This is hard to believe that this is happening today, there was a time when people used to dump all types of junk materials into the ocean even cars, which also have glass.

In the beginning of 1949, it became a usual dumping area where neighboring people used to dump their waste, it even made piles of it, there on, burning it all, was the solution to reduce the mess on the beach. Later on in 1967, the government officials sealed the area and closed for entrance. However, in the following decades the strong waves clear the beach by taking all the dumped junk into the oceans bed and by bringing small and smooth sprinkling glass pieces that has covered the beach today.
This is how it looks like. Is it true or not, nobody is too sure about this story today, but it is however it’s done. If you know the whole story or some other information, do share with me.

Brain is supposed to be the centralized controlling organ in human body. It can be compared to a microprocessor in a computer. It has the ability and responsibility to control all the voluntary as well as involuntary actions of the body. It has various control modes like electrical and muscular impulses or chemical secretions like hormones etc.

Majorly the strength of brain is determined by the way it responds to queries, memory capabilities including retrieval, functioning of various activities, balance, timing, accuracy, learning and analysis skills etc.

Brain too like an automobile gets spoilt when not used. Push the limits of your capacity; do multitasking, develop ambidexterity, solve puzzles, riddles and inculcate logical approach to accomplish things.

Practice the habit of analyzing things, calculating your bills in your mind rather than a calculator, and try to solve simple things with reason and logic. For example: you have 2 routes to reach your office; calculate distances approximately, the traffic scenarios prevalent, number of turns and traffic signals you encounter and your average car speed to analyze which route is better. That’s not all; develop your own criteria and priorities in determining solutions to problems.
Try to think beyond the ordinary. If you have some waste materials to throw, wait for a moment and look at all the items to view something creative, innovative and unique. Defy the rules of the world – allow your brain to think without constraints.
Your physical habits and practices too play a major role in the quality of brain functioning. Ensure good supply of sufficient fresh air to your body everyday. Oxygen supply through blood can pump up the energy levels among the neurons (nervous cells). Practice Yoga, aerobics or simple regular fitness exercises to not only keep your mind fit but also to keep your whole body fit.

Meditation is one of the best and easiest methods of improving brain power substantially. It helps improve your concentration powers, speed and accuracy in doing things.

Eat healthy! Eat lot of fruits, vegetables, berries, green leafy food in their natural form. Food rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals like grains, legumes, egg, milk, fish are all excellent to keep your bodily systems in tact including nervous system. Avoid oily and fat rich food as they tend to make us lazier and reduce our interests in those activities which require mind power.

Quit disgusting and harmful habits like using tobacco in smoking or any other form. You might only feel that smoking improves concentration, but actually it’s only channelizing your energy on a very temporary basis and on a longer run destroys your natural brain power.

MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) has developed a new camera that has opened new perspective of technology and photography. This brings an unimaginable speed that can actually see the photons moving in space. Its real as it gets!

It can capture the packets of lights and photons movements. This camera can now help in the field of medical, photography, understanding the natural behaviors changing around the day and night.
“With our ultrafast imaging, we can actually analyze how the photons are traveling through the world. And then we can recreate a new photo by creating the illusion that the photons started somewhere else,” said by Ramesh Raskar
It is as expensive as it sounds the weight of this device. This mega fast camera is using real titanium sapphire laser and a streak camera for high speed. It uses development resources for about $250’000. It is using 500 sensors which of each is triggered to capture light at 1 trillion frames every second.
MIT Media Lab postdoctoral associate Andreas Velten said “Because we can see those photons, we could use them to look inside objects–for example, for medical imaging, or to identify materials,”

A sport is no doubt a competition involving both physical and mental strengths. Great sportsmen have pushed their limits beyond the ordinary and have created places of their own in the history books. It takes great mental make up, perseverance, determination, audacity and a certain level of emotions which have made truly made them what they are.

Muhammad Ali

‘Cassius Mercellus Clay’ who converted to Islam faith and changed his name to what everyone knows today – Muhammad Ali. A US citizen by birth, Ali went on to become one of the greatest boxers mankind ever saw. He is also a philanthropist and works for social causes.
If this was all about Ali, his name wouldn’t have been in this list. Ali has three times won the lineal championship, and this milestone has not been surpassed by any boxer in the history. A lineal championship is one where a boxer defies the reigning world champion by defeating him in the ring. Ali is also known for his ultimate sportsmanship and warrior like qualities, strength, passion, confidence and is aptly nicknamed ‘The Greatest’!

