Home Afghanistan Coronavirus: Pak-Afghan Chaman border to be closed from Monday
Coronavirus: Pak-Afghan Chaman border to be closed from Monday
The federal government on Sunday announced the closure of Chaman border with Afghanistan for one-week amid the coronavirus outbreak in the neighbouring country.
The interior ministry in its notification said the border will remain close for one week starting Monday i.e. March 2.
The move comes after Kabul confirmed its first case of the coronavirus on Monday with several others being tested for the diseases. Ferozuddin Feroz, the minister of public health, told a press conference one of three suspected cases had been confirmed in the Western province of Herat.
In addition to the border closure, strict precautionary measures have also been put in place in border areas to stop the spread, including the establishment of an isolation ward at DHQ Hospital Parachinar.
Moreover, screening at the Babe-e-Dosti border crossing in Chaman is underway. Medical checkpoints have also been set up at Torkham border for those coming into the country from Afgahnistan's Nangarhar province.
According to the provincial health department, more than 10,000 people have undergone screening in the last five days at the Chaman border.
Isolation wards have also been set up at Pak-Afghan Friendship Hospital, Landi Kotal and hospitals in Jamrud.
Separately, Levies officials on Sunday said 510 pilgrims from Iran were under quarantine at the Pakistan House.
A day earlier, Balochistan's health officials declared 252 pilgrims from Iran free from coronavirus after putting them under quarantine for 15 days.
According to Levies officials, the pilgrims were cleared after they were screened by the health officials.
Meanwhile, two more cases of the novel coronavirus were confirmed by Special Assistant to PM on Health Dr Zafar Mirza on Saturday.
"We have received reports of two more positive cases of coronavirus, one has been reported in Sindh province, (the) other in federal areas," Mirza told a press conference.
Earlier, the Sindh Health Department had confirmed that a patient who had returned from Iran, had been diagnosed with the infection in Karachi at 5pm.
The patient and those who came into contact with him have also been quarantined, confirmed the provincial health department.
Speaking about the two earlier cases of coronavirus in Pakistan, Dr Mirza said there was no need to panic as they were both getting better. "One of the patients will be discharged from the hospital quite soon," he said.
Dr Mirza said that the infection spread to Pakistan after cases were first reported in 47 countries. He said that the disease had spread to Pakistan last as the government had taken necessary precautions.

Born in the Wild is a new reality show that we aren't too sure about.
Is this the worst idea for a reality show in the history of TV?
That may be a big call (we've all seen Dance Moms). But once you see what this reality show is about, you will 100% agree.
Giving birth. While Hallmark thinks it's a magical moment filled with rosy cheeks, pink or blue ribbon and smiling parents, this is not reality. Reality is way messier, involves purple babies, blood, and pain (and, of course, ends in a beautiful baby).
So why wouldn't you make a reality show about giving birth? Everyone loves One Born Every Minute, right?
Why wouldn't you make a reality show about women giving birth in the wild?
And by wild, I don't mean dressed up TV set with a few palm trees and wind from a fan.
By wild, we mean Survivor wild.
A still from Birth in Nature by Simone.
The show was inspired by Simone, a woman who was filmed giving birth completely unassisted in the Daintree Rainforest (north-eastern Queensland) and uploaded it to YouTube in February. To date, it has received 20,469,213 views.
The new reality show, Born in the Wild, announced by Lifetime on Wednesday, will following young parents who will ditch the hospital for nature to give birth. Why? Because giving birth surrounded by the beauty and serenity of nature is beautiful.
What happens when the craziest experience of a woman's life becomes truly wild, and soon-to-be parents decide to take on an unassisted birth in the outdoors?
Critics of the show have warned Born in the Wild could kick off a dangerous trend that will endanger mothers and their babies.
Lifetime has stated that the reality show participants may not always be first time parents and will be monitored closely by the crew.
"We're taking extreme precautions to make sure the mothers and the babies are safe," Eli Lehrer, Lifetime's senior VP and head of nonfiction programming, told Entertainment Weekly. "Our presence at these births is going to make them far safer than if they were doing it on their own."
However, the dangers of an unassisted birth in nature are too clear to ignore. Besides the normal dangers of giving birth unassisted and the distance to hospital facilities if things go wrong, there is also the wildlife to consider. There are crocodiles in the Daintree, people. Not the delivery room audience you want while giving birth.
WARNING: The below video is a GRAPHIC account of a "wild birth".
How and why I chose to give birth in nature was much about the inner journey as the outward process ... and equally as powerful. Afterwards I felt like my whole life had been in preparation for that one moment. My sense of wholeness and peace was bigger and deeper than anything I had ever felt before. This feeling only continues to expand and ripple out into my family, my relationships, my life. It has had a profound effect on my mothering and for my children especially.
For the full video, watch below.
Apparently, we're not all "mum enough" for a natural birth.

