According to Bol News, on December 6, 2019, Waqar Zaka filed a case to legalize cryptocurrency in Pakistan. He said that it should be legal in Pakistan because without it the country could not progress for long. you may know that It has been banned since April 4, 2018.
Waqar Zaka even told the government of Pakistan that if cryptocurrency was legalized in Pakistan, all loans of Pakistan could be easily repaid. If the government gives a chance to Waqar Zaka, he can easily legalize crypto and pay off all debts to Pakistan. Waqar says that crypto has been declared illegal in Pakistan for no reason. He requests to PM Imran khan that Cryptocurrency should be legalized in Pakistan. But so far the government has not responded.
Zaka highlighted why Crypto must be legalized in Pakistan, in a hearing presided over by a two-member bench of the court headed by Justice "KK Agha" & "Mrs. Kausar Sultana". He says that Pakistan is at the risk of being blacklisted by major marketplaces of digital currencies, as major companies are now backing out from doing business.
Many countries around the world are using this currency and this currency is spreading very fast all over the world. If Pakistan continues to ban them, Pakistan will suffer huge losses in a few years.
Why Cryptocurrency is so Important in Pakistan?
When Waqar Zaka talked to the government of Pakistan about crypto in 2019, a bitcoin was worth about Rs. 1,112,131 Pakistani rupees, which was a matter of great fortune. But now, a year later, the value of the bitcoin began to rise sharply and on December 31, 2020, its value was 4,621,198.24 Pakistani Rupees.
This was a good time for us if we had obeyed Waqar Zaka at that time and if the government had acted on it then maybe today all the debt of Pakistan would have been paid off. at this time there are many people who have earned a lot of money by following Waqar Zaka.
The FIA arrests people working on crypto in Pakistan, which is very unfair. On December 17, 2020, when the FIA did not respond to the court, the court stopped arresting people working on digital cryptocurrency and also said that if anyone from the FIA arrests any person who works on cryptocurrency then must tell them. Because Pakistan already has lost a huge advantage. We hope that very soon cryptocurrency will unban and people start their online business. We say thanks to Waqar Zaka for this effort.
Here are some Tweets.
We appreciate the hard work of Waqar Zaka and we hope that this currency will soon be available in Pakistan.

I don't know how to understand the market indicators and chart lines. I get perplexed by the vocabularies used by stock analysts and punters in defining the market trends. I am an average Joe and not a self proclaimed wizard when it comes to stock investments.
If I say so that one has to apply what is popularly called "Failure mode and effects analysis"– (Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia– Failure Mode and Effect Analysis: FMEA from Theory to Execution) into financial and stock investments I may be called as pessimist by my friends but in today's global financial and economic situation one cannot avoid perhaps.
I know that the market is always filled with full of volatility and fluctuations. I also know there cannot be two moons. To my surprise stock punters and analysts very often bet on to prove their point that there exist two moons. Sometime they do succeed surprisingly!
Some would say market shows the gale sign and for others it may be showing a hurricane trend. Often I think such analysis is routine activity like buttering on the loaf of your breakfast breads. Is it becoming any one's skill and all think that any one can understand and accordingly place their bets on it. It is not as true and simple when you try to execute it practically.
I know that stock market always come out with two tales. One is bullish and the other is bearish story and the common villain for both the stories is 'bubble'. Normal investors often get themselves drenched in it and fondly on the look out for ways to get out of their (mostly wrong) entry from their investments with loss peeping out.
I have very simple and normal investment attitude and believe in getting rich slowly.
Therefore, I don't fit myself into the community of cyber- market tribes hunting for tips and scoops by searching out in the net religiously to influence my investment decisions.
It would bring out in you a different kind of perception if you could lay your hands on the best-selling book-Virus of the Mind: The New Science of the Meme, Richard Brodie.
I always remember, when it comes to stock investments and financial planning the words of Publilius Syrus" "Art has a double face, of expression and illusion, just like science has a double face: the reality of error and the phantom of truth." Equally such point of thinking applies to all our financial and stock investment decisions.

A power nap is required when you are feeling tired due to sleep depravity otherwise you will end up getting into a deep sleep without even realizing. And trust me; a deep sleep after your body is tired is very hard to wake out of. You can also try to sleep a little bit longer the night before you are actually planning to wake up all night. This way your body will tend to "bank" the sleep, making it easier to get through the stretch of sleeplessness and helping to wake up all night.

