COOPERATIVE DEPARTMENT GOD HELP THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES Help ye one an other in righteousness and piety; But help ye not one an other in Sin and transgression.(Al-Quraan 5:2) Co-operative Department aims to facilitate the formation and working of co-operative societies for promotion of thrift, self-help and mutual aid. Co-operatives have been conceived the world over as a device to bring together like minded people of limited means, on a common platform to solve their financial needs. The Cooperatives is a concept wherein persons of humble origin voluntarily associate together on the basis of equality for the solution of their economic problems. The basic principle of cooperative movement is thrift and self-help through cooperation between the members keeping in view the needs of individual members as well as the solution of problems community. Co-operatives aim at bringing about more equitable institution of distribution and optimum utilization of the resources of human as well as financial resources. One for all, all for one is the basic theme of co-operatives. Rochdale brothers, the milk sellers of the city of Rochdale in England are considered to be the pioneers of the concept of cooperation. They formed a society of like-minded people to achieve the common object of economic prosperity by way of improving the marketing of their produce. This is reported to be in the first half of the 19th century. The cooperative movement spread quickly in the western European countries and ultimately led to the formation of International Co-operative Alliance (ICA) with its head quarters established at Geneva at the end of century. In the indo-Pakistan sub-continent, cop-operatives were introduced at the turn of the 19th century, primarily to save the down trodden peasants from the clutches of the usurious money lenders who had a firm strangle hold on the farming community. It usurious money lenders who had a firm strangle holds on the farming community. It sought to inculcate in the small farmers the virtues of saving and thrift, to enable them to help each other in times of need. Thus in the initial stages the movement remained predominately rural and was confined mainly to providing credit facilities to the agriculturists. Later on it entered many diverse fields, like industry, housing, trading, consumer's stores, etc. Which help in providing the co-operative movement with a broader base especially in the urban areas. The Co-operative movement flourished in Pakistan in 1950s and 1960s when small farmers hit by the isolation of migration from India and paucity of resources welcomed the government activities of provicing the platform of Co- operatives to them. A number of development schemes were launched to make the allied primary societies economically viable and improve the living conditions of farmers / members. Co-operatives is a provincial subject. The affairs of the Co-operative Societies are regulated under Co-operative Societies Act; 1925 and Co-operative Societies Rules, 1927.

Windows Phone 7, CES Tablet Predictions Marked Microsoft's Week
Windows Phone 7, CES Tablet Predictions Marked Microsoft's Week
Nicholas Kolakowski
Posted 2011-01-02
Microsoft's week included a Windows Phone 7 crack, 5,000 mobile apps in the Phone Marketplace, and readying for January's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
The last week of 2010 was a quiet one for Microsoft, as the company-along with many other tech stalwarts-geared up for January's Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. Rumors suggest that Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer will use his opening keynote at the show to reveal a line of Windows tablets. Such an event would mirror his CES 2010 keynote, when he unveiled a tablet prototype built by Hewlett-Packard along with devices from two smaller manufacturers. Microsoft doubtlessly hopes that 2011 will bring a sea change in its tablet fortunes-unlike 2010, where Ballmer's early optimism translated into nothing more than a very small handful of limited-run devices.
On Dec. 21, Bloomberg reported that Microsoft would use CES to debut a version of Windows leveraging ARM Holdings technology.
That report
cited unnamed sources "familiar with Microsoft's plans," and suggested the new Windows software "would be tailored for battery-powered devices, such as tablet computers and other handhelds." Both Microsoft and ARM declined to comment to Bloomberg.
If that story proves true, Microsoft's tablet plans could involve Windows devices running both ARM chips and Intel's upcoming "Oak Trail" Atom processors. Microsoft executives have repeatedly emphasized that Oak Trail will play a vital role in its upcoming tablet plans. "Intel is going to come out with [its] Oak Trail chip around the first of the year," Bill Koefoed, Microsoft's general manager of investor relations, said Aug. 10 at the Oppenheimer Annual Technology, Media & Telecommunications Conference in Boston. "And, we think, that's going to offer a lot of new capabilities. Whether it's better usage of battery life and the like, it's going to really help move the category forward." Microsoft will most likely use CES to highlight continuing strong sales of Windows 7, its keystone software platform, and the emergence of Windows Phone 7, its smartphone platform. The company claims sales of 1.5 million Windows Phone 7 devices during its first six weeks of release-that figure represents sales from manufacturers to mobile operators and retailers, not consumers.
However, the company will probably continue not to comment on reports that Windows Phone Marketplace can be cracked-news that spread across the blogosphere after a Dec. 29 proof-of-concept video posted by
Windows Phone Central
. "A -white hat' developer has provided WPCentral with a proof-of-concept program that can successfully pull any application from the Marketplace, remove the security and deploy to an unlocked Windows Phone with literally a push of a button," Windows Phone Central's Daniel Rubino wrote in a Dec. 29 posting accompanying the video. "Neither the app nor the methodology is public, and it will not be released (please don't ask). It is important to note that this was all done within six hours by one developer." Microsoft has encouraged third-party developers to create apps for the marketplace, seeking to create an ecosystem that rivals similar offerings from Google and Apple. At least one analyst this week thought that the company was making progress in its app efforts. "Released in October, WP7 ends 2010 with over 5,000 apps in its marketplace, a milestone it reached quicker than the Google Android platform, which took almost three times as long to reach the same level," Al Hilwa of research firm IDC wrote in a Dec. 29 research note. "Of course the circumstances for such comparisons are never identical, and Google followed a more gradual and tentative launch for Android compared to Microsoft's well-orchestrated big-bang approach." In keeping with previous CES editions, Microsoft will almost certainly use its space at the event to show off hardware created by its partners. This year, that means Windows Phone 7 smartphones, including perhaps the Verizon devices reportedly in the pipeline. It means PCs from Dell and other manufacturers. The question is, does it also mean Windows tablets ready to challenge Apple's iPad?

