SIMULATION
IS REALITY REALLY REAl OR NOT?:
BY:MAJID HUSSAIN
As the mankind wakes up to its daily routine going about its chores and work and the world sets in motion the daily routine to all of us feels like a loop of activities running over again and again and going back and fort like a pendulum’s motions, yet the most distinctive attribute of mankind forces it to ponder over the existence of mankind itself . the continued progress of scientific innovation and theories made mankind wonder the nature of universe and the status of mankind in it ,the roles, the location, the position in the universe and most important ”how we got here” . from earlier times mythology became the source of this knowledge giving its theories about how universe was created by deities out of chaos but these theories remind unable to satisfy mankind ,although these theories were discarded with the advent of science and only one concept:
“The Big B ang”
Became dominant and remind the foundation of mankind’s views about its inception but, the scientist began to imagine a third possibilities about the realities of things and their nature that is that we the “humans” might just be holograms in the larger system of a simulations controlled by a super species to whom we humans might just object provided with the abilities of artificial intelligence and information processing or we might just be a research experiment to them just like robots are to us . while making such argument one has calculate the capability and the capacity of human being and of the above mentioned higher being it may seem unrealistic to some but it’s quit clear that such a possibility can exist in our reality since human mind is capable of stating that there might be other like us or better more powerful and also inferior to us in this vast universe of ours? but the questions arise that in the countless numbers of our written history in the forms of millenniums why hadn’t we contacted them or why isn’t there any mention of them in our ancient texts and books? Well the logical answer would be that they might not obey the same laws of physics and nature as we door they would just be of different shape and sizes and made of different material then us such type of description are present in many historical books spread all over the various region of the world. the second argument being is that they might be more developed in terms of civilization and technology that they might have visited and created us so that the we may became some sort of software testing project for them to extract vital result and to learn something from us as we human represent the wide embodiment of emotions such as rage , love, happiness, sadness etc as well as the intellectual capacity to build gigantic structures and scientific innovation with the combination of above mentioned qualities the human have successfully learned to prosper in an environment once a human could hardly survive such advancement has not been seen by any other being on the planet . the humans have learned to successfully harness the energy of the planet and reached the level that they are near to becoming a multi planet species . the scientist “nilolai kardeshev” has given a way to differentiate ourselves from higher being as we mentioned above on the basis of their ability to harness, store and affectively use the energy of their planet, sun,solar system, galaxy and local group it is divided into four categories:
TYPE1 TYPE2 TYPE 3 TYPE4 TYPE5
TYPE1:is able to use the energy of their palent.TYPE2: is able to use the energy of their star and solar system.TYPE3:is able to use the energy of their galaxy.TYPE4:is able to use energy of multiple galaxy.
All of these comparison differ by level of magnitude to ants we are as are as different, powerful and complex that we might be supreme to them. further the comparison is divided into sub category from o.1 to 1 representing development from hunter gatherer to the stage at which humans are today and what we might achieve in few hundred years. For the reasons stated above it is save to say we are somewhere between 1.7 to 1.9 we have dug out the fossil fuels and are shifting to renewables and also to space hence if we are able to make it here then civilization as competitive as us might have also made it here and supreme being s would be so developed almost to point of 4.0 that that they may have created us for there own reasons .
Well the reason of our creation or is there something specie ahead of the developments of humans or not is still unclear or that whether we are real or not , one can say that whether we will find out or not we should still ponder of over this question because it is the only question that will let us explore our boundries and take us to our maximum potential were destined to explore our surrounding and to see the vastness of our universe .
WATER PROBLEMS, WATER CRISES, WATER SHORTAGE IN PAKISTAN.
Introduction
As we as a whole realize that our Earth surface is covered by water that is 66%. Presently a day our nation Pakistan is confronting extreme deficiency of water because of some Natural reasons and Miss Management. Water assets are possessed by Government and are overseen as freely claimed assets. 93% of water is required as agribusiness source in Pakistan though 2% of water is utilized in Industries and 5 % utilized as a homegrown reason. In Sindh under 30% of groundwater is new. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa expanding deliberation has brought about wells presently coming to saline layers. The evaporating of wells, decreased stream, exhaustion, and saltish ground water is the fundamental explanation of water emergencies. Ground water in the sub bowl of Quetta would be depleted by 2016 because of the evaporating of wells. In Islamabad the drop has been 50 feet somewhere in the range of 1986 and 2001.In Lahore the drop has been around 23 feet somewhere in the range of 1993 and 2001.Although Punjab has the best provincial water supply in Pakistan. By far most of the country populace has either funneled water from hand siphon or engine siphon. Just 7% of country populace relies upon a burrowed well or a waterway, channel or stream.
SOURCES OF WATER/RESERVOIRS
1. Indus Basin River
2.Makran Coastal Basin.