6.) Keep the Lights Bright to Stay Awake
Light will slow your biological clock and you sleep more when lights are off. So, keep the lights on as it will hit your receptors which will delay your circadian rhythm and change your biological clock. This is really helpful for you and you can enjoy your night.
When planning to wake up all night, make sure that your room is well lit with bright lights that are actually brighter than the usual. Wondering how this trick works in helping you to wake up all night? Well, your body clearly understands the difference between the changes in lighting and darkness. This way your body will feel more awake in the bright lights. Since the body clock is linked physically to the eyes, if you are feeling super tired the next day, simply go outside in the sun. Getting exposed to the sunlight will help to wake your body up from the tiredness and sleep depravity. When in darkness, your body produces melatonin, which is the sleep hormone. This is the reason why we often tend to turn down the lights at night when trying to sleep. But that's probably going to make you sleepier when trying to wake up all night. This makes it as one of the best trick to wake up all night.

This way, your body will become more attentive and alert in order to compensate for the new activities being performed.
12.) No Carbs, Only Protein
Proteins take time to digest and when trying to wake up all night, these will tend to a lot work to your body and divert the senses from feeling drowsy. The tendency of our body is that it requires something to burn in order to stay busy and this will help you to get through the night. Particularly if you are focusing on a brain-intensive task similar to writing a paper, so this adds to a good idea and makes you grab some snacks or an extra meal to keep you awake all night. Instead of focusing on carbs like potato chips, pizza and most of the biggest late-night cramming staples which can make you gain weight, simply focus on your protein consumption.
The reason behind this recommendation is that Carbs tend to store energy for later and can eventually make you feel sleepy on the other hand proteins tend to provide your body with instant energy. Everyone tends to associate foods with high carbohydrates levels and with a lot of energy, but what they actually do is to prepare your body to exert the energy which is produced. Confusing, isn't it? Well this means that carbs help your body only when they are accompanied with regular exercise. So, it is better to take proteins in order to wake up mall night. Proteins are much more helpful in keeping you going through the night and helping to wake up all night without feeling drowsy.

However, doing a few pushups or jumping jacks, going for a walk or any activity which gets your blood flowing will help to keep your brain on the right track and assist in the process to wake up all night. This is basically a physiological response to thousands of years of evolution. When your body is exerted with physical energy, it automatically signals to your brain that it is time to be alert and focused and not to feel sleepy or lazy. This makes it as another important tip that can help you to wake up all night.
14.) When You Are Done, Rest and Regroup
With the help of the enlisted tips, you could finally make it to the task. But, it's not just about the task but about your health too.

Coronavirus Update – "Using more recent data from China of the coronavirus' infection and death rates than the Indian scientists had, "Moon of Alabama" concludes that the "pandemic" has reached its peak and will be over with in a month. If so, then Jon Rappoport was correct in the beginning that coronavirus was just another big scare hype. Let's hope that this is the case and that the coronavirus is a far less threat than ordinary flu. Nevertheless, such a happy outcome still leaves us with a lot of puzzling questions.

Criticality is in the air! The horses are out of the barn on the Wuhan Coronavirus." – James Howard Kunstler – GOOD ARTICLE FROM MR. KUNSTLER AS USUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tweets of Mass Destruction – "And so, today, in spite of world tensions, most all countries are attempting to keep the pressure cooker from building up too much steam. But into this mix we have one Donald Trump. To say that he's rather inept at diplomacy would be to give him far too much credit. A veritable textbook narcissist, he wakes up each morning, eager to send out tweets that describe himself and his country as being above all others and, when he does not receive obeisance in return, increases the vitriol through further tweets." – Jeff Thomas – EXCELLENT ARTICLE FROM JEFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joe Biden continues to prove to America that he is a deeply weird man – "Aside from having Leftist politics, being a compulsive liar, and not being very bright, there's something just off about Joe Biden. He's the creepy uncle that smart parents refuse to let babysit their children. It doesn't mean he's ever done anything wrong; it just means there's that vibe. And the latest vibe issue occurred on Sunday, when the 77-year-old Biden kissed his 19-year-old granddaughter on the lips." – Andrea Widburg
CNN's blatant and bizarre Tulsi Gabbard snub – "CNN has held more town hall events than any of the three cable news networks over the past few years and continues that programming strategy as we head into the meat of the 2020 campaign. For the most part, the network has made an effort to provide every candidate on the Democratic side during the primary season with an hourlong stage to answer questions from moderators and voters alike. And that's what makes CNN's decision to snub Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) from a series of town halls just days before the New Hampshire primary not only odd but optically nonsensical." – Joe Concha – TULSI DOESN'T FIT THE NARRATIVE!!!!

Steve Bannon lays out a shocking scenario of the real reason behind Bloomberg's investment of $2 billion in politics – "If Steve Bannon is correct (and I think he probably is), Michael Bloomberg has no intention of occupying the Oval Office; his real plan is far more devious and frightening.

