Going for Your Dreams

Contrary to what most people believe, I honestly do think that we were put on this earth to fulfill our dreams.That little dream in our heart.Everyone has one. At least I'd like to think so.But quite the opposite to spending every waking moment trying to find our dreams, most of us prefer to bury our head in the sand and forget about it.But dreams are a funny thing. If we don't try to fulfill it, it becomes like a bitter pill inside us, it makes us sad and angry in the process.And so when others come to us with their dreamsand their hopes, we can't relate to it with admiration because we're still nursing our pain from our failed attempt.So what do we do?We admonish them for being so naive and tell them to get a real job.We break their hearts and their spirit. And is it because we don't believe in them, or that no one deserves a chance to fulfill their dreams, seeing as we didn't get a chance to live ours?We tell them the opposite of what they really needto hear.We should be telling them, 'Yea, go for it'.Go for it. Because what's the worse that can happen? You spend years of your life doing something you love, a little bit everyday, or you daydream about it instead? You watch with regretwhile someone else does what you're not willing to endure?How could that ever be right?If everyone played it safe, then there would be no books to read, no music to listen to and no explorers and adventurers who discovered the world.The world would be a dull, small and safe place.Even if it's just a hobby, wouldn't you rather spenda little time each day doing something you love than not doing it at all and just churning up insidebecause you live with regret.Regret is a terrible friend.And every one of us has a purpose, a call, a vocation. The road is a narrow one, hardly travelled, risky and dangerous. At many times it doesn't even make sense.Many will drop off along the way, give up, turn back, call it a day.But the one thing that should keep all of us going is the feeling we get when we accomplish some part of our dream.That feeling, no matter how brief, is the greatest feeling in the world.Francesco Emmanuel is a classically-trained guitarist who is madly in-love with the electric guitar.

Boomers Do a Career Encore at Nonprofits

Here's news for you if you're a nonprofit leader. Baby Boomers are not quitting. Some want to replenish their finances after the financial downturn. Others understand we live at a vibrant time of social good. Boomers want to earn money and give back. A job in the nonprofit sector makes a lot of sense.A few days ago I got a call from an old buddy of mine who was transitioning into the nonprofit sector. I thought he was going to retire, but he said he was taking a job with a small health organization on the east coast. I congratulated him and he joked around about having to work forthe rest of his life.According to Bureau of Labor, employment in thenonprofit sector grew between 2007 and 2012. Let's remember our economy imploded in 2008. Even including that difficult time, employment increased by 8.5 percent in the nonprofit industry.Wages also rose. The private sector contracted during the same period by 3 percent.It makes a lot of sense for nonprofit boards and leaders to look at Boomers who are transitioning out of the corporate world to join their organization. There are a number of good reasons to consider a seasoned professional.*.Corporate America understands it has to strategically incorporate meaningful CSR into their businesses. That means executives who volunteer at nonprofits are aware and active regarding social impact. These executives also know the importance of being engaged with their communities through nonprofits.*.I've said it in my books. The philanthropic landscape is changing. It's not what it used to be. Generally speaking, nonprofits operated in their own world. For-profits were in another world. Today, that dynamic is quickly shifting to a more coordinated back and forth between the two. All you have to do is take a look at social enterprises, for example. You see the marriage of profit and social impact. You can also look at philanthrocapitalism, which is the desire by philanthropists to find market-based solutions to societal issues. There's been a shift in discussion and there's more of a discussion happening.*.As a society, we're living longer. We're also healthier and Boomers are leading the charge inredefining what it means to get older. It used to be that society defined "old age" as approximately 60-65. I think if you said that today, you'd get a chorus in the room telling you you're dead wrong. As a matter of fact, a new study found that Americans believed "old age" began at 80. In other words, you might get your Social Security check in your early 60's, but that's not old age.There are a few key reasons your nonprofit may want to consider hiring a Boomer.1.If they're seasoned professionals, they probablyhave a lot of experience to give. As a matter of fact, many upstart organizations, including Google and Facebook have had seasoned business people come on board to help the young innovators when they were young organizations.2.Older workers typically give instant credibility. Although the world seems to be focused always on the new, young and cool generation (currently the Millennials, but soon to be supplanted by Generation Z), having older employees on your team does help outsiders know that you have people on board who've"been there and done that."3.If you walk throughmy office, you're going to see diversity. I'm very proud of that, but I also believe it's a smart business decision. I want to know what men, women, old and young people think. A diverse team brings me much better ideas and a broader view of making our work better.Author of "Not Your Father's Charity: Grip & Rip Leadership for Social Impact" (Free Digital Download)© 2016 Wayne Elsey and Not Your Father's Charity.