3.Ground Water.
4.Tarbela Dam.
5.Mangla Dam
6.Chashma Barrage.
Utilization of water are:
Irrigation, Power generation, Drinking and Industries.
The Main reasons of Water crises: Is drought which is beyond the control of man or in the years when the rainfall is not normal or below from the normal state, the country generally faces the water shortage.
CAUSES OF WATER CRISES:
1. Domestic wastage of water.
2.less plumbing system.
3.Shortage of rainfall.
4.Seepage from stream,river,pipelines etc.
5.Due to deforestation.
6.Due to Climate change.
7.The us e of water in bad way like the uses of water in service station.
MISMANAGEMENT: The normal in progression of the Indus and its feeders is 141.67 Maf of which 97% is utilized in agribusiness and 3% is for homegrown and Industrial purposes. Out of 141.67 Maf, around 106 Maf is every year redirected in to one of the biggest however in proficient water system framework. The leftover 36 Maf goes into the ocean unused - all out misfortune. Out of 106 Maf redirected into a broad water system network over half is lost during the changing and the field application before it arrives at the yield root zone.
Effect ON ECONOMY: less water implies less horticultural yields and to satisfy the food prerequisites of the country, we will reliant on different nations. Less farming yields will force to head towards metropolitan territories for occupations, which will expand the joblessness further.
Deficiency OF ELECTRICITY:
Burden shedding is one of the greatest or significant issues of Pakistan. Because of the low degree of water in dams the dam can't create adequate measure of power.
HOW Might WE REDUCE THE WATER CRISES OF WATER?
Water emergencies mean the panic of water. It implies the measure of water is not exactly the prerequisite. The panic of water is because of the wastages of water, the use of water bad. Pakistan is at number 17 on the rundown of nations that are confronting water emergencies.
Compelling MANAGEMENT:
The powerful advancement relies on;
. Improvement strategies be set up by the state
. Monetary casing work thinking about the horticulture as industry.
. Accessibility water assets and compelling collecting strategies for overflow
. Insights of yearly water spending will help in successful arranging of water assets.
. Wrinkle as strategy for development and stream as technique for water system be executed emotionally.
In this construction of following dams should be started immediately
1.Chasha dam.
2.Kala Bagh dam.
3.Raised Mangla dam.
4. Mirani dam.
5. Gomalzam dam.
Solutions of Water crises, Water shortage are:
Individuals should be taught to save water by participation Moreover, government should make laws of water preservation like, numerous western nations. Endeavors are made to change over the current turn based water system framework to request situated framework.
CONCLUSION:
The issues looked by the water area in the nation are many, intense and genuine and it is likewise realized that we can produce around 83 Maf of more water. Along these lines, working of more supplies and a powerful administration methodology are the requirements of time. Likewise, usage of the suggestions will empower the nation to address the difficulties and accomplish the targets of incorporated, productive, ecologically, monetarily supportable turn of events and the executives of restricted water assets. Simultaneously, it will empower us to understand each drop of our water for our brilliant future.
WEARING POWERFUL WEAPON IS EVERYONE’S BASIC RIGHT
Education is the road to national development. On the basis of education people not only aware about their duties but also they aware about what is wrong or right. One of the goals of education is to enable the people by developing their general consciousness regarding their national and international position as global citizens .Pakistan is a developing country, and only that nation goes towards development that has powerful weapons which is education. Education is the key towards success; every nation develops its generation on the basis of robust training and education on different grounds like social, economical and ideological .Now the thing is it should be everyone’s aim that their child only get quality education and they will do encourage their child to move forward to development. The investment in education pays the best interest to the nations, and a powerful passport to individuals’ future. Quality education does not lie between poor and rich, it is actually every single individual’s basic right. When we talk about quality education we come up to different facts. Now the question arises - how to make sure that every child is getting quality education and how it can be promoted for lifelong learning? This is indeed every institute, every teacher, and every mentor’s responsibility to ensure to be providing quality knowledge to students.
GOALS OF EDUCATION IN PAKISTAN:
The goals of Pakistan regarding education are mentioned here;
. It was decided in the very first national education conference 1974 held at Karachi that the education system would work according to the national aspirations of Pakistan and would be only those people highly encourage who are needy and poor who can’t afford that expensive education stuff. The father of the nation Quiad-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah has delivered in his conference that education system of Pakistan was to develop national character of Pakistani generation. The national character would contain very high sense of responsibility.
To promote quality education many institutions and committees were made. Because of this the quality of education in the country has suffered badly instead of making progress. Another major problem which has affected negatively the system is the widening gaps and distance between the educational institutions and community. Parental involvement is necessary for ensuring the quality education.
CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE PROBLEMS OF EDUCATION:
Negative factors create concerns which are mentioned-below:
● Decimation in schools
It occurs when people are treated unfairly. Powerful ones try to control the powerless for their so-called future benefits. And, those who do not follow them are incredibly discriminated against that leads to suicidal thoughts at extreme level. It should immediately be removed from schools.
· Education without instructions:
A sound education system is essential for every nation of the world. The education system of Pakistan is much affected due to improper guidance; due to weak instructions no one can polish their skills and this become resulting a great and horror issue like unemployment. Low basis private sectors do hire that young teachers who has just passed their secondary levels. And basically those things destroy purpose of quality education.
● Putting too much in one plate :
Institutes must ensure not to pressurize children to learn many languages. For example, Pakistan’s mother tongue is Urdu whereas people speak different languages such as Sindhi, Punjabi, Pastun, and so forth. Majority is Muslim so Arabic language is mandatory to be taught in schools as well. Additionally, I have mentioned above that English is an educational language over here. Therefore, It is necessary for a student to learn these all languages which means putting too much in one’s brain at the same time. It must be removed, and one language to be followed for all subjects.
· Lack of quality teachers:
Teacher is the backbone of education organizations. Majority of teachers do not know about lesson planning and how to cover them out and deliver that. Teachers don’t use new strategies and methods to enhance child’s level of understanding, they only rely on that old methods.
· Accessibility:
There are a lot of people who can’t afford quality education. Hence, policy makers must come up with something which provides accessibility to each. Organizations should extend their knowledge at a broader level.
Conclusion:
Through this paper it is clear that only those nations are developed and successful who have quality education. It is everyone’s basic right to attain this. Every institution and government should follow the education policies. . Pakistan has already been doing a good job at providing quality education. It may take time to remove completely negative factors. Anyhow, Malala Yousuf is one of the great examples from Pakistan.

Donald Trump left letter for Joe Biden before departing White House - spokesman - IOL
In line with tradition, Donald Trump left a letter to his successor Joe Biden before leaving the White House, spokesman Judd Deere told AFP minutes after the outgoing president's departure.
Washington, United States - Donald Trump left a letter to his successor Joe Biden before leaving the White House, spokesman Judd Deere told AFP minutes after the outgoing president's departure. Trump, who refused to accept his defeat for more than two months, never congratulated Biden on his victory. "We are just temporary occupants of this office," Barack Obama wrote in his own note to Trump four years ago, left in the Oval Office in line with presidential tradition. "That makes us guardians of those democratic institutions and traditions... that our forebears fought and bled for. Regardless of the push and pull of daily politics, it's up to us to leave those instruments of our democracy at least as strong as we found them," he added. The letter touted as one of the classiest left by a president was written by Republican George H.W. Bush to Bill Clinton, who had made Bush a one-term president after defeating him in the 1992 election. The letter, which Bush left as he departed the White House in 1993, recalled his "sense of wonder and respect" as he walked in to the Oval Office four years earlier."There will be very tough times ... just don't let the critics discourage you or push you off course," Bush wrote."You will be our president when you read this note. I wish you well. I wish your family well. Your success now is our country's success. I am rooting hard for you. Good luck," he told his opponent.
Mobile labs take vaccine studies to diverse neighborhoods - Medical Xpress

(AP Photo/Seth Wenig) Lani Muller doesn't have to visit a doctor's office to help test an experimental COVID-19 vaccineshe just climbs into a bloodmobile-like van that parks on a busy street near her New York City neighborhood. The U.S. is rightly fixated on the chaotic rollout of the first two authorized vaccines to fight the pandemic. But with more vaccines in the pipelinecritical to boosting global suppliesscientists worry whether enough volunteers will join and stick with the testing needed to prove if they, too, really work. Those studies, like earlier ones, must include communities of color that have been hard-hit by the pandemic, communities that also voice concern about the vaccination drive in part because of a long history of racial health care disparities and even research abuses. To help, researchers in more than a dozen spots around the country are rolling out mobile health clinics to better reach minority participants and people in rural areas who might not otherwise volunteer. Muller, who is Black, said her family was worried about the vaccine research so she didn't mention she'd signed up to test AstraZeneca's shot. "The legacy of African Americans in science in these sort of trials hasn't been great and we haven't forgotten," said Muller, 49, a Columbia University employee whose participation in some prior research projects made her willing to get a test injection earlier this month. Muller knows more than 20 people who have gotten or died from COVID-19. "I'm much more afraid of the disease than the vaccine trial," she said. From the beginning, the National Institutes of Health was adamant that COVID-19 vaccines be tested in a population about as diverse as the nation'skey to building confidence in whichever shots proved to work. In studies of the Pfizer and Moderna shots so far cleared for widespread U.S. use, 10% of volunteers were Black, and more were Hispanic. Diversity is an even tougher challenge now. The high-risk volunteers needed for final testing of other vaccine candidates have to decide if they want to stick with an experimental injectionone that might be a dummy shotor try to get in line for a rationed but proven dose. AstraZeneca, with about 30,000 volunteers so far, didn't release specific numbers but said the last weeks of enrollment are focusing on recruiting more minorities and people over age 65. Another maker, Novavax, just began recruiting for its final testing last month.

