Nowadays, with the progressing technology, there are new forms of entertainment arising. This also includes video games. Video games are highly popular with them showing a high and linear progressive and popularity rate. However, human beings are very feeble when it comes to keeping themselves dedicated to a particular task. This causes them to easily become bored with the ‘have had enough of it’ effect always clearly visible. This is also why video games have a ‘trend’ where many games just come and go with the audience (here, gamers) having played it to a point where there is no continuous progress ― seemingly a dead end. 

Consequently, the monotonous games, which have a slow progress rate, eye catching, and keep the paces equally distributed, are proven to have a longer chance of surviving the trend. If not that, there are many times that even if the audience hit a burnout point, they are likely to return after a break period. Another beneficial factor that goes unnoticed is the fact that people also need interaction via games. This means that if the game has a feature where it allows a group to play together, it becomes highly loved and famous. With all these factors included there are a few games that have untied the human population in an unknowing yet vigorous way. One of these games includes Minecraft.

Advantages of Creation of Bangladesh to Pakistan.

M.Akram Khan Niazi, Pakistan

Usually smaller Parts of a country having extraordinary resources tries to break away from the mainland to take the maximum advantage of their resources for their advantage, and to protect themselves from the drain of their resources to majority or dominant section of the country, but in case of Pakistan Majority Part on the basis of population, which was also having scare resources, separated from the other part, Generally, it is regarded as an unfortunate event for Pakistan by people of Pakistan, and no Pakistani tries to see other side of the coin of that event for analysis of the benefits achieved to them by this event. The reason of this is that all literature about that event has been written by those who were living in East Pakistan and they suffered personally by this event, due to which they always indicate their miseries and losses and forget to explain the advantages of that event to whole Pakistani Nation. Therefore, it is necessary to see the real results of this event. With the separation of East Pakistan, following advantages were achieved to Pakistan. 1. Economical * Separation of Bangladesh was as much beneficial for Pakistan as separation of Pakistan from India. * As the part of world in which East Pakistan was situated, was having limited resources, and many poor areas of subcontinent are situated in that part, such as Bihar , Assam ,West Bengal, Burma and Bhutan. Technically it was not in the interest of Pakistan, to keep itself attached with East Bengal(Historically one of the most poorest area of subcontinent) .In fact Pakistan after separation saved its future from economic burden of poverty ridden Bangladesh, * Huge Population and scare resources of East Bengal were clear Indicators, that there will be no extraordinary progress in future in that province and no sensible person may think that it was valuable for Pakistan to keep itself attached with most poverty ridden part of this region. * Being a part of East Pakistan, rulers were forcing to West Pakistani citizens to become a market of East Pakistan’s low quality Products, such as Tea, Pans and jute on artificial high prices on the name of Patriotism, while now such type high quality Products may be purchased from other countries on very low prices. * After separation of Bangladesh, it was possible for Pakistan to make its economic policies without having any concern of interests of a far situated part. * Pakistan Economic Managers relieved themselves from the Economic restrictions due to economic interest of East Bengal. That situation was as much harmful, as today Pakistan start to take care of the economic interest of Myanmar or West Bengal; it is certain that such type situation will be disastrous for Pakistan. * With the analysis of economic situation of present day Pakistan and Bangladesh, shows that Pakistan GDP and Foreign currency reserves are double than that of Bangladesh and Electricity production is also 5 times more. It is obvious, that separation was much more in the interest of Pakistan, Because, the only solution of the Disparity between two parts, was to serve the Bangladesh with the resources of West Pakistan. Otherwise there was no other magic solution to address that disparity. * It is still obvious that, there is still no charm in having trade links with countries of South Asia, because it is not in the economic interest of Pakistan, instead of that we should focus on rich and developed areas such as China, Middle East, Far East, Europe and USA. 2. Political Advantages. * Due to extraordinary majority of Bengali Population, it was not possible for any province of West Pakistan to become equivalent to that majority any time in future, and it was certain that representatives of Provinces of West Pakistan will always remain in opposition in assemblies as per modern time democracy principles, this was really a frightening situation and the People of Pakistan were going to be ruled by any ethnocentric Bengali Leader or by any Bengali Military dictator for ever. * Due to Bengali nationalism and ethnocentrism, on the basis of which People of Bangladesh were victimizing the Urdu Speaking Muslim refugees from India and that is still continue, and their Ethnic Cleansing with aborigines people of CHT, were clearly indicating that people of that area were not sincere and aware of the Ideology of Pakistan, in fact attachment of Pakistan with East Bengal was self deception and nothing else. * Due to agitation style and different culture, the politicians of East Pakistan were always blaming Pakistan for their problems and exploitations, while people of Pakistan were worried about deteriorating condition of people of East Pakistan due to poverty and natural disasters, and they were too much fed up with that situation as they were seeing no end of all this, as this thing was also harming the Basic Ideology of Pakistan, and therefore to get rid of this situation and to avoid baseless allegations it was necessary to separate that area(East Bengal) from Pakistan, and this was the main reason that West Pakistani Military Personnel, even having capability for defending that part decided very easily and conveniently to end their any relation with that land on the basis of the facts that they were tired of all those messy affairs. * Due to separation of East Pakistan, Pakistan saved itself and its ideology from baseless criticism of Bengalese Politicians, and now on real grounds they are blaming each other for their problems. * With the separation of Bangladesh, Pakistan Islamic Ideology became more prominent with the introduction of Islamic laws and future scenario of Pakistan became much more firmed with the conversion of population ratio to 98 % Muslims, while with Bangladesh, presence of Huge Hindu minority was having adverse effects on the ideological progress of the country.