Truthful Information for Reduced Sentences.
Whether someone provides "truthful information" to qualify for a reduced sentence under the safety valve is not up to the government, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit held on August 21, 2020. U.S. v. Lima-Rivero, 19-10759 (5th Cir. Aug. 21, 2020).
After pleading guilty to possession of methamphetamine, the defendant provided information to the government in an attempt for a lower sentence under the safety valve, which allows a court to go below a mandatory minimum sentence if a defendant meets several criteria.
One of those criteria is that the defendant must provide "all information and evidence [he has] concerning the offense" to the government. In this case, the DEA agent testified that the defendant was "less than forthcoming" and didn't qualify for the safety valve. The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas denied the safety valve, reasoning that "I think it's up to the government to determine if the defendant has complied" with the safety valve provision.
But the judge was wrong: it's not up to the government at all. Under 18 U.S.C. s. 3553(f)(5), it is the court's responsibility to determine all the criteria for the safety valve. The Fifth Circuit said that the agents testimony wasn't even based on fact but only "mere speculation," and returned the case to the district court to determine for itself whether the safety valve applied.

One sees always how badly it stands for the society, if the liberty is negotiated. Today you can read everywhere: Freedom would end if reason demanded it.
This is not so. Reason is subjective and depends on the goal an individual wants to achieve. My reason is far from being yours. But freedom is absolute, freedom is not the reward for good behavior, and freedom has no good or evil. Doing things "wrong" is essential for progression. Therefore, by definition, all opponents of freedom are reactionaries! And so they should be treated!
Aristotle, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche – read this if you don't believe me. It is world literature.
If that's too much for you, pop culture has done a masterful job of summarizing some of it.

Planned Reading for February 2017
Janet Taylor. This calendar really is something else, she is such a talented lady. I have to think where to put it to best enjoy it now :)
Pride & Prejudice' is coming to my town. It's the first time I will have seen something of that nature and I'm so excited about it! I'll let you know what I think of it once I've seen it.
Darcy's Hope - Beauty from Ashes'. I believe the story is concluded in this latest volume.
I hope you have a lovely month, and that February brings you good things, good romance and some good reading! Let me know what you're reading in the comments :)

Great reading selections, Ceri! I hope you enjoy them.ReplyDelete
I'm so pleased that you have our newest HOLIDAYS WITH JANE. I hope you enjoy it. <3ReplyDelete

I have several unread books including the Christmas Holidays With Jane and Darcy by Any Other Name which I hope to read soon however I regularly re read favourites. I've just finished Rainy Days and Rainbow Promise again and am currently re reading the Memory Trilogy by Linda Wells ��. Happy reading Ceri and enjoy your son's birthday.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you Glynis! My son enjoyed his special day :)Delete
I love a re-read myself. One of the downsides of being behind in my reading is that it's harder to find time to reread, but reading an old favourite is like visiting an old friend, very comforting!
Oh yep, a birthday boy celebration will keep one busy. I love Janet's calendars too.ReplyDelete
Neat about the play coming to your town. I've not seen one, either, so I get why you're excited.
Mmm, nice line up of books and guest visits. I read my first of the Holidays With Jane anthos for Christmas and loved it. I need to read the others.
Have a great month!
I'm going to the theatre, too! A production called Mr. Darcy Loses the Plot is on tour but sadly I don't think it's coming near you Ceri:ReplyDelete
For once I'm ahead of you with a couple of your reads! I'm sure you'll enjoy Darcy's Hope at Donwell Abbey and Snowbound at Hartfield. Darcy's Hope does indeed wrap the story up and rather nicely, too. Snowbound also features Sir Walter and Elizabeth Elliot from Persuasion, as well as the Knightleys, the Colonel and the Darcys. Two good choices there.
I've got all of the Holidays with Jane books sitting in my TBR mountain and really must get around to them.
Have a wonderful time with your boy's birthday!Replies
I hope you enjoyed Mr Darcy Loses the Plot Anji!Delete
My son's birthday went well, thank you. He enjoyed it at any rate, which is what I was hoping for :)
Ceri, if Mr. Darcy Loses the Plot ever comes anywhere near your neck of the woods, you simply have to go to see it. I was lucky enough to see it with the lovely Cass Grafton, who was paying a visit to her old home town, which is where I live. I don't think either of us stopped laughing the whole time. My jaw and cheeks ached for hours after.Delete

