Female bombers!


The old definition of Fashion revolved around clothes and colors.

The new definition of fashion is the trend of suicide bombing!

Amazed? Confused? Don’t be!!


When it comes to Pakistan, it is very usual for the people to take the violence and clashes very easily.

Pakistan ka matlab kya? LA ILLAHA ILLALLAH

OR

Pakistan ka matlab kya? TERRORISM, DEATHS, BLOODHSED, or what?


Recently, the Moscow’s subway system was attacked by two female suicide bombers. The attack was done on early Monday morning, resulting in the death of approximately 37 people.

Maybe this news would be relieving for many, since now they are clear that it is not only their country, Pakistan, which is subjected to such terrorism, but even other countries are at risk. Moreover, emphasizing on the underlying fact that it was accomplished by females, it would definitely result in some terror for their male counterparts!

Wedding bells for Bethenny Frankel

The ceremony took place at the Four Seasons Hotel in NYC. Bethenny Frankel is almost eight months pregnant and is pretty unsure or maybe doesn’t prefer revealing her honeymoon plans.

To Karachi with Love!

Terrorism, violence, bloodshed is all what have surrounded our beloved country, Pakistan. It is time to change everything. As an individual, we cannot bring a revolution, but collectively we can definitely accomplish great things. One such step was taken by the D.U.C.K (Designers United for a Cause – Karachi) and Rebuild-Rebound, the Non Profit organizations established by the alumni of the Indus Valley, who brought the visual artists, photographs, paintings and designs together, for a cause.

An event was hence organized at the T2F, from 2nd March 2010 to 17th March 201, entitled as ‘To Karachi with Love’. It was a step to remember the great lives which were lost during the Ashura bombings in Karachi. The fund generated was supposed to be used in the rebuilding of the shops and markets which were destroyed at that time.

It is not IPL..It is KCL!


Karachi Champions League proved successful in providing a platform for the upcoming cricketers for the Pakistan Cricket team. The final match took place between the Airport Gymkhana and the Defence Club on 24th February, 2010, at RLCA (Korangi), a recently inaugurated stadium in the city.

With the efforts of the City Nazim, Mustafa Kamal, the League achieved its target. The winning team, the Airport Gym, was awarded an amount of Rs.10 million and the man of the match title was given to the most deserving player, Mr. Khalid Latif, of the Airport Gym. He was successful in making a century in just 56 balls, helping his team win the award.

Interestingly, one of his sixes damaged the windscreen of a white corolla parked on the road, which gathered a huge crowd. At that occasion, the commentator proudly said, ’’ this is what happens when you park your car in the wrong lane, ’’ making me wonder as to what would be his reaction if he would have found that it was his car which was damaged or ’’injured’’ as said in the common cricket terminology!

It's all about us...CRICKET!

SPORTS= Leadership, competition, victory, unity and the team spirit


PAKISTAN’S CRICKET TEAM= Accusations, match fixing, ball tampering, Captaincy problems and injuries

When people unite under the same flag of one country, they are supposed to be the epitome of true citizens and perfect cricketers. But how often have we experienced such an ideal situation?

ANSWER: Very rare!

Previously it was Asif and Shoaib Akhtar who were in the limelight, today it is Shoaib Malik and Yousuf who are fighting over the captaincy issue, Akmal’s media appearance without permission, Afridi’s incident of ball tampering and the clashes between the senior and the young players. These are among the few top happenings which are associated with Pakistan’s cricket team today.

RESULT: Defeat!

We lost against the Australians, we missed around 30 catches, our players are constantly being fined and the top positions are resigning- is this what we expect from our team?

ANSWER: Wait for the upcoming PAKISTAN versus ENGLAND cricket series!