صلاح الدین ایوبی رحمہ اللہ کی وفات کے تقریباً پچاس سال بعد ہی ایک طرف تاتاری مسلمانوں پر اللہ کا عذاب بن کر ٹوٹے۔

صلاح الدین ایوبی رحمہ اللہ کی وفات کے تقریباً پچاس سال بعد ہی ایک طرف تاتاری مسلمانوں پر اللہ کا عذاب بن کر ٹوٹے۔
تو دوسری جانب حشیشین کا زور بہت زیادہ تھا، صلاح الدین ایوبی تو ان کے تین کاری واروں سے اللہ کے فضل سے محفوظ رہ گئے تھے لیکن بعد میں آنے والے دور کا کوئی اچھا انسان حشیشین کے وار سے نہ بچ سکا۔
ادھر تیسری جانب یورپ میں بڑے زور و شور سے تیسری صلیبی جنگ کی تیاری کی جا رہی تھی۔
یہ وہ حالات تھے جب مسلمانوں کے پاس کوئی راہ فرار بھی نہیں بچی تھی، تاتاریوں سے لڑنے کا حوصلہ تھا نہ صلیبیوں کا سامنا کرنے کی قوت۔۔۔ جو اچھا حکمران آتا حشیشین کے ہاتھوں شہید ہوجاتا، غرض اسلامی دنیا تین بڑے طاغوتوں کے رحم کرم پر تھی۔
اسلامی قوت کا مرکز بغداد ہلاکو خان کے ہاتھوں تاخت و تاراج ہوچکا تھا، حشیشین ایک بڑے علاقے پر قابض ہوکر اپنا کام کر رہے تھے، اور عکہ اور دوسرے ساحلی علاقوں میں موجود صلیبی قلعوں کے سردار یہ تمام خبریں یورپ پہنچا چکے تھے اور وہاں ایک بڑا لشکر بیت المقدس کو واپس لینے کی تیاری کر رہا تھا۔
بظاہر مسلمانوں کی طاقت و قوت ختم ہوچکی تھی دنیا کے ظاہری تمام اسباب ان کے مخالف تھے لیکن اسی وقت اللہ کی رحمت جوش میں آئی اور مسلمانوں کو ایک امیر ملا، ایک ایسا گوہر نایاب جو خصوصیات کے لحاظ سے "آل ان ون" تھا۔
جنگ کے میدان میں وہ جہاں کا رخ کرتا دشمنوں کی صفوں کی صفیں زیر و زبر کردیتا، تو سیاست میں اس کا ثانی تاریخ پیش کرنے سے قاصر ہے، جاسوسی میں اس قدر شاطر کہ بذات خود دشمنوں کے حالات تن تنہا بھیس بدل کر معلوم کر آتا۔
اسی سیاسی تدبیر سے اس نے صلیبیوں کو بغیر جنگ کیے شکست سے دوچار کردیا تھا۔
رازداری میں اتنا ماہر کہ حشیشین بھی عاجز آگئے۔
صلیبیوں کی شکست کے بعد اس نے فلسطین کے ساحلی علاقوں سے صلیبیوں کے تمام قلعے مسمار کر کے ان کے سارے خواب چکنا چور کردیۓ۔
تاتاریوں کو نہ صرف میدان جنگ میں عبرت ناک شکست دی بلکہ علماء کو تاجروں کے بھیس میں تبلیغ کیلئے بھی روانہ کیا، جس کے نتیجے میں تمام تاتاری قوم مشرف با اسلام ہوئی۔
حشیشین پر اچانک حملہ کرکے ان کے تمام قلعے مسمار کر دیئے اور کے ہر چھوٹے بڑے افسر کو قتل کرکے انہیں ماضی کی ایک کہانی بنا دیا۔۔۔
سلطان کو دنیا کی کافی زبانوں پر عبور حاصل تھا، جن میں پشتو، پنجابی، عربی تاتاری اور انگریزی قابل ذکر ہیں۔
وہ فقط چوالیس سال کی عمر میں اس دنیا سے کوچ کرگیا، لیکن اس وقت تک دنیا کا نقشہ بدل چکا تھا، اس کے مختصر دور حکومت کے بعد مسلمانوں کا گذشتہ ماضی کا دور دوبارہ شروع ہوچکا تھا اور کل کے مجبور و بےبس مسلمان اس وقت ایک بڑی طاقت بن چکے تھے۔
یہ کہانی ہے مصر کے عظیم حکمران سلطان رکن الدین محمود بیبرس کی، جنہیں اگر صلاح الدین ثانی کہا جائے تو بے جا نہ ہوگا۔

