The Pakistan day

The Pakistan Day

The fourteenth of August is the Pakistan Day which we celebrate every year with great pomp and show. It was on this very day in 1947 that Pakistan was placed on the map of the world. This event has no parallel in the history of the world. Muslims rejoiced and the world wondered.
It was really a pleasure to see the celebrations of the First Pakistan Day at Karachi on the 14th of August 1947. The precesion was to pass at 12 noon through bunder road on its way to the assembly hall. The shops and streets were decorated. Huge arches were set up. Man stood waiting on both sides of the road. Women and children waited on the balconies of the lofty buildings. House tops were filled with spectators. There was a flood of human souls everywhere.
At 12 a few military and police officers passed on motor cycles. Then followed the military band. It played the national song after so many years of bondage. Then followed the carriage driven by the horses with lord Mountbatten seated on the right and Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah on the left. The last governor general of India had come to hand over the charge of Pakistan to its first Governor General the Quaid e Azam.
As soon as the people sighted their beloved leader they cheered clapped and shouted Allah o Akbar Quaid e Azam Zindabad Pakistan Paindabad. In the next carriage came Lady Mountbatten and Miss Fatima Jinnah. All applauded them.
Then ministers followed in their cars. Soldiers followed next. Some marched with measured steps. Others came in military trucks. The navy in its uniform followed in trucks. They were all shouting Quaid e Azam Zindabad Pakistan Zindabad. Perhaps for the first time in their lives. They were able to express publicly what they so much longed for. This made people realize what change had been brought about.
The procession marched to the assembly hall. The Quaid e Azam was sworn in as the first Governor General of Pakistan We celebrate this day every year. Pakistan day begins with prayers. Then guns are fired. Shops are decorated with Pakistan flags. Military paraded are held in important towns. Processions are taken out. Alms are distributed. At night the house tops are lit up with thousands of lamps. Ilimination and fireworks shown how happy the Pakistanis feel. It is a day of thanks giving and great rejoicing. All make up their minds to see Pakistan free and prosperous for all times to come Pakistan Zindabad.

What is the keyboard shortcut key to display the 3D?

Windows Vista has two modes to switch from one application to another: the classic mode (which displays a miniature view of the application rather than its icon), and a mode called "Flip 3D" tilt windows applications by a movement of rotation in 3 dimensions.

To activate Flip 3D, use: The key combination [Windows] + [Tab] (in this instant you exit the Flip 3D mode when you release the Windows key). Or the [Ctrl] + [Windows] + [Tab] (in this mode to the PC remains in Flip 3D mode after releasing the [Windows] until you select a window).

Tip one: once the Flip 3D mode activated, press [Down Arrow] or [Right Arrow] to scroll through the applications forward. [Up Arrow] or [Left Arrow] to scroll through the applications to the back. You can also use the mouse wheel to scroll through windows. Remember that the switch uses classical him, the key combination [Alt] + [Tab]. Note: Some old keyboards do not have the [Windows] button.

Make multiple selections in Windows Explorer

You probably know that it is possible to select multiple files in Windows Explorer by holding down the [Ctrl] key while you click on the files. But the handling sometimes leads to false movements requiring any re-select ...

We have more to offer:

From Windows Explorer, click Organize and then Folder Options. Go to the "View" tab. Scroll down the list "Advanced Settings" to the end and check the “Use the checkboxes to select items”.

Therefore, whenever the mouse flies over a file, a check box appears, allowing you to select multiple files without using the keyboard. This is particularly useful in display list mode.

Increase performance easily

The real performance hit in Windows Vista is within its power management settings. In the advanced settings, there are spots to set the minimum and maximum CPU speed. Even on "high performance" the minimum isn't set to 100%, so to fix the problem, either create a custom profile or just edit the "high performance" profile to have a minimum and maximum CPU speed of 100%. This will cause Vista not to slow the CPU down, so you will have ultimate performance. Vista runs better and there is a noticeable responsiveness to it when the CPU setting is fixed. This setting is good for desktops and laptops on plugged in power. Adjust as needed for laptops on batteries, but that should be on a separate power profile, anyway.

Pakistan Day Celebration

Pakistan Day Celebration

     It was the 14th of August when the Muslims of the subcontinent were able to get a land of their own, where they could live life according to their religion. 14th August 1947, Pakistan gained Independence after remarkable efforts made my Mr. Muhammad Ali Jinnah who was a man of great caliber and had the belief that Muslims could only live happily when they would own a country led by their own people and a country that would be according to the ideology of Islam. The Muslims of the subcontinent gave many sacrifices for several years as they were not allowed to practice their own religion with freedom as they were the minority. However, the efforts made by people like Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Allama Iqbal and Sir Syed Ahmed Khan made sure that their sacrifices did not go in vain and they were able to provide the Muslims an independent homeland.

      Independency day for any country is like a festival and the people of Pakistan celebrate this festival with enthusiasm and joy. They unite together under the green and white flag of Pakistan and rejoice their happiness with friends and family. People from all over the country have different ways of celebrating the Independence Day. Some people dress up in green and white to show their love for the country while others visit national monuments like Minar-e-Pakistan and Quaid-e-Azam's Mausoleum. Many people also use this opportunity to meet up with relatives and give gifts to their loved ones.

     Children also enjoy this day to the fullest. There are functions arranged across all schools in the country where children sing national songs, dress up in green and white and enjoy scrumptious meals. They do not have regular classes on this day which allows them to have free time off due to which children look forward to the Independence Day. There is also a trend in many homes to decorate their houses with flags and paper flags and from adults to children everyone participates in doing the decorations. Such is the spirit of the people of Pakistan as patriotism runs in their veins.

     It is necessary that people of the country pay tribute to their heroes as it was only their efforts which allowed them to have an independent nation. The people of Pakistan also remember and pay tribute to those who dedicated their lives to earn freedom for them. A change of guard ceremony is conducted on the national monuments of the country including the mausoleum of Muhammad Ali Jinnah the founder of Pakistan and at the Mausoleum of Allama Iqbal who was also the father of the ideology of Pakistan. There are various Independence Day programs aired on the television throughout the day and multiple concerts held during night time in various parts of the country.

     Although the people of Pakistan celebrate the Independence Day with patriotism and great passion, they should remember what Jinnah's dream was and they should always questions themselves whether they have made this country according to his dreams or they have forgotten the reason for the formation of Pakistan.