Michael Jeffrey Jordan

Nicknamed ‘Air Jordan’ is undoubtedly the greatest basketball player in the league. His unique ability to frisk and his invention of new moves, passes and tricks has earned him the trust of the crowd, who were never got enough of his ‘Slam Dunks’.
His awards and glories are a never ending list. With numerous MVP, NBA and ‘scoring’ and ‘steals’ title, Jordan surprisingly was interested in baseball too! He quit his basketball career twice at his career peak only to rejoin again with his home team – Chicago Bulls to show the world that is truly an undisputed master.

Pele

Pele is the nickname of Edson Arantes Do Nascimento who is known for his magic on a football field. It goes without saying that so far, soccer world hasn’t seen a more vibrant, charismatic, talented and a gifted footballer who is even close to Pele; let alone surpassing him!
He was the youngest footballer to score a goal in international debut in 1957 when he was less than 17! This Brazilian footballer was named ‘The footballer of the century’ in 1999. Pele has scored over a thousand goals in his entire career spanning nearly 2 decades. Popularizing football and compassionate work for the poor and social causes are his personal identities.

Mildred Ella Babe Zaharias

It need not be always men, proved Zaharias. She was most successful in whatever she endeavored. Her expertise in basketball in early 1930s did not stop her from venturing into 1932 Amateur championship Olympics, in Javelin throw, hurdles and 3 other events to set world records and won eight out of ten events she participated.
She couldn’t stop here either; she next went on to become the most successful women golfer who has won Women’s amateur title 17 times along with countless professional titles and won a total of 82 tournaments in just a career spanning over just a decade!

The word travel comes along with few other related words like beaches and resorts. Who would not like to hang out with friends and family in those long exotic beach tracks, have a boat house in the backwaters, stay in a beach resort and enjoy the mesmerizing color contrast of the nature? While the splendid blue sky makes you stay away from the tensions of your daily life, the vast crystal clear tracts of the sea shore sand makes your heart dance with joy, the mighty deep blue ocean makes you feel a little more modest. Here is the list of few of the top beach resorts of the world, where you can discover yourself while enjoying the vacations.

Europe is known for its scenic beach beauty and exotic resorts. Elounda in the beaches of Crete exhibits the splendid Greek hospitality. It is surrounded by green lush forests and breathtaking oceanic blue. Very secluded but with luxurious amenities and service, this is one of the top beach resorts pick.

The interior architecture is down to earth but exotic in its own way. It’s a multi storey white building which contrasts the green hills behind. Scuba divingand surfing in this amazing island are the main attraction.

Bucuti Beach resort in the beaches of Aruba is just a quiet hotel in its own style. Just perfect for you and your friends to hang out with peace and tranquility.

Heron resort in Australia is located on this Great Barrier Reef and has a coast where visitors can swim their way to the reef. Scuba diving, Snorkeling and sailing facilities are offered too. With plenty of options in suites and rooms selection, it is one of the most preferred destinations in Australia.

Indonesia’s Bali Island has equally good resorts like the Intercontinental Bali resort. Located in the Jimbaran Beach, the resort even takes care of the pick up and drop services for its guests. Sea food in this country is the highlight. Apart from the breath taking beauty of this Asian island country, the hospitality is often praised.

The homes and villas in the only resort of the island – Golden Buddha resorts, are extremely down to earth and guests can learn Yoga and Kayaking savoring along with the luxurious spas, pools and other classy amenities. The interiors are so self sufficient, cozy and warm, you would hardly wish to exit.

Seychelles in the western most borders of African continent is an apt choice for a superb equatorial vacation spot. Banyan Tree star resorts in the Mahe islands bordering Indian Ocean is the best spot for a honeymoon trip. With unbelievable hospitality in the spas and gardens, this resort is undoubtedly one of the best in the world.