(AP Photo/Seth Wenig) Studying the vaccines in diverse populations is only one step in building trust, said Dr. Wayne Frederick, president of Howard University, a historically Black university in the nation's capital. Howard's hospital shared video of Frederick and other health workers getting vaccinated as a public service announcement encouraging African Americans to get their own shot as soon as it's their turn. Frederick, a surgeon who's also at high risk because of diabetes and sickle cell disease, said he's dismayed to get emails espousing conspiracy theories such as that vaccination is "an experiment on African Americans." "There is misinformation that does require all of us to be in the forefront of getting involved and challenging it," he said. But efforts to build confidence in the vaccines could be undermined if, once there's more supply to go around, hard-hit minority communities get left behind. "The equity issue is absolutely important," said Stephaun Wallace, a scientist at the Fred Hutchison Cancer Research Center who also is part of the NIH-created COVID-19 Prevention Network that helps with vaccine research and education. "It's important that we ensure that the vaccine is getting to the people, and that is an access issue." Using vans to reach at-risk communities has long been a staple of fighting HIV, another illness that has disproportionately struck Black Americans. And as more doses of the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines arrive, mobile clinics are expected to help expand COVID-19 vaccination access, especially in rural areas. But the NIH program has a different focus, offering RV-sized mobile clinics from Matrix Medical Network to help improve the diversity of ongoing vaccine studies. Officials say they've been used at a Lakota reservation, at chicken-processing plants with a largely Hispanic workforce, and in cities like Washington where Howard University is recruiting volunteers for the new Novavax study.

(AP Photo/Seth Wenig) "I don't think we can sit in the ivory towers and hope that people come to us. I think that would be a mistake," said Howard's Frederick. Researchers from the New York Blood Center regularly park their lab-on-wheels in parts of Queens and Brooklyn with large Black, Asian and Hispanic populations, so that even after study enrollment ends the participants can pop in for required check-ups. They also make a point of standing outside to answer questions from passersby confused about COVID-19 vaccination in general. It's "building trust and rapport," said Dr. Jorge Soler, who helps study the AstraZeneca vaccine as part of the blood center's Project Achieve. "I'm Latino and I'm a scientist. To be able to say that to people means something." Soler sometimes has to dispel fears that getting vaccinated might mean being "injected with a chip," or having information collected for surveillance purposes.

Read next on IOL Tropical storm Eloise to miss the Western Cape - IOL
The Western Cape will largely be unaffected by the tropical storm, Eloise, anticipated to hit some parts of the country.
By Shakirah Thebus7h ago Cape Town - The Western Cape will largely be unaffected by Tropical Storm Eloise, anticipated to hit some parts of the country. This after several parts of the country received severe weather warnings and were told to remain on high alert and expect heavy rainfall over the coming days. The Cape Town Weather Office said the storm would predominantly affect the eastern parts of Limpopo and Mpumalanga as well as the northern parts of KwaZulu-Natal on Sunday and Monday. The office said this would not affect the Western Cape at all. Gift of the Givers Geologist: Drought Intervention, Dr Gideon Groenewald said high rainfall was indicated in the Lowveld between Friday and Sunday. It is simply warm air rising, but if the sea surface temperature is about 29°C or warmer, energy gets caught up in the system and winds get extremely strong, up to 180km/h, causing lots of water vapour to move into the cloud system. Eloise is currently in Madagascar and is expected to reach Mozambique today or tomorrow. A weather map from Meteo France showing the path tropical storm Eloise may take. When Eloise makes landfall, winds of 180km are killers. Extreme moisture levels cause rainfall of up to 97mm per hour for about five hours. That is 500mm over five hours, over 300km2 in Mpumalanga and Limpopo, he said. Cyclones are part of dry weather systems, so people in South Africa last saw this kind of rainfall with cyclone Demoina in 1988. Anybody who was not old enough to remember 1988 will not know what is going to happen on Sunday to Monday. Groenewald advised people not to venture into any flooded river or try to cross bridges, as the bridges might be gone. Cyclones are unpredictable disasters and Eloise can turn back to sea on Friday and have no dramatic effect on people in Mpumalanga, Limpopo, but it is better to know that if it does enter, roads will be rivers and rivers ... massive flooded areas for kilometres. If Eloise follows the models, we will see severe wind damage in Mozambique and very heavy flooding in large parts of Kruger National Park and inland along the Drakensberg escarpment near Graskop. There could be possible flooding from Friday to Tuesday, he said. Cape Argus
