Afghan parliamentary election, 2010

Afghan parliamentary election 2010 were held on the 18th of September 2010...to elect the house of people known as wolesi jirga the lower house just like the house of representatives in the US to act as a law making body just lower to the house of elders which is more like the senate in the US....so it is more or less the same the only thing different is that in the absence of established parliamentary norms and precedents and also due to lack of infrastructure the election process is very corrupt and lacks transparency ....the results of the 18th September elections could take weeks maybe a month...

Does Smartphones and Android users require Wi-Fi....?

The race has begun between the two main mobile service providers in Pakistan to provide their customers the best ,fastest and above all the cheapest mobile internet service.It is interesting to know that at the rate of Rs 10/- and Rs 5/- only per day you can browse unlimited all day (60min).In $ terms this is so cheap that even I can use my smartphone to use the internet daily which is actually quite an achievement for a lot of players in this technology and internet industry.
So the question in my mind is how bad it is for the Wi-fi enabled smartphones and the wi-fi service providers ...

Sabki laadli Bebo...shows legs...




In the last 397 episodes ,I don't really know how many years that makes...,of Starplus's mega serial "Sabki laadli Bebo"...I don't recall ever seeing Bebo (shivshakti sachdev) in anything but the pure indian/punjabi dress of a knee length shirt with a very tight tang pajama(pants) and a dupatta...do you...no I don't think so....its not just her character but her evil twin Rano.. who tried to take her place in the previous episodes was also forced to dress just like her.....Since its a story of a simple sardar family of Amritsar ...I believe I have not even seen Bebo in an indian sari as well....very short sleeves and body hugging shirts is the most she has done so far....for 397....episodes...unbelieveble..!  



Recently I have noticed that since starplus has been banned by Pakistan ....most of the lead female characters in more popular serials are trying to look different...trying to change their getups and wordrobes to the western wear which the actors usually wear and prefer to be seen in their ordinary off starplus screen lives....the only reason that I could think of for this sudden change in  dressing is that they know that their fans in Pakistan can now only watch the serials on the net....