Star Wars: The Black Series | Maz Kanata (The Last Jedi)
By bill - September 4, 2017
Hasbro packs a lot of quality in one small package, as Maz Kanata makes her Black Series debut.
Maz Kanata was one of the few major players from The Force Awakens who Hasbro did not release in The Black Series, but the pirate queen/ proprietor is returning in The Last Jedi and she's among the first figures in Hasbro's latest wave. So it's been a few years coming, but Maz was definitely worth the wait.
Being in 6″ scale, Maz only stands about 3″ tall, which establishes her small size in comparison to other figures in The Black Series, but she's so filled with wonderful detail in both the sculpt and paint that she still feels like a solid value. Maz is perfectly screen accurate, in the same outfit she wore in Episode VII, and every facet is intricately adapted in toy form. There's a lot to be impressed by here, be it Maz's bracelets and rings, the variety of textures in her shirt, pants, and vest, or the ornate, multi-colored boots she wears, painted with remarkable precision considering their size.
In addition to the standard Black Series articulation, Maz features two extra joints which allow her goggles to raise or lower over her eyes. It's a great feature to include for this clairvoyant, known for seeing many things in people's eyes, and the goggles look great in either position. A word of warning, though– my figure's goggles were a bit stiff when I first opened the package, so I had to free up the paint around the joint a bit before moving them. Be gentle, as the pieces are delicate, but once the joint is free, the goggles move and hold in place very well.
Maz includes a blaster, which the back of her box teases she may use in The Last Jedi, as well as one of her chests, complete with a removable lightsaber hilt. I like the addition of this extra accessory both as a throwback to The Force Awakens, and to eliminate some of the negative space in Maz's packaging, due to her diminutive stature.
I'm very happy to have Maz in The Black Series, and even happier that Hasbro really pulled out all the stops with this figure. I cannot imagine a better toy version of Maz than this, and for a first action figure, that is even more impressive.
Look for Maz Kanata in the second wave of The Last Jedi Black Series, available now at Toys R Us stores and coming soon to most retailers.

Correlation between glycemic control and dyslipidemia in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patient
Neha Yadav, Sujata Singh, Smita Gupta, Saurabh Mishra, Krishna Singh
Background: India is one of the countries with highest number of diabetes patients. Patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus are usually dyslipidemic. The objective of the research was to study the pattern of dyslipidemia and to study the correlation of glycemic control with dyslipidemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
Methods: A cross sectional observational study was performed on patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus over 6 months period. The study included 200 patients and the variables recorded were demographic profile, FBS, PPBS, HbA1C and lipid profile parameters. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to HbA1C level i.e. Group I (Good glycemic control HbA1C 6-7 gm%), group II (Fair glycemic control HbA1C 7.1-8.2 gm%) and group III (poor glycemic control, HbA1C >8.2 gm%).
Results: The data showed that TG level was maximum in group III and was minimum in group I. Comparison between the group shows a significant difference between all the groups (P <0.001). A significant positive correlation (Correlation coefficient 0.67, P <0.001) was also observed between level of TG and HbA1C. Similarly, LDL level was also highest in group III with a significant difference with other two groups (P <0.05). Also, a positive correlation (Correlation coefficient 0.64, P <0.05) was observed between LDL and HbA1C. On the other hand, HDL was lowest in group III as compared to groups I and II (P <0.001) and a negative correlation (Correlation coefficient -0.716, P <0.001) was seen between HDL and HbA1C.
Conclusions: Dyslipidemia is less prevalent in diabetics who have better glycemic control.