So much double breasted on the runway this year, I'm not feeling it.
I thought Kolor had some cool stuff. such as these coats. Nod to native American ? without going overboard. Some of the other stuff was just too clumsy -- like the Charlie Brown pumpkin sweater. the shoes idea is close, but why did he add the stupid white jumbo sole?

post #3662 of 55607/25/13 at 1:13pmHey everyone,
I'm planning on remaking this Indochino jacket, and would like to know everyones opinions on this fit. Sorry for the slightly blurry pictures, I'll see if I can get some better ones.
The shirt came free with the suit, so I can remake that (as well as the pants). I'm debating on the shirt as I got button down and I'm considering switching it to spread collar if they'll let me.
Any thoughts?
post #3663 of 55607/25/13 at 1:34pmHi guys. Today was the first fitting for my first bespoke jacket. I admit I'm not used to wearing jackets but something about it seemed off to me. I'm hoping you guys can tell me if it's just my inexperience or if there's indeed something wrong with the jacket. To me it seems the buttoning point could be moved a bit lower and the waist let out a bit. Thoughts?
(Yes, one side of the jacket is longer than the other)

would appreciate your expertise in the fit department.
I bought a RTW suit which I can still return. There is a gap at the back of the collar, see pics. Is this something a "decent" tailor could adjust reasonably easy, or should I just return the suit? Would alterations to fix this risk the overall fit? Would keep it IF this can be altered without too much hassle or risk.
First pic is with the jacket unbuttoned, second and third are buttoned.
(I'm aware that the shirt is too wide in the neck, but it's basically the same problem with the jacket, more or less, with other shirts as well)
You need to take better pics. It's easy to see the collar roll but not so easy to see what exactly is causing it. It can be tailored but knowing the cause determines the fixpost #3667 of 55607/25/13 at 9:02pm
Next time you see your tailor, take this photo. Stumbled across this when looking for more information on how to fix your problem as many of my clients have it and I know it isn't cut and dry. The directions would be this: if the waist fits, let out the waist from the band down thru the seat in order to straighten the seat curve. That is what is causing much of the problem..too angled seat curve. Since you're letting out the waist, the back part of the hips must be taken in to pull the excess back in (essentially, this operation just straightens the seat angle...what a job, right?). The waistband must be chopped off almost all the way around probably to the front belt loop. The more space you have from the outside edge of the back pocket to the out seam the better.
Next step is the back part of the inseam or stride must be let out probably all that it can be. This needs to be a sharp curve because the whole point is to extend the back part of the fork. Then the back rise is reduced slightly, as well when replacing the waistband. A client I'm doing this for has the issue so bad that I am shifting the whole back part of the leg upward to reduce some excess length back there.
In the future, you need to address your posture and fix it or you will spend tons of money fixing trousers and never really get a perfect result. This alteration is taking cloth out of the length at the back which can make the front balance feel even shorter (it already is if the back is too long) and when you walk, you will real,y feel the trousers pull against your thighs. You need to work on strengthening your hip flexors so they'll pull your pelvis back into neutral alignment. That and a few other things like certain stretches and other exercises. Just look up posterior pelvic tilt and/or swayback until you find out what you need to. I know it sucks but it takes 1-2 months to fix the posture problem vs $$$$ for the rest of your life fixing pants.post #3668 of 55607/25/13 at 9:43pmpost #3669 of 55607/25/13 at 9:52pmpost #3670 of 55607/25/13 at 10:44pmpost #3671 of 55607/26/13 at 6:39ampost #3672 of 55607/26/13 at 8:02amHey All,