3. Security Advantages:

As East Pakistan was situated in the abdomen and inside the body of India and thousand miles away from West Pakistan, India was using this factor for blackmailing and pressurizing Pakistan from the beginning, In fact burden of huge population of East Bengal was loaded on West Pakistan to make Pakistan a crippled and failed state by Indian National Congress. India used that part as a button for keeping under pressure to Pakistan in 1947, in war of 1965 and again in 1970 with policy to occupy large chunk of land in East Pakistan. Due to 1000 miles distance between both parts and that also filled by enemy land, in such worst scenario even maintaining contacts between security forces and their mobility was in fact a difficult, expensive and life taking task, accompanied with wastage of huge resources, ultimately resulting in weakening of Defense forces and economy of the country. By separation of East Bengal, Pakistan was able to get rid of its weak point which was a most easy and favorite target of India. Due to that now Pakistan Defense is more strong and protected as compared to vulnerable and weak position before 1971. 4. Social Advantages: * With the separation of Bengal flow of population from densely populated Bangladesh to parts of West Pakistan stopped, which was a good development for the culture and social set up of West Pakistan. * Due to two national languages, Cultural evolution of the people of West Pakistan was stopped and their local languages were dying, with the separation of Bangladesh, that process was stopped. * After separation of Bangladesh huge jobs opportunities were raised for people of different provinces of West Pakistan in both Federal and Provincial Governments. Due to elimination of share of people of Bengalese in civilian Jobs, which resulted in an increase in participation of local population in the affairs of country, by this their sense of depriving was minimized. * People of Bengal are usually dark skinned, while people of West Pakistan were of Fair Skinned, due to continuous flow of Bengalese from East Bengal was creating racial discomfort and fears in the mind of local populations, that by this they will become minority in their own provinces, specially in the case when Federal Government was encouraging Bengalese to rehabilitate in West Pakistan, By separation of East Bengal this process of migration was also stopped.

This is the reason that after separation of East Pakistan, Mr. Mujibur Rehman was immediately released by President Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, and he never expressed any regret about creation of Bangladesh.