IMF for better taxation of agriculture sector

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has recommended that the tax policy reforms must introduce presumptive taxeson agricultural turnover and land-based tax rates for better taxation of agricultural sector, common rate schedule of Capital Gains Tax regime (CGT) for all financial assets and integration of GST regime (goods and services) with a single statutory rate under one collection agent to increase revenue collection.This has been proposed in an IMF paper, titled ''''Unlocking Pakistan''''s Revenue Potential'''' prepared by Serhan Cevik. According to the paper, despite a significant progress in recent years, Pakistan''''s tax revenue remains low relative to comparator countries and the tax effort expected for the country''''s level of development. The empirical findings indicate that a tax system with low elasticity cannot take full advantage of economic growth. Accordingly, unlocking revenue potential is dependent on broadening the tax base, strengthening administration, and rationalizing tax policy across all levels of the general government.The paper states that the tax revenue-to-GDP ratio increased by 2.4 percentage points over the past three years to 12.4 percent of GDP in 2016, but it is still significantly below Pakistan''''s tax potential. This reflects a plethora of factors including narrow tax bases, generous tax concessions and exemptions, weak and fragmented revenue administrations, and structural features of the economy. Relative to comparator developing countries, Pakistan''''s tax system is complex and fragmented. Although Pakistan''''s constitution assigns significant revenue responsibility to the provinces, provincial governments'''' own revenues contribute only about 8 percent of total tax revenues. The composition of taxrevenues is highly skewed towards indirect taxes, which accounts for about 63 percent of federal tax revenue, while the extensive use of tax concessions and exemptions results in a distortionary and unfair tax regime. Consequently, while Pakistan''''s estimated tax effort-the ratio between actual revenue and tax capacity-improved from 0.43 in 2011 to 0.56in 2016, it is still significantly below the average of comparator developing countries (0.64) and high-income countries (0.76).The paper maintained that Pakistan''''s tax system with low elasticity fails to take advantage of economic growth to a greater extent. Without continued reform efforts, Pakistan cannot realistically raise its tax revenue to around 15 percent of GDP in the foreseeable future.While Pakistan has the potential to double its tax revenue-to-GDP ratio over the long term, the empirical findings presented in this paper indicate that realizing the country''''s tax revenue potential requires further concerted and well-defined efforts at the federal and provincial levels aimed at broadening tax bases, strengthening tax compliance across all sectors of the economy, and eliminating distortionary tax concessions and exemptions, and addressing structural challenges of fragmented tax administrations. These fundamental changes would not only boost the country''''s tax revenue-to-GDP ratio and thereby create resources for growth-enhancing priority spending, but also improve the perceived fairness of the tax system.Strengthening tax administrations across all layers of government is key to sustainable revenue mobilization. To improve taxpayer compliance and curb tax avoidance and evasion, reform efforts must aim to modernise and bolster the effectiveness of tax administrations at federal and provincial levels by reorganising along functional lines, integrating databases and information technology, and requiring a tax identity number in all financial and immovable property transactions. This would also help deal with the potential problem of using remittance transfers as a mean of tax evasion. Cross-country figures indicate that there is also astrong relationship between the tax revenue-to-GDP ratio andbusiness climate and corruption.The paper recommended that FBR and provincial revenue administrations should fully implement a risk-based auditing system focusing on taxpayer non-compliance risks, defined as the likelihood of yielding large amounts of audit adjustments and penalties, and increase tax fraud penalties and make tax evasion a criminal offense. Fighting tax evasionshould initially focus on a comprehensive list of high-wealth individuals and corporate entities they control and prohibit the so-called "benami" transactions, which are commonly used for tax avoidance and evasion. It is also important for the Ministry of Finance to enhance analytical capacity by establishing a tax policy research and analysis unit-outside the FBR-to improve revenue forecasting and upgrade the quality of fiscal policymaking.The paper recommended that tax policy reforms must aim toincrease revenue yield, while improving the fairness of the taxregime. Direct taxes can be designed better for enhancing efficiency and equity. In the case of PIT, with the tax exempt income threshold set at almost four times per capita income, a significant share of employed people does not pay any income tax at all. Accordingly, reducing the tax exempt income threshold, widening tax brackets, adopting more progressive and lower tax rates, and rationalizing concessions and exemptions would not only reduce distortions and increase revenue yield, but also improve the fairness of the tax system. This sense of social justice is key to boosting tax morale and thereby tax buoyancy. In this context, while the FBR has made improvements in the capital gains tax regime, there is still a need to adopt a common rateschedule for all financial assets and eliminate exemptions.It further recommended that simplifying the CIT regime and reducing concessions and exemptions are necessary to pave the way for lower rates while enhancing revenue yields, whichwould also help in improving the economy''''s international competitiveness. Introducing presumptive taxes on agricultural turnover and land-based tax rates adjusted according to productivity characteristics of agricultural land can facilitate better taxation of the agricultural sector on a progressive scale with an appropriate threshold to protect low income farm households.Modernising recurrent property taxes, on the other hand, can be achieved by establishing a central fiscal cadastre and a central valuation agency and adopting a market-based valuation methodology. The paper further recommended integrating the GST regime (goods and services) with a singlestatutory rate under one collection agent, and eliminating GST exemptions, zero-ratings, and special schemes to attain greater efficiency in indirect taxes.Changing the structure of federal and provincial excises to advalorem rates in a unified manner for domestically produced and imported goods can maximise the revenue yield and better address negative externalities associated with some products such as tobacco and petroleum products, the paperrecommended.News SourceNews Collated byPAKISSAN.comCourtesy www.brecorder.com