If not, now is the chance you can do so. In Denmark, a creatively known artist Olafur Eliasson designed a 360 degree (circular) Glass Rooftop called ‘Your Rainbow Panorama’. It is made of glass entirely that is at the top of Aros Art Museum in Aarhus, Denmark. It gives several view of the city while travelling through it; it is a very unique in its structure and nature. Its dimensions are 150 meters long, 3 meters high and 3 meter wide.
“Your rainbow panorama enters into a dialogue with the existing architecture and reinforces what is assured beforehand, that is to say the view of the city. I have created a space which virtually erases the boundaries between inside and outside – where people become a little uncertain as to whether they have stepped into a work or into part of the museum. This uncertainty is important to me, as it encourages people to think and sense beyond the limits within which they are accustomed to moving,” says the artist.

An Overview

Pakistan’s economy is draining fast while the whole system seems near collapse. This situation can revive in some time but only when revamp efforts are initiated and seen in reality, instead of meaningless chit chat and speeches. The cost graph of utilities and commodities of daily use will soon touch the K-2 Peak, tumbling down the users. The jobless idlers are seen in huge numbers and public unrest and demonstrations are a daily affair. The crime rate has increased considerably. The white-collared middle classes are the most hard pressed.

The Basic Dilemma

The presence of the Government is seen nowhere near the needy people, although the representatives boost of doing everything in media talks and speeches. Politicians in power are not reducing their luxuries practically, even in these hard times. They have forgotten that next elections are just one year away and the voter will count progress and seek answers. Maybe those in power do not wish to remain in power for the next term and prefer to consolidate their “earnings” out of Pakistan.

Nature has bestowed unlimited resources on Pakistan. Our politicians have wasted 50 years debating on Do’s and Don’ts, lack of aptitude and mutual trust. Now the opportunists are selling the assets and resources for peanuts, through unclear “deals”, to foreigners. Can anyone imagine a fate worse than this and circumstances more suicidal than today. The few nationalists left are being shuffled here and there to avoid their hindrance or are punished and degraded for their positive thinking.

The Great Lost Spirits – Needs to be Alive Again!

Looking back at the early days after Independence in 1947, Pakistan’s economy was zero. The public morale was high even after suffering unlimited transit hardships, killings and depriving of possessions. The Indian Govt. held back most of divided assets too. The brave people put their heads down and started producing and growing, using limited resources that they had. The nominal industrial units left behind were made operational. The economy wheel worked 24 hours to coupe the demand.

The Government machinery was also active round the clock with dedication, dividing the available resources for local industry and farm produce. Import substitution and exports were encouraged. Special bonus licenses were issued for raw materials for export products. Incentives and easy loans motivated all sectors.

The Great Quaid-e-Azam Muhammed Ali Jinnah

Photo by wikipedia

Became the first Governor General of Pakistan. His Moto “Unity, Faith and Discipline” kindled the progress lamp. He was well-off and drew only Rs. 1/- Salary, while paying all his travelling and other expenses himself. The energizing speeches of this ideal leader raised public emotions to achieve more in less time. Soon the unemployment reduced considerably and the economy became sustainable. This progress foiled Indian plans to see Pakistan fail and reunite, begging.

Quaid-e-Azam Muhammed Ali Jinnah

died on 11th September 1948 and Liaquat Ali Khan took over. He steadfastly continued his policies. The World opinion on Pakistan’s stability soon changed and handsome foreign loans and aid packages were offered that speeded up production and enhanced confidence.

Pakistan’s economy took strides and nearly achieved self-sufficiency during General M. Ayub Khan’s tenure (1957-68) that is still remembered as a benchmark golden period of 10 year’s progress.

In 1965 India attacked to weaken and disturb Pakistan’s progress, but failed to shake public confidence. Many Heroes emerged. It is remembered that old F-86 Sabre fighters won the war. The heroic deed of Pilot, M. M. Alam is still fresh. He shot down five Indian Gnat fighters in one dog-fight encounter over Lahore air space, with the public shouting anti-India slogans from roof tops, unafraid of stray bullets.