Chronic pain is a serious issue that affects millions of people worldwide. Although Opioids (pain killers) are thought to relieve the pain they are often associated with side effects. Researchers from the university of Arizona have made a breakthrough discovery wherein they found that exposure to green LED lights mitigates chronic pain.
The principal investigators involved in the study are Drs. Mohab Ibrahim and Rajesh Khanna. They carried their experiments on three groups of rats suffering from Neuropathic pain.
Group I - Rats are placed in plastic containers with green LED lights attached to them. So the rats were exposed to direct light for eight hours a day for a period of five days.
Both Group I and Group II rats that were exposed to green light showed more tolerance for temperature and tactile stimulus when compared with rats fitted with opaque lenses. There were also no side effects observed in the rats and the pain relieving effect lasted for four days.
Researchers say that, although the LED lights are responsible for pain relieving effects the mechanism by which it is done is not clear. They believe green light increases the level of natural circulating opioids (pain killers) in rats bodies and that may be the reason behind the pain relieving effect in rats.
To check the effects of Green LED lights in humans researchers are conducting a small randomized double-clinical trial for 10 weeks in people suffering from fibromyalgia, a common source of chronic pain. So far the results are promising and the therapy worked well in both males and females.


For some parents this is the most challenging time, their sweet, cooperative, chatty child turns into a grumpy, withdrawn, stressed stranger whose social arrangements change on a moments notice or no notice. As a parent you may feel that you have lost your influence and your way.
It is a time of intense growth both biological and emotional, our teenagers seem to be under more pressure at school than ever before, navigating the world of social media driven peer relationships, they may have a gloomy outlook about their future chances of owning a home, google mental health issues and wonder about gender identity. The ability to be able to listen to them, calm our own worries, encourage and allow them to make their own mistakes whilst stepping in when necessary can be a tricky balance.
Many parents find it helpful to come and talk through their personal challenges and find a way through together with their teen. Sometimes parents will come with their child and find the way together. And sometimes it is of benefit for the teenager to come for therapy themselves. I can help you decide what will work best in your particular circumstance.

How San Francisco became a home for Los Shucos and the Guatemalan hot dog tradition
By Paolo Lucchesi on May 9, 2014 at 4:08 PM

The story of Los Shucos Latin Hot Dogs — now open on 22nd Street in the Mission District, between Bartlett and Mission — begins in the early 1980s at El Liceo Guatemala, an all-boys school in Guatemala City. Or rather, it begins outside of the school.
The interior of Los Shucos in San Francisco, Calif., is seen on Thursday, April 14th, 2014. Photo: The Chronicle
There, legend has it that a rickety, wooden street cart began serving the boys after-school snacks of American hot dogs topped with Guatemalan ingredients, namely avocado and repollo (cabbage). The boys quickly named hot dogs "shucos" — "dirty dogs." Despite the moniker, the cart was such a monetary success that they soon multiplied across the city. Decades later, they are now ubiquitous in Guatemala City, and to this day, the maxim goes that you can't replicate a shuco in your own home.
"One cart sells 1,000 a week and you can only find them in Guatemala City," says Sofia Keck. "And you cannot make one at home the way they make it on the street."
Keck should know; her father was one of those El Liceo Guatemala schoolboys who frequented that very first shucos cart. […Pause for dramatic effect.]
The exterior of Los Shucos in San Francisco, Calif., is seen on Thursday, April 14th, 2014. Photo: The Chronicle/John Storey
So this is the point where we shift the story to San Francisco's Mission District. About a year ago, or thereabouts, Keck was walking down Mission Street with her husband when they stumbled upon Pollo Campero, the Guatemalan fried chicken chain.
"I said, 'Oh my god they're opening a Pollo Campero! Now all we need is a shucos cart,'" says Keck. Her husband had a simple response: She should open one herself.
The challenge: If it was already impossible to replicate a shuco in Guatemala City, how could she do it 3,000 miles away in the Bay Area?
She decided to start by putting in her research. She went to Guatemala and she worked at a shocus joint. She told them her plan, and they showed her the way. She took notes, she learned the finer points of the dirty dog: The avocado is smashed, not turned into guacamole. The mayo is not pure mayo, but blended with cream to lighten it. The meat needs a hint of smoke. The chimichurri-like salsa chapina — made only by a small company there — is crucial.