Relationships: Why Do Some People Think That They Always Know Best?

While there can be moments when one is in a position wherethey do know what isbest, there are also going to be momentswhen this is not the case. It could be saidthat this is simply part of being human.If, on the other hand, one was perfect, then there would be no reason for them to have moments when they don't know what is best. Therefore, there will be no need for one to feel bad when thishappens.Certain AreasStill, this is not to say that one won't have a certain area where they generally know what they are talking about. This could relate to their profession, and when someone asks for their advice, there is a strong chance that they will have something valuable to share.Even so, they could still emphasis that this is still their opinion and that it can't be taken as the complete truth. Through having this approach, it can allow the other person to ask other people what they think.A Number of AreasHaving said that, one may have a good understanding of a number of different areas, andthis could mean that they have a lot to share. Oneis then not going to be limited to one area and this may allow them to stand out in a number of different environments.But just like in the example above, they could still stay grounded and not let what they know to go totheir head, so to speak. So not only will the peoplethey come into contact with appreciate what they have to say, they will also appreciate how they present themselves.AdviceAnd while they may give unsolicited advice from time to time, it may primarily be something that takes place when they are asked for it. What this can then show is that one has good boundaries and that they don't try to walk over others.As a result of this, it can stop their relationships from being out of balance, and this is partly due to the fact that they won't act like they are a teacher. The people around them are then at theirlevel as opposed to being their students.IntentionWhen they live their life in this way, it can show that one enjoys learning and that they don't learn about things in order to elevate themselves above other people. They might believe that knowing certain things give them an edge, but this is not going to be the same.It could then be said that one is highly curious, and that they love to learn about things whilst there are on this planet. They will then be only toohappy to listen to what other people have to say.Two SidesOne could believe that they are not only a teacher,but that they are also a student. It is then not going to be all about what they have to share, andthey will realise that the people they come into contact with will have plenty to share with them.Yet even though this can sound like the ideal way to be, it is not going to be how everyone experiences life. Instead, one can believe that they always know what is best for other people.OmniscientIt then might not matter what is taking place or what someone is going through, as they will have the right answers/s. In addition, it could be irrelevant as to what the other person knows or what they have been through, for instance.One is then going to be in a superior position and just about everyone else is going to be below them. Other people are then going to wonder howit is possible for someone to be so deluded.On A PedestalThere could also be people around them who believe that they do know everything, and this could then cause them to look up to them. When this takes place, it might not matter what one comes out with as they will simply believe it.Through having these people around, one will have a steady stream of support, and this will help to validate what they believe about themselves. What this is likely to show is that these people lack self-belief and this then causesthem to idealise others.A FacadeIt would then be easy to say that one is the complete opposite and this is why these kinds of people are in their life. However, although one comes across as though they are above other people, this is likely to be a way for them to avoid how they really feel.Thus, while these people will be in touch with what is taking place within them, one will be completely alienated from their inner world. And as a way to feel to better about themselves, they have created a false-self.Healthy ShameThrough doing this, one will not only be out of touch the toxic shame that is within them, they will also have lost touch with their healthy shame.This then sets them to believe that they are more-than human, and it will then normal for them to believe that they always know what's best.There may have been a time in their life where they were made to feel completely worthless, andthis could have been during their early years. They then disconnected from their true-self and created a false-self in order to handle what took place.AwarenessUnless one is willing to face what is taking place within then, there is not much chance of them changing. As far as they are concerned, it is likelyto be other people who need to change.If they do want to change, it might be necessary for them to work with a therapist. During this time, they will be able to get in touch with their true-self and to let go of the false-self that they have used to protect themselves.Prolific writer, author, and coach, Oliver JR Cooper, hails from England.

