اس تصویر میں ایک شخص بھی موجود ہے / فوٹو بشکریہ لیو بولین

بظاہر  ایک دکان کی اس تصویر میں کچھ بھی غیرمعمولی نہیں۔

مگر اس میں ایک شخص آپ کی آنکھوں کے سامنے موجود ہے جو ہوسکتا ہے کہ نظر نہ آئے۔

یہ ایک آرٹسٹ لیو بولین ہیں جن کو انسانی گرگٹ بھی کہا جاتا ہے۔

دنیا کے مختلف مقامات پر وہ خود کو پس منظر میں ایسے گم کرلیتے ہیں کہ ان کو دیکھنا مشکل ہوجاتا ہے۔

وہ اپنے جسم اور ملبوسات کو پس منظر کے مطابق پینٹ کرلیتے ہیں جس کے باعث سرسری نظر میں انہیں دیکھنا ممکن نہیں ہوتا۔

عام طور پر کسی ایک منظر میں خود کو چھپانے کے لیے انہیں جسم کو رنگنے میں 10 گھنٹے لگ جاتے ہیں۔

دنیا کے متعدد مقامات پر انہوں نے اس آرٹ کا مظاہرہ کیا ہے۔

ان کے مطابق یہ ایک طرح کا احتجاج ہے اور اس طرح وہ ظاہر کرتے ہیں کہ بااختیار افراد کی نظر میں ہماری کیا اہمیت ہے۔

یہاں آپ انہیں دیکھ سکتے ہیں / فوٹو بشکریہ لیو بولین

It’s a common misconception that Earth’s distance from the sun causes the seasons. While it’s true that Earth’s orbit is slightly elliptical, meaning it’s closer to the sun at some times (perihelion, in January) and farther at others (aphelion, in July), this difference in distance has a very minor effect on temperature.
The primary reason July is the hottest month in the Northern Hemisphere, even though Earth is farthest from the sun, is Earth’s axial tilt.
Here’s why:
* Axial Tilt: The Earth is tilted on its axis by approximately 23.5 degrees relative to its orbital plane around the sun.
* Direct Sunlight: In July, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the sun. This means:
* More direct sunlight: The sun’s rays hit the Northern Hemisphere at a more direct, perpendicular angle. This concentrates the solar energy over a smaller area, leading to more intense heating.
* Longer daylight hours: The Northern Hemisphere experiences longer periods of daylight, giving it more time to absorb solar radiation.
* Indirect Sunlight (Southern Hemisphere): Conversely, in July, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun. This results in indirect sunlight (rays hitting at a more slanted angle) and shorter daylight hours, leading to winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
Think of it like this: Imagine shining a flashlight directly onto a surface versus shining it at an angle. When the light hits directly, it’s more concentrated and intense. When it hits at an angle, the light is spread out over a larger area, making it less intense. The same principle applies to sunlight and Earth’s tilt.
While the distance difference (being at aphelion in July) does mean Earth receives slightly less total solar energy, this effect is minuscule compared to the impact of the axial tilt on how directly and for how long sunlight hits a particular hemisphere.

In India, the punishment for rape is outlined in the Indian Penal Code (IPC), particularly under Section 376. The severity of the punishment can vary depending on the specific circumstances of the crime.
Generally, if an individual is found guilty of rape, the punishment is:
* Rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than ten years, but which may extend to imprisonment for life, and shall also be liable to fine.
However, there are stricter penalties for specific aggravating circumstances:
* Rape of a woman under sixteen years of age: Rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than twenty years, but which may extend to imprisonment for life (meaning imprisonment for the remainder of that person’s natural life), and a fine.
* Rape of a woman under twelve years of age: Rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than twenty years, but which may extend to imprisonment for life (meaning imprisonment for the remainder of that person’s natural life), and with fine or with death.
* Gang Rape: Rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than twenty years, but which may extend to imprisonment for life (meaning imprisonment for the remainder of that person’s natural life), and a fine. If the victim of gang rape is under twelve years of age, the punishment can also be death.
* Repeated rape by the same person: Rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than ten years, but which may extend to imprisonment for life (meaning imprisonment for the remainder of that person’s natural life), and a fine.
* Rape causing death or persistent vegetative state: Rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than twenty years, but which may extend to imprisonment for life (meaning imprisonment for the remainder of that person’s natural life), or with death.
The fine imposed in all these cases is intended to be just and reasonable to meet the medical expenses and rehabilitation of the victim, and is paid to the victim.
It’s important to remember that these are the possible punishments if found guilty, and the legal process involves investigation, trial, and judgment based on the evidence presented.

Aleema Khan is the sister of Imran Khan, the founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party. While she doesn’t hold an official, elected position within the formal leadership structure of PTI (such as Chairman or Secretary-General), she plays a significant role as a close confidante and representative of her brother, particularly during his imprisonment.
Her activities within the party often involve:
* Conveying Imran Khan’s messages and directives: She frequently speaks to the media outside of Adiala Jail, where Imran Khan is imprisoned, delivering his instructions and views to the public and party members. This includes announcing protest plans and discussing the party’s strategies.
* Advocacy for Imran Khan: She is a prominent voice in highlighting the conditions of his imprisonment, claiming he is being denied basic facilities and legal rights.
* Political statements and commentary: Aleema Khan makes public statements on various political issues, often reflecting the party’s stance and criticizing the government or other political entities. She has, for instance, commented on a “minus-Imran” campaign, later clarifying it referred to the government’s attempts to isolate her brother.
* Allegations of power struggles: Reports indicate that she has been involved in internal power struggles within the PTI, particularly concerning her attempts to consolidate power and her relationship with Imran Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi.
In essence, Aleema Khan acts as a key informal leader and a crucial communication channel for Imran Khan, especially given his current incarceration.

Captain Iman Durrani is a Pakistan Army officer who has gained significant social media attention due to a recent “fiery speech” or “motivational speech” that went viral.