Our Singing Legends;

Sir Mehdi Hassan and Madam Noor Jahan, alongwith others sang National themes that raised the heart beat and public valor. The emotions were so profound and convincing, that the Indians started their retreat. Our Air Force Chiefs Air Marshal Asghar Khan and Air Marshal Noor Khan did not sit back and themselves flew F104 Fighters under taking dangerous missions into India and destroyed their hidden radar targets that the other pilots missed. Some deeds remain unmatched.

Pure sincere and selfless dedication of super scientist, Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan and his team, could lead him to achieve the impossible target of developing the Atomic Power – A deterrent holding India within its borders.
Notes for publisher: good pictures of Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan and Atomic bomb here

Bold Acts -

General Zia-ul-Haq stabilized Pakistan’s economy and Government’s overall performance. He proved a far better Politician than most. His tactical policies forced Russia to leave Afghanistan. His “Cricket diplomacy” became well-known throughout the World.

The above historical facts confirm that the attitude and genuine progressive approach of the Top Brass matter in strengthening or wasting a country’s economy. Pakistani people have seen the positive SELFLESS dedication and are now experiencing the negative SELFISH angles of the top management and party politics in its extreme form.
What WE Still OWN!!!

The present scenario highlights that Billions of Dollars worth of installed industrial capacity is being wasted due to high input costs and utilities which is causing huge joblessness. We are not grateful to nature for giving us almost four crop seasons in a year as we are availing less than 25% of this benefit only to accommodate corrupt commission mafia that thrives on imports. Our massive export capacity is reducing due to high input costs. Tourism is being ignored. Pakistan has uncountable tourist resorts. The glamorous northern mountain areas could attract thousands of sight-seeing enthusiasts. The beautiful valleys that lie between 5 out of 14 highest peaks above 8000 meters in the Karakoram, Himalayan and Hindukush ranges, and are part of Pakistan.

Pakistan has a strong history of promoting world peace under the United Nations Flag. Our forces were deployed often for peace missions worldwide. The peaceful Pakistani nature has been maligned to suit the need of the day. The opportunist powers have confused us with terrorism. The true fact is that after the Russia – Afghan war, the local Afghan tribes suddenly became jobless and started causing problems for the Afghan Government. These ignored elements were redirected, termed terrorists, reemployed and financed to disturb the peace of the adjoining countries. Pakistan being the strongest among the Muslims Countries, has been made the worst hit and targeted frontline state facing both, the extreme terrorist activity and the blame too.

The terrorists are often stated to be “Al-Qaida” men. This is a very wide unclear term or name and no one tells where it exists in reality? But all the mischief created by other known stubborn and expansionist nations are easily linked to it to hide their own identity and alterior motives for pressurizing weaker countries and taking political and economic advantages. Above all, to continue the blame game as it suits them.

The Beautiful Pakistan, see it through its beauty

Author’s further inputs:

The true intentions are ‘doing isn’t enough, doing right is what matters most’

It is our deep understanding and observation that chit chat done so far is enough. Now it’s time to move on to do something real positive to bring some CHANGE! The existing politicians do know what to do to make things right, only if they intend to.

The Emerging True Leader, after so many years! Some more may Follow Soon.

Since, our existing leaders are not following the right cause, so let’s see who should possibly be the next Prime Minister. Our votes are with Imran Khan, Leading Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf.

Why? He is a topper and career marked with excellence. Winning World Cup in 1992 wasn’t by luck only. His high aims and ambition generated great spirits in him that encouraged and extremely motivated the team he was leading. Later on, he made another big contribution to society by setting up Shaukat Khanam Hospital and Memorial Trust, where thousands of Cancer patients are benefiting for treatment for free of cost. The public listens to him. When he was combing streets throughout Pakistan for hospital contributions, the people could not refuse him. The men emptied their purses and the ladies, without cash, gave the jewelry they were wearing. One’s honesty of purpose cannot be acclaimed in a better way.

We still have this National hero with us, without any criminal and corruption records and he seems to have taken this initiative only to fill the honesty gap in true sense, and to save this drowning ship. He is not Greedy, Short-cut lover, Low term planner and is bold enough to take this country to new heights which can run on its own and to brings peace and happiness to the people.

In our next article of the same genre, we are listing the heroes from all fields as ‘The Best of the Bests of Pakistan!’
