Aviation Fuel gets Cheap, NATO Supplies resumed through Air


US Ambassador to Pakistan Cameron Munter has said that Aviation Fuel has got cheaper than Diesel Fuel and as a result NATO Supplies have resumed through Pakistani Airspace.

When asked if it were true that despite the blockade of road routes for NATO Supplies for Forces stationed in Afghanistan, Pakistan’s Airspace was being used to provide for them, Munter acknowledged and said, "You are right".

The NATO Supply Routes were blocked following outrage in Pakistan after the 26th November Salala Outpost Attack, in which twenty-six (26) Pakistani Soldiers raised Martyrdom in NATO Shelling. The US was also made to vacate Shamsi Airbase, which was being used for Drone Strikes in Pakistan.

Legality of Ajmal's Action


Pakistani Offspinner Saeed Ajmal has sparked confusion over the Legitimacy of his Bowling Action due to a combination of language difficulties and scientific misunderstanding.

Saeed Ajmal, the Chief Destroyer in the famous 3-0 Whitewash upon England in the Test Series in the United Arab Emirates, sparked confusion in the aftermath of the Third Test by appearing to suggest that the ICC had given him special dispensation to straighten his arm beyond the fifteen (15) Degree Tolerance Range.

However, Saeed Ajmal's Action is well within the ICC Range of Tolerance. While he does bowl with a bend in his arm, it does not straighten more, on average, than about eight degrees.

The figure of 23.5 Degrees mentioned by Ajmal is the average angle of his arm at the beginning of delivery.

The ICC put Ajmal, along with other bowlers, under constant scrutiny and evidence suggests that there has been no significant deterioration in Ajmal's action since he was tested in 2009.

Contrary to widespread belief, Ajmal's Off-Break and Quicker Ball actually cause his arm to straighten more - though only a fraction more - than his much-debated Doosra.

Moreover, the accident to which Ajmal referred took place on a bus while he was on Pakistan Duty. The ICC suspect, however, that the unusually high elbow abduction - the angle at which the forearm leads from the elbow - has been with him from birth.

Doctors of Death suspended by Supreme Court


The famous Doctors of Death, Finance Minister Dr Abdul Hafeez Sheikh and Petroleum Minister Dr Asim Hussain, along with twenty-eight (28) other Members of Senate, National Assembly and Provincial Assemblies have been suspended by the Supreme Court of Pakistan.

The Supreme Court ordered the suspension of all those Legislators who were elected in By-Polls conducted by an Election Commission without meeting the criteria of the Eighteenth (18th) Amendment.

However, the Government changed the status of two key Cabinet Ministers affected by the order, including Finance Minister Dr Abdul Hafeez Sheikh and Petroleum Minister Dr Asim Hussain, to Adviser & Assistant.

Both Ministers were known as Doctors of Death, for playing role of Death Executioners by their deadly policies.

"We are disappointed; these members should have refused perks and privileges themselves when the parliament is yet to legitimise their election," observed a special bench comprising Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, Justice Khilji Arif Hussain, Justice Tariq Parvez and Justice Sarmad Jalal Usmani.

Top Ranked England Dusted in the Desert of Arabia


The England Cricket Team has been Dusted in the Desert by Pakistan, as Pakistan duly completed their first Clean Sweep against England in a Test Series at United Arab Emirates. An extraordinary achievement for a side with no home to call its own, a side that lives out of a suitcase and does it rather well. Along with the socks and the toothpaste they certainly unpacked quite a shock for the Top Ranked Side, England.

After the hefty series loss, England's Captain, Andrew Strauss description, as "The Final Frontier," has proved as Unconquerable as ever.

The Sunny Disposition of Saeed Ajmal, the Man of the Series, and the Stiff-Limbed Tenacity of Abdur Rehman dusted England to the end. They shared forty-three (43) wickets between them in a Three-Test Series and England barely played a shot in anger.

Aitzaz on verge of losing another Premier's Case


Senior Advocate of Supreme Court of Pakistan, Barrister Atizaz Ahsan is all set to lose another Prime Minister's Case in his otherwise bright Legal Career. Atizaz has counseled Former Premiers Benazir Bhutto and Mian Nawaz Sharif in lost Cases, and now Atizaz is on the verge of losing another Case while defending Prime Minister of Pakistan Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani in Contempt of Court Case.

Indeed, a Legal Record!

In the Contempt of Court Case against Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani, the Supreme Court concluded its preliminary hearings and has decided it has sufficient cause to indict Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani and frame Contempt of Court Charges against him.

"After the preliminary hearing, we are satisfied that Prima Facie there is enough grounds for further proceedings," the Supreme Court stated.

Earlier, Atizaz has lost Cases of Former Primer Minister Benazir Butto in 1990 and 1996 against the Dismissal of her Government by President Ghulam Ishaq Khan and Sardar Farooq Khan Leghari respectively.

Having previously lost Cases in defense of Benazir Bhutto, in 2001 Atizaz lost Case in defense of Former Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif.