Shading Techniques in Art

Shading is the technique of showing tones or values on an object through gradual gradations for it to look 'solid' and have a three dimensional effect. Shading techniques allow you to weave layer upon layer of pencil marks to add a convincing form to your line drawing. Shading adds a sense of substance to your subject and produces a convincing tonal relationship. Drawings take on a three dimensional form when shaded properly.To render shades correctly on drawn objects, the artist must carefully observe the source of light that is striking various values of tones or shades on the drawn objects. After realizing the source of light, the artist must study closely the reflections of the light on areas of the objects to know the lightest and darkest sections. After establishing the endpoints or extremes thus the lightest valued areas as well as the darkest valued areas, the remaining area with a mid-half tone between the two extremes is the middle value.The tones are adjusted as many times to make it look realistic. It is advised that artists step back periodically to look at the drawing and the subjectin a distance to view and adjust the tones accordingly. This would make the values depicted on the drawn objects more realistic. In the rendition of cast shadow, the artist must take note of the light source and the striking or reflection of the light on the objects. If the light is far above, the shorter the shadow is (try checkingout your shadow at noon - 12:00PM) whereas the lower the light, the longer the cast shadow will become. The rule is that the darker the shadow, the brighter the light source. As the shadow is drawn further from the object, the lighter it becomes. The shadow takes on the shape of the item it comes from. Notice that to make the shadow, all you have to do is create a triangular shape from the top of the object to the ground and back to the base of the object. According to the light source, make your shadow fit accordingly.There are various ways of rendering shades on a drawn object. Some of these are:1. Hatching: This is a shading technique that employs one set of line either vertical, curved or horizontal lines in rendering shades on a drawn object. These lines are drawn beside one another to give the illusion of a value. Depending on the hatching shading effect one want to achieve, the artist may decide to make the individual lines in hatching sets far apart or close together.2. Cross-hatching: This is a shading technique made by the use of lines that crosses each other at an angle in rendering shades on an object. In cross-hatching, one set of line crosses over (overlaps) another set of line to create a shade ona drawn object.3. Stippling/Dottilism/Pointillism: This is a shading technique that employs dots or series of points in rendering the shades on an object.4. Circularism/Squirkling/Scribbling: This is the use of circles, squirkles and scribbles in rendering a shade on an object. When squirkle sets have noticeable spaces between the lines, they work beautifully for shading various textures,such as fuzzy fabrics and curly hair. Squirkles can look like a solid tone when the lines are drawn closely together, and are great for shading lots of different aspects of people, including skin tones.5. Tonal gradation/smudging: This is the rendering of soft tones on a drawn object and blending the tones together with the thumb, a piece of paper or a soft cloth.Rendering shades on objects using any marking or drawing tool is an interesting practical exercise in art. However, to achieve successes, artists must learn the rudiments in shading so as to render shade on drawn objects based on the accepted rubrics of art.If you want interesting information on visual art education, history of art click the link below:http://ezinearticles.com/expert/Dickson_Adom/2315408Article Source:http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Dickson_Adom/2315408