Then there's the bread. In Guatemala, Keck describes the bun as a humble bread — light, plain, sturdy, and with a short shelf life, thus necessitating daily baking. It's the opposite of American hot dog buns, which are dense and sweet and are sure to survive the apocalypse alongside Twinkies. Importing bread from Guatemala wasn't an option, and all the sausage bun options she found in San Francisco were, well, too fancy and too good.
She finally found the solution: Partner with a local Guatemalan bakery — she prefers to keep the name confidential — for a bespoke bread, made by hand every morning and available only at Los Shucos. When ready to serve, she toasts it to a perfect char to ensure that they stay sturdy enough to handle the onslaught of sauces, refried beans and even scrambled eggs that any of her hot dogs entail. And it works.

Los Shucos Latin Hot Dogs opened in February.
(Of the name, Keck notes: "Initially Los Shucos was Guatemalan hot dogs but my intent is to bring other Latin flavors as well, so that's why it's 'Latin Hot Dogs.")
It's open throughout the day, and until 2:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday evenings. Buoyed by a strong product (the hot dogs are really, really good) and plenty of strong buzz, Los Shucos has unexpectedly become a hit out of the gates.
There are only a few mismatched seats in the shoebox of a space — two lawn chairs, some milk crates, a red bench, and two sidewalk cafe tables — but Los Shucos has already been a way for Keck to share a slice of Guatemalan culture with the Bay Area.
"Up to this point, I didn't have a plan on how I wanted to go. But the response has been so significant, with people coming all the way from Hayward and San Jose," says Keck. "And it's not only for Guatemalans that I'm fulfilling this sense of nostalgia, but also non-Guatemalan market that likes the experience."
"We don't claim to have any culinary expertise, but it's good grub."

Post-script:
Remember how Keck mentioned the key component of the shucos down in Guatemala City is the salsa chapina?
Turns out that the special salsa is only made by this tiny company there. In fact, the company is so small that they don't export their delicious green sauce. Of course, that didn't defer Keck, who froze buns to bring them back to America in order to figure out how to reverse engineer them.
When Los Shucos opened, Keck had a full supply of the salsa chapina at the shop, brought to San Francisco in her luggage. Upon opening, two hot dogs featured the sauce: the best-seller El De La Foto ("the one in the picture") and a second one she nicknamed "The Dirty Old Man" (made with sliced Spanish chorizo, avocado, cabbage and salsa chapina).
"The Dirty Old Man was very, very popular but we were running out of the sauce very quickly, so I decided that we could only have one special hot dog [with the salsa chapina]" she says. "And I couldn't take the other one, El De La Foto, off the menu, because it was in the photo."
So after a month, the Dirty Old Man was taken off the menu to converse the salsa. But Keck says that they'll still make it for customers in the know who ask for it by its new name — the Dirty Old Secret.

Not only is hummus one of my go-to snacks…when it's REALLY crunch time - it's a whole meal! I LOVE chickpeas (ceci beans/garbanzo beans - everyone calls them something different). They are my all-time favorite bean, form of protein AND fiber! And they're ridiculously versatile. From snacks to full meals to baking - I stock about 6-8 cans per week in my pantry! No joke! I'll roast off at least 2 of them to make my crunchy ceci beans. Cook dinner with another 1-2. And others will find their way into salads and baked goods!
Chickpeas are packed with fiber and protein (almost in equal parts!), and low in fat so they help keep you feeling full for hours! That makes them a great weight loss food! And all that fiber helps aid digestion (i.e. makes you go!) AND helps to regulate blood sugar! Plus they help lower cholesterol!
Then we add in that tahini which helps support your skin AND muscles! That's because it's a healthy fat (balancing the lack of fat in the chickpeas). Now we've created a well-balanced snack that's sure to keep you satisfied!
And of course we need something to DIP into our hummus! Pita chips are the natural go-to (although raw veggies work really well also!). But those fried, processed chips have a fair amount of extra "stuff" in them. And in this area, finding a good quality pita bread isn't hard. Like any bread, the ingredient list should be limited. Flour, water, salt - nothing you can't pronounce or have never heard of. From there, we just add on some heart-healthy olive oil and mineral rich sea salt and roast them off for perfectly crunchy chips!
Watch the video and get the recipe below!
Preheat the even to 400°. Line a baking sheet with foil. Cut the pita into 8 triangles. If you want thinner chips you can peel the 2 layers of pita apart.
Spray the foil with olive oil and place chips in a single layer on the foil. Then spray the top of each chip with more oil. Season everything with salt & pepper to taste.
Bake for 4-5 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and flip the chips. Bake another 4-5 minutes until crisp. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine chickpeas, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, salt & pepper. Blend until smooth.
With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in olive oil until desired consistency is reached.
Spoon hummus into a bowl. Top with more olive oil and a sprinkle of smoked paprika. Serve with pita chips and fresh veggies!