Happy Birthday to your son! I wish a production was coming to our town, as I would be first in line! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it! You too Anji, would love to hear about that one you are seeing! The second book of Darcy's Hope is just as wonderful as the first! Loved it! I plan to read Maria's new tea time novella as well and I have just started on the first book of Jane Austen Mysteries by Stephanie Barron!ReplyDeleteReplies
The production was enjoyable, Carole, but due to the time constraints, you didn't really get the relationship building between Elizabeth and Darcy because it's so subtle. It was very comedic, especially Mrs Bennet and Mr Collins, which I really enjoyed.Delete
Ceri-hope you have a wonderful time at your little boy's birthday.ReplyDelete
Love your choice of reading material for Feb. The second book by G.Monette is fantastic,I really loved it and am glad I read the two together.
I'm not sure what I'll read next in terms of JAFF. I'm actually thinking of taking a break from it as I'm kinda reaching a point where I'm finding it hard to concentrate on the storylines and my 'hunger' for D and E plots is ebbing away. (I know that's an awful thing to say,but it's the truth!).
Happy reading Ceri.
Great reading list, Ceri! Can't wait to read your reviews!ReplyDelete
I have two kids with birthdays in February!ReplyDelete
I hope you enjoy the play! I went to a small production of Pride and Prejudice back in November with Dung Vu. We had a fantastic time together.
Snowbound in Hartfield sounds good! Col. F is one of my favorite characters!
Have a great February!
I do hope the play is or was everything you hoped for and that you enjoy those books. I have read one as a WIP and one that was published. I have not read Holidays With Jane/Will You Be Mine. I hope you and your son enjoy the birthday holiday. My granddaughter turned 4 last Sunday. I also have the calendar on my wall next to my PC thanks to winning it on Claudine's blog. And I hope the winter is treating you well. Have a lovely rest of the month.ReplyDeleteReplies
I enjoyed the play, thank you Sheila. I know we're going back a bit now, but I hope your granddaughter had a good birthday. I have another birthday coming up, my daughter's birthday is later this week, so I have something else to stress about now!Delete

Sometimes we get really stuck with having students do presentations in the same way over and over. But using the green screen allows you to have students actually "step into" their presentation and present like they are really there. This is a simple, but powerful app that can allow you to do that. All you have to do to use it is to set up a backdrop (make sure it is a single vibrant color), film the student, choose the image you want to replace the backdrop with and whala! You have an awesome video. If it's not quite the way you want yet, you can even do some simple editing within the app. It's quick and easy and creates a great product.
You need to let the students run the show with this one. If you are hoping for a beautiful product and you need to do all the filming yourself it will take FOREVER to get through a class of kids. But if you set this up as a station in your class and the students can do it themselves it's a much better use of class time. A second, and probably bigger issue is, you also have to do all your filming in the app. As far as I know you can't import movies in that you filmed with another camera.
Sample Uses
I've used this in a weather unit and a biographies unit to have the students make a presentation about a specific person or weather condition. Anytime you want the students to "step into" the situation this a great tool. The best thing about it is that the students from about grade 3 and up could do the filming and editing themselves.
Do I plan to use it?
Yes! Already have and will again. It's simple and really engages the students
Commitment and Learning Curve
MEDIUM. This is super easy to use and your kids will figure it out with almost no teacher help.
Best for ES MS or HS?
Any grade. It's more dependant on the project than the age range.
The app on iTunes costs $2.99

Could you support a young asylum seeker?
People in Gloucestershire are being encouraged to find out more about fostering children seeking asylum this Refugee Week (17 to 23 June).
National government figures show that in March 2018 there were 4,480 unaccompanied asylum-seeking children in care in England. They come from countries like Afghanistan, Eritrea, Sudan and Albania, and most unaccompanied children are teenage boys between the ages of 14 and 18.
Richard, who has fostered both young asylum seekers and local children, said: "In 2014, I was challenged by the television images of young people, many the same ages as my eldest grandsons, behind a high wire fence calling out, 'We are people not animals'. I then realised that as I had a spare bedroom I could offer a home to those children who had no families, and so I applied to become a foster carer."
Young asylum seekers usually arrive in Gloucestershire in one of three ways. They arrive unexpectedly, for example after being dropped off at the side of the motorway, they arrive through the national transfer scheme or they are found to be victims of modern slavery.
As a foster carer for a young asylum seeker, you'll need to support the young person to learn English, settle in education or training, make links in the local community and support them with their legal application for asylum. You will also need to be prepared to offer emotional support to overcome the trauma they may have experienced in their home country and on the journey to get here.
Cllr Richard Boyles, cabinet member for children and young people, said: "Children seeking asylum have been through a great deal. I believe there are people in Gloucestershire who can offer these young people support and a stable environment to help them adjust to their new home.
"As well as supporting them through education, an important part of a foster carer's role is to help a young person develop their skills for the future and give them the opportunity to create a new life.
"Fostering young asylum seekers requires an open mind and curiosity about other cultures. Our foster carers who look after these children have been introduced to new music, food and religious practices and say they are learning as much as the young people."
For more information, visit the Gloucestershire Fostering website, ring the fostering recruitment team on 01242 532654 or speak to us at our information stand at Gloucester Farmers' Market on Friday, 21 June.