Things You Never Knew About Bearings

They won a bike raceA few months after the bearing was first patented in France, James Moore took home first place in the world's first bike race. This may be because of his superior skill, but most have attributed it to the new products that were put in place on his shiny new bicycle.Bearings were bombedDuring the second World War, many countries that were bombing Germany began to target the bearing factories. Bearings were used for a variety of things that were considered necessary to winningthe war, and manufacturers made a decentamount of money off of them. These were vital to Germany during the war, especially if they wanted to have a chance at winning.When the bearing factories were destroyed, it gave the other team an advantage.They are all around youThese products may not seem that interesting, but these little round products help make the world go around. They can easily be found in clocks, microwaves, refrigerators, washing machines and hundreds of other products. Even bar stools and office chairs use these products to help them function correctly. They are used to hold up the transmission in a car, and to make sure that many appliances work correctly. From linear ones to ball ones, they help make everything work like it should.Used to build the pyramidsIt is believed that these products were used to help transport the large blocks thatwere used to construct the ancient pyramids of Egypt. This one fact was pondered about by scientists for years as everyone wondered how the average man was able to get such large blocks to the structure, and then get them to the top of the building. The answer lies in the way that these products were used in ancient times, long before warehouses were shipping them all over the world.Romans had them firstWhile knowing that Egypt used them is impressive, the Romans were using them first. One was found on a sunken ship years ago, and it has been dated to have been in existence since approximately 45 AD.There are hundreds of different typesFor example, linear bearings are available in different sizes, and the linear ones are designed to allow motion in one direction. Unlike the linear styles, there are also products that allow motion in a circular direction, specific designs that hold tons of weight and so on. Some linear bearings are made of metal while other linear ones are made of ceramic. There are literally hundreds of these types of products available, and they all have a certain design or feature that makes them different from the rest.They are more circular than the EarthIf an individual were to take one of these circular products and expand it, it would beperfectly round. When compared to the Earth, this product would be more circular than our planet.Whether learning about these for the next project, the first project or for school, the topic can be a bit dry at times. Remembering these interesting facts will give any individual both the break from dry material and the motivation needed to make it through more material in order to find the perfect product for their project.VXB began in the bearing industry in 1958, and since then they have seen many changes. This once small store has expanded to include massive warehouses that are stocked with millions of products that are ready to be shipped out, and an online store that makes finding the ideal bearing easier than ever before. They pridethemselves on now working with three of the best bearing manufacturers in the industry: Nachi, NB and FYH. They have provided a toll free number for anyone thathas any questions, or if someone simply needs assistance in determining which type of bearing is right for their project. This can be found on their website. Visit Us:http://www.vxb.com/Article Source:http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Sam_Iskander/1979115

Floriculture share in global market negligible

Despite a huge potential of producing good quality of flowers,the country's floriculture share in the international market is negligible. This was stated by University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF) Vice Chancellor Professor Dr Iqrar Ahmad Khan while presiding over the inaugural session of seminar titled "Prospects of bulbous flower production" in Pakistan. It was organised by the Institute of Horticultural Sciences in collaboration with Green Works, Lahore.The Vice Chancellor said that changes in lifestyle and better standards of living had boosted up the requirement for the floriculture products. He said the country was facing the challenge of unemployment and poverty. The floriculture industry will provide employment to labour at a massive scale. He also called for promoting floriculture, especially in our country to get the foreign exchange. He said that flower production had jacked up in Faisalabad, Sheikhpura, Kasur, Okara, Sahiwal, Chunian and Gujrawala.Dean Faculty of Agriculture, Professor Dr Riaz Ahmad said that investment in the floriculture sector can get maximum profit by making the product value-added. He said that northern areas have very rich flora and germplasms, which have not been exposed to the world. It can not only increase our floriculture industry but also help alleviate the poverty. Managing Director Stoop Flower Bulbs, Holland) Kees van Der Plas said that such seminars and collaborative academia-industry workshops would help flourish this emerging segment of horticultural industry.Director IHS Dr Muhammad Amjad said that the country was blessed with the tremendous resources so there is the need to tap the potential. Dr Iftikhar Ahmad, CEO Green Works Lahore Saleem Ahmad, Assoc Professor Dr Atif Riaz, Dr Adnan Younis, Dr Iftikhar Ahmad and other notables also spoke on the occasion.News SourceNews Collated byPAKISSAN.comCourtesy www.brecorder.com