Similarly once Prersident Zia-ul-Haq commented that freedom fighters of Bangladesh were in fact the freedom fighters of Pakistan, Now Bangladesh is a free country and Pakistan is also a free country.

It is crystal clear from all above mentioned facts that separation from Problematic East Bengal created new life and new freedom in Pakistan. Written By M.Akram Khan Niazi. Karachi,Pakistan

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s proposal to close over 200 state parks to public meet predictable criticism.

The Governor said that the state can no longer afford to sustain the parks after noting a budget defect of nearly $26 billion. He is hoping that the closure of the parks would save the state millions of dollar in service costs over the next twelve months. Predictably the public are not taking to this suggestion easily.

This proposal would affect nearly 80 percent of California’s state parks and restrict access to nearly 30 percent of California’s coastlines.

The proposal would affect parks all down the state from the Sierra Nevada mountains to the Big Sur beaches down south. Preventing access to giant redwoods and such features as Lake Tahoe.

At least 2,000 jobs would be threatened, affecting park rangers, biologists and lifeguards, who would be laid off due to the Governor’s plans.

But the National Park Service are threatening to seize some locations if Schwarzenegger goes through with the legislation.

Of the areas that the Service have threatened to siege are San Francisco’s Angel Island, which is where Chinese immigrants were barracked, Mount Diablo, Point Sur historical park in Big Sur and three beaches Ford Ort Dunes near Monterrey.

In his warning letter National Park Service director Jonathan Jarvis warns that the state could lose any future park funding.

Speaking on Schwarzenegger’s behalf a representative remarked: “We’re reviewing the letter and state parks director Ruth Coleman is in the process of talking with the National Park Service and Jon Jarvis about these very issues.”They are discussing a variety of outcomes and solutions depending on what final budget package is passed by the Legislature.”

So far the Governor has rejected the democrats proposal for a $15 annual fee for vehicle registration in order to help maintain the parks.

A spokesman for the National Parks Service said that another option is to cut down the park hours rather than cut them off completely. “We want to work with them, and see what they have to offer” he said “because we don’t want to close the parks and I’m sure they don’t want to either”.

Conservationists have been raising concerns about the implications of leaving the parks untended. They suggest it would costs as much to keep people out of the parks, and in future repairs, as it would to keep them open. They also point out that the parks are a great source of revenue for the state and closing them down may impinge on tourist revenue.

With the threat of the closure of Lake Tahoe to the public many people with property being let as Lake Tahoe vacation rentals are also upset by the proposition along with a large number of businesses and hotels relying on tourist money.

A representative of The National Parks Service had this to say, “Each visitor to a state park is worth $57 per visit. The parks have generated millions throughout California. It’s almost as if they are shooting themselves in the foot.”

The majority of the Americans across the nation and the world united in the country’s financial capital to show their anger against the prevailing global system based on poverty, oppression, and violence. The protest is still continuing as their concerns related to addressing the fundamental economic inequalities are still on the cards.

In order to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor, people come forward with a slogan “You are the 99 percent, we are the 99 percent.” AS the American government always backed the rich people, rich become wealthy and poor become poorer. This destabilized the whole economic expansion and it throws light into the income inequality and the wealth inequality. According to Congressional Budget Office, America’s top rich people, which will be above 1%, increased their income by more than 250% in the last thirty years, while middle income people’s income grew by above 40%. Thus, 85% of the country’s total wealth is owned by the rich people, while the middle class and the lower class own the rest 15%. In addition to that the financial inequality is more among people when compared to inequality in total wealth.

During the time of recession only people came to know more about the financial instability of the country. According to them the crisis they faced in the recent past was mainly due to government’s inappropriate decisions to help the rich. What is a global economic recession? When a country’s economic activity decline significantly for more than six months and affect its industrial production, employment, imports and exports, real estates and real income, then can say that country is facing an economic crisis. When these unfavorable causes of a country give a negative impact on other countries, then we will call it as global recession. The International Monetary Fund considers any global growth less than 3% as a global recession and some of the major reasons behind this can be a financial crisis, lower demands, tightening of monetary policy or fiscal policy contraction.

