Pak-US Stability amid Afghanistan

US, Pakistan seek stability amid Afghan doubts.

The United States and Pakistan resume talks next week after a three-year hiatus as they seek stability in often turbulent ties amid mutual concerns over Afghanistan’s future.

Pakistan and United States both had started a strategic dialogue in 2010 to work through their complicated relationship, but the talks were quickly frozen due to repeated crises, including over the secret 2011 US raid that killed Osama bin Ladin. The talks would look at both security and economic cooperation and seek to build a blueprint for future ties. Having seen the highs and lows of this relationship, the official said on condition of anonymity, both countries have put an enormous amount of effort into assiduously putting this relationship on firmer grounding over the last year and a half.

The United States formed an uneasy partnership with Pakistan after the September 11, 2001 attacks is seeking Islamabad’s assistance again as it is pulls tens of thousands of troops from Afghanistan this year and Washington ends its longest-ever war. US president has grown frustrated as Afghan president Hamid Karzai holds off on signing a security agreement that would allow a smaller number of troops from the US and the rest of the NATO alliance to stay  in a support role.

Marriage Make Us Stronger Really.

Marriage really does make you stronger

Husbands have tougher bones than their single counterparts.

Men in stable relationships had stronger bones than men who never married.

But the findings only apply if a man marries after the age of 25.

Marrying before this tends to result in weaker bones-perhaps due to the stresses of raising a family.

It has been linked to a reduced risk of heart disease and better cancer survival rates. According to researched it is found that marriage is also good for a man’s bones- but only if he marries after the age of 25.

It is also found by research that men in stable marriages or long term relationships who had not been divorced or separated previously had stronger bones than men whose marriages had broken down.

And those in stable relationships also had stronger bones than men who never married. But the age at which a man married was also a factor. Those who got hitched before the age of 25  had weaker bones than whose who walked down the aisle later on.

However rather randomly it did find that women with supportive partners had greater bone strength than those whose partners didn’t appreciate them or were emotionally unsupportive.

Among men who first  married prior to turning 25, the researchers found a significant reduction in spine bone strength for each year they were married before that age.

That is the first time that marital histories and marital quality have been linked to bone health. There is very little known about the influence of social factors other than socioeconomic factors on bone health. Good health depends not only on good health behaviours, such as maintaining a healthy diet and  not smoking, but also on other social aspects of life, such as marital life stories and quality of relationships.

According to the researchers, it is added that the findings imply that we should not assume that marriage has the same health rewards for men and women.

Specifically, never marrying and experiencing a divorce, widowhood, or separation are associated with poor boon health in men, whereas poor marital quality is associated with poor bone health in women.

At last the link between marriage and bone health were evident in the spine but not the hip, possibly due to differences in bone composition. 

Google Apologizes for Internet Problems

Google apologizes after online service stumble

Google apologized after the internet giant’s widely used free email and an array of other services were disrupted by apparent software woes.  

Earlier today most Google uses who used logged I n services like Gmail, Google+, Calendar and Documents found they were unable to access those services for approximately 25 minutes, Google engineering vice president Ben Treynor said in a blog post. For about 10% of users the problem persisted for as much as 30 minutes longer. Google did not disclose the full extent of the Gmail glitch but the brief outage was believed to have affected million of people, including those using the service at work. Complaints were posted online from Europe, Canada, the United States and elsewhere. An online Google Apps tracking dashboard, which indicated that a dozen services – including Gmail and its social network Google+-- had affected was brief or lasted the better part of an hour, please accept our apologies—we strive to make all of Google’s services available and fast for your, all the time, and we missed the mark today. The issue has been resolved, and were are now focused on correcting the bug putting more checks and monitors in place to ensure that this kind of problem does not happen again. Yahoo even tweeted a screen captured of a Google message apologizing for the problem.    

Pakistan Ready to Talk with Taliban

Talk with Taliban

The political parties and the politicians of Pakistan are divided on the issue of talks with the terrorists and different factions of Taliban. They are not sure about the number of these groups, some of them really want peace only. For this issue, six months have passed since it unanimously authorized the Pakistani government to hold talk with the Taliban for peace but no talks have been held so far, despite the Pakistani government assurances. Different political leaders of the right wing parties haven demanding a clear policy on negotiations. These talks have been delayed unnecessarily. But  the Pakistani government seems to be in no hurry to hold the talks.

The Pakistani Government is confused over the issue of who to talk to. The interior minister of Pakistan has changed his position many times in this regards. His only option had been negotiations but he has not made any progress. A molana who was approached by the Pakistani government to mediate the talks has declined to work as a good will ambassador. The Pakistani government will decide for or against holding the talks with the Taliban. It means that they have not even decided to hold the talks.

The earlier statements from Pakistani government of all the functionaries and interior Minister is confused and cannot make its mind on the issue. He said that I am sure that time for negotiations has passed it is now time to begin military action against all the terrorists. We must hunt them down where ever we can find them. No ifs and buts, the government should order the military operation within 48 hours. We strongly recommend this action to save the country from these wolves. The trumpeters should sing the song of the death for them.

INDO-PAK TIES

INDO-PAK TIES

Wars in the past have never solved any problem and will not solve any issues in future. It is pointed that only peace in the region can help people in both the countries prosper. Recent history has been witness to India and Pakistan exploring prospects of enhancing their economic ties. A key pointer in this direction is holding of talks between commerce secretaries of the both countries on sidelines of the SAARC ministerial meeting in New Delhi.

This would be followed by a second annual conference on normalizing India-Pakistan trade ties. Which would be attended by businessmen, academicians and trade experts from both sides.

Ironically not much importance has been given to definite steps taken by India and Pakistan to maintain their nuclear diplomacy. This year also began with India and Pakistan exchanging lists of their nuclear facilities. This exchange a part of a 1988 pact that prevents them from attacking each other’s nuclear installations, has been held each year on New Year’s Day since 1992. India handed over its  list to the Pakistan High Commission in new Delhi, while Pakistan handed over its  list to the Indian High Commission in Islamabad.

History of both Asian Countries bears witness to nuclear policies of both Indian and Pakistan having acted as a deterrent in preventing both countries from indulging in an open conflict. Continuous exchange of their nuclear lists points to the importance given by the both sides in maintaining their nuclear diplomacy. Even the United States, known to have always been critical of their nuclear capabilities has apparently toned down its approach. Initially US experts lashed out at their nuclear policies making noise about their heading toward mutually assured destruction. The US however still  maintains this approach but has ceased making much noise about it.  Whatever the US viewpoint, India and Pakistan have certainly come a long way from even considering indulgence in open conflict. Every year when they exchange lists of their nuclear capabilities and each time they consider options of improving their ties the important role played by their nuclear diplomacy stands out. Yet more political noise is made, perhaps to earn media coverage, about differences held regarding Kashmir and other issues as irritants in Indo-Pak ties. Some importance needs to be given to bridge communication gap prevalent in various sections regarding Indo-Pak relations. 

Education for Girls

Education for Girls

There is a famous quote that “give me a good mother I will give you a great nation”. Undoubtedly only great mothers could bring up great people who in turn make great societies and eventually a great nation. But how would some become a great other? Would it be a divine guidance or is it for us to guide our daughters, right from their childhood, to the path of becoming great mothers.

Is this possible without imparting quality education to girls? The answer is vehemently no. in the current era, the significance of education for girls particularly, has increased manifolds. Thinking about progress without education sounds like a fool’s day dream.