I've been a lurker for a while, but I've finally decided to get my first navy suit (It's a BR tailored fit navy suit), and I was looking for some feedback on the fit. I've been deciding between a 36R and a 38S and can't seem to decide which one fits better. Any advice/opinion would be appreciated!
As for the slight bunching on my right shoulder, I think it has to do with the fact that my right is lower than my left. I can't seem to figure it out, and it happens on both jackets.

Those pics won't work, unfortunately. If you've been lurking awhile, lurk a little more over to the first post of the thread as it gives instructions on how to take proper photos. Yeah...it's a pain in the ass because it requires someone else to help you but in the end it's really quite crucial to see what needs to be done. It's all for your benefit.

1" diameter and thick metal casting. These aren't cheap plastic. They have a great finish and should last many years.

These are a real hit with my son! He really likes them, as he is a 32nd degree Mason, and is the Worshipful Master of his lodge. His fellow Masons are going to buy them for their motorcycles!

Book Review: Zombie Bitches from Hell – Author Zoot Campbell
Let's try an experiment. "So I was reading Zoot Campbell's Zombie Bitches from Hell the other day." What kind of reaction do those words evoke in you? Are you offended by the book's title or by any of the words contained therein? If so, you should, without question, pass on this one, 'cause it doesn't exactly increase in political correctness after the title page. If, on the other hand, the title makes you think "Cool!" … Continue reading

Immigration officials held a cancer patient for four hours before they allowed him to enter the USA because one of his cancer drugs caused his fingerprints to disappear. His oncologist is now advising all cancer patients who are being treated with the commonly used drug, capecitabine, to carry a doctor's letter with them if they want to travel to the USA.
The incident is highlighted in a letter to the cancer journal, Annals of Oncology [1], published online today (Wednesday 27 May). According to the oncologist, several other cancer patients have reported loss of fingerprints on their blog sites, and some have also commented on similar problems entering the USA.
Dr Eng-Huat Tan, a senior consultant in the medical oncology department at the National Cancer Centre, Singapore, described how his patient, a 62-year-old man, had head and neck cancer that had spread (metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma), but which had responded well to chemotherapy. To help prevent a recurrence of the cancer the patient was put on a maintenance dose of capecitabine, an anti-metabolite drug.
Capecitabine is a common anti-cancer drug used in the treatment of a number of cancers such as head and neck cancers, breast, stomach and colorectal cancers. One of its adverse side-effects can be hand-foot syndrome; this is chronic inflammation of the palms or soles of the feet and the skin can peel, bleed and develop ulcers or blisters. "This can give rise to eradication of finger prints with time," said Dr Tan.
The patient, Mr S, developed a mild case of hand-foot syndrome, and because it was not affecting his daily life he was kept on a low dose of the drug.
"In December 2008, after more than three years of capecitabine, he went to the United States to visit his relatives," wrote Dr Tan. "He was detained at the airport customs for four hours because the immigration officers could not detect his fingerprints. He was allowed to enter after the c