North Korea expels BBC news team who 'insulted the country's dignity'
By Ailis Brennan 9 May 2016
Rupert Wingfield-Hayes "spoke ill of the system and the leadership of the country"
Authorities in Pyongyang have expelled the BBC's Tokyo correspondent Rupert Wingfield-Hayes and his news team from North Korea, on the grounds of "attacking the DPRK system and non-objective reporting".
According to BBC News reports, following Wingfield-Hayes' midweek report on a trip made by Nobel prize laureates to a children's hospital in North Korea, the BBC correspondent was detained for three days and questioned for eight hours, along with producer Maria Byrne and cameraman Matthew Goddard.
O Ryong Il, the secretary general of North Korea's National Peace Committee said that the team's "disrespectful" report "spoke ill of the system and the leadership of the country".
On visiting the children's hospital, Wingfield-Hayes remarked that the patients looked "remarkably well, and there isn't a real doctor in sight". He also commented that "everything we see looks like a set-up."
According to the BBC's Seoul correspondent Steve Evans, speaking on Radio 4's Today programme, detailed that Wingfield-Hayes was stopped at Pyongyang airport as he attempted to take his scheduled flight from North Korea. He was then questioned at a hotel for eight hours.
"The chief interrogator introduced himself by saying: 'I'm the man who prosecuted Kenneth Bae,'" Evans said. "Kenneth Bae was a missionary who was given 15 years hard labour."
Wingfield-Hayes was then made to sign a statement by North Korean authorities.
"We are very disappointed that our reporter Rupert Wingfield-Hayes and his team have been deported from North Korea after the government took offence at material he had filed," said a BBC spokesman.
"Four BBC staff, who were invited to cover the Workers Party Congress, remain in North Korea and we expect them to be allowed to continue their reporting."