Among other reasons for the recession the financial crises is the most severe and the long lasting one, which has the power similar to a tsunami. That means, it will snatch everything belonging to us without any warning and the shocks associated with it will last for a long time. The recent recession we faced emerged from a financial crisis and its long and deep impact is still continuing.

The global financial crisis started to show its effects in the middle of 2007 and this continued to 2008. People saw the falling of world stock markets, collapsing of large financial institutions and the breaking of so many international banks. And the government of each country came up with rescue packages to bail out their financial systems. People know that the financial problems have been created by the bailed out institutions and each negative action of these institutions are affecting the livelihoods of almost everyone in this closely connected world. We know that the problem could have been avoided, if the top people supporting the current economic models were not that much influential and selfish. If they considered others viewpoints and concerns they may not have taken any wrong steps or at least they may have thought about the consequences coming after that. They didn’t care about all these matters and the crisis arose and lasted for a long time by hindering the economic growth of a country by making people unemployed and increased their miseries.

The Occupy Wall Street agitation started in Manhattan’s Financial District in last September and has spread to over 100 cities in the United States. The purpose of this people powered movement is to fight against the corruption and the negative policies of major banks and multinational corporations over the democratic process. As people believe that Wall Street has a strong role in the recent economic collapse, they started their protest from the roads of Wall Street. As news related to this protest is airing on all television channels connected with service from providers like Verizon FiOS Deals, we will get all information related to this agitation without any delay. The recent demonstration on this regard was near the Sundance Film Festival’s Filmmaker Lodge. The protest was peaceful but the people involved were forceful in their message, “You are the 99 percent, we are the 99 percent.”

Slucker: Let’s meet you, Who is Jennifer Ehidiamen, What do you really do?

Jennifer: Thanks for the opportunity. I am a journalist, with keen interest in development journalism. I have flirted with a few other things in the past. But my keen interested really is in development journalism and public communication. I also have a strong passion for youth development. Of course a few people know me as a poet.

I write poems and have two published books-collection of poems- “In days to come” and “preserve my saltiness.” I sometimes describe myself as a midwife (smiles). Not because I help women birth babies. The midwife angle of me is basically helping people innovate- I am never afraid to serve as a sidekick in pioneering and developing an idea and basically helping people build their ideas- especially ones that are in line with what interest me.

Slucker: What is it about making a difference that drives you? Why have you chosen this part ?

Jennifer: I think it is just knowing we all as individuals have a purpose here on earth. God created every man for a purpose. I’m driven by the desire to contribute positively and ensure I affect lives around me positively.

Slucker: Tell us about some of your write-ups and initiatives you have been involved with? Which has left the most indelible mark in your heart?

Jennifer: I write a lot of poems. I also volunteer a lot. I’m currently embracing adulthood and building a career in journalism and communications. My past experiences include volunteering with a youth group in Ebutte-Metta in Lagos, interning at Journalists Against AIDS (JAAIDS)Lagos, participating in a youth exchange program called Global Xchange which gave me my first exposure in youth work and international development.

Slucker: What hope do you see for the Nigerian youth? How do you intend to effectively keep making a difference?

Jennifer: Nigerian youth of today have a better chance of succeeding compared to the older generation. We are presented with unique opportunities to build our muscles and take initiative to tackle the many challenges our generation is facing. Instead of falling into the trap of blame-game, I would encourage the Nigerian youth to see the many challenges as stepping stones to better things. Take responsibility in being a doer- and be the change you want to see in the world.

Slucker: What are you up to right now? what is next for you?

Jennifer: I’m currently working with Global Press Institute. I’m working with young girls in Ethiopia, training them on development communications.

Slucker: What’s next??