The original Wasteland (currently available DRM free with a few tweaks for modern PCs on GoG.com) was one of the first games where your actions had a decided, and persistent, impact on the game world. While there was a solid plot in place, you were more or less free to do as you wished – plenty of time to goof around as the paragraph above states.
Released in 1988, Wasteland has had a steady following, garnering praise from critics and gamers ever since. The original game was something of a mix between Ultima-style overland exploration and Bard's Tale style interaction and combat, which makes sense. After all, The Bard's Tale was another Interplay title released three years earlier.
The similarities in both instances are quite apparent, and represented the state of the art in computer RPGs at the times these games were released. (The back of the Wasteland folio – Electronic Arts used to sell their games in what looked like record album packaging back in the day – actually lists the Bards Tale and Deathlord as comparisons for the game systems. Deathlord does indeed feature a similar overland style, but it only takes up the left half of the screen. The comparison was probably made because Deathlord was also published by Electronic Arts, while Ultima was not.) The screenshots above are all from the Commodore 64 versions of the games.
Wasteland included a physical book of paragraphs was used to provide narrative that would have been difficult or impossible to do in-game at the time. It wasn't the first game to use this approach – the Temple of Apshai, released in 1979, used printed room descriptions to supplement the even simpler graphics of the time. But Apshai's descriptions were strictly that – descriptions of the rooms, traps, and treasures in the game, and not used to describe events and NPC interactions. The Wasteland paragraph book was also seeded with false information and fake plots to prevent simply reading the story right out of the manual. This approach put the game's plot front and center compared the many CRPGs of the time that relied on short snippets of in-game text to convey their stories – long cutscenes simply weren't practical given the limited storage space available on the distribution medium of the time – the 5.25″ floppy diskette.
Oddly, though, despite it being ranked among the best games ever made by several publications there was never a true sequel to the game. Electronic Arts originally intended Fountain of Dreams to be a sequel to Wasteland, but abandoned that idea before it was released. None of the Wasteland development team worked on Fountain of Dreams, and the storyline was unrelated. Interplay themselves worked on a sequel entitled Meantime, but development was cancelled before the game was released. Meantime was to be set in the same universe as Wasteland, but with an unrelated story.
In 1997, Interplay released Fallout, which it described as a "spiritual successor" to Wasteland. Because Electronic Arts held the rights to Wasteland, and was apparently uninterested in releasing a sequel, Fallout was created as a separate (and obviously very successful) franchise.
Still, "It's not over when it's over". In April 2012, InXile entertainment, a company founded by ex-Interplay head Brian Fargo, completed a Kickstarter campaign to develop a true sequel to Wasteland – Wasteland 2, with 61,290 backers contributing a total of $2,933,252 to the cause. The campaign's original goal of $900,000 was more than tripled, and the scope of the game expanded a bit with the additional available funds.
Now, two years later, we are approaching the end of the beta period for Wasteland 2 (which is available on Steam as part of the Early Access program.) The beta is currently in its eighth major update, and each new code push continues to refine the game systems, sometimes bringing sweeping changes either as new systems are implemented or due to player feedback.
I've never seen a development team as interactive and responsive to the feedback of the fans as InXile has been during the development of Wasteland 2. Backer input has been taken into consideration during the design and implementation throughout the development process. In fact, InXile and Unity teamed up to establish the Wasteland2 Asset Store Threedee Experiment (W.A.S.T.E.) which crowd-sourced 3D artwork for inclusion in the Wasteland 2 game.
Of course, the last twenty six years have seen quite a bit of advancement in the state of the computer-game art, and as you would expect Wasteland 2 is looking pretty terrific. In a beat-up, run-down, nuclear devastation way.
You will also run into some familiar faces. At least some of default pre-generated characters from Wasteland appear (perhaps all four, and I just haven't seen them yet.) "Snake" Vargas now leads the desert rangers, and Angela Deth offers to join your party early on – and can be a big help in the potentially brutal battles you will face once you leave the safety of the Ranger Center.
While paper-based paragraphs are a thing of the past, dialog is still a huge part of Wasteland 2. There is some voice acting in the game, but only a small fraction of the dialog in the game has voice-over. Sticking mostly with on-screen text has allowed InXile to make the game very reactive to what you decide to do in a way that pre-recorded dialog never could. New routes through encounters and situations can be introduced all the way up to release without needing to keep voice actors on speed dial.
Wasteland 2 also manages to keep the central tenants of pen-and-paper RPGs intact, with a wide variety of skills available to your characters that really let you customize them. And skill use goes beyond simply adding additional dialog choices to conversations (though it does that as well.) With the right skills, you can avoid enemy raiders in the wilderness, spot hidden objects, repair equipment in the world, and countless other things. Your path through the game will certainly be influenced by the skill sets of the characters you choose to bring along.
Combat in Wasteland 2 is turn-based and tactical, very similar to Fallout, with Action Points dictating how much a character can accomplish during their turn and the need to regularly reload weapons. Cover and positioning also play an important role in combat. Be careful about positioning a melee character behind someone another one of your characters is shooting at. The enemy might just dodge and let you blast your buddy.
InXile has just announced that Wasteland 2 will be released at the end of August, 2013. All of the locations in Arizona are available in the beta now, which comprises about half of the area of the final game. As with the original, there is certainly no way you will experience everything the game has to offer in a single play through. Maybe not in a dozen. Will there be a Wasteland 3? It's too early to tell, of course, but even without one, remember: It's not over when it's over.
