Cool it, Pakistan
Is anyone wondering how any Pakistani government can lead the country out of our current economic morass, whether led by the current favoured coalition or a future alternative? Can I suggest some unconventional thinking about climate? Not the political climate, the real one – the one that’s inexorably warming, year by year. Andrew Kamarck was probably not the first to notice that most hot countries are poorer than colder ones.
Kicking a cheap energy addiction: Part - II
What are the options for Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and his team? What Finance Minister Ishaq Dar has not mentioned is the high cost of electricity distribution and the need to account for the future replacement costs as wires corrode, transformers melt down and insulators fall apart. By focusing only on generation costs, he is blind (and blinding Pakistan’s citizens) to the real magnitude of the financial crisis in the electricity sector.
Kicking a cheap energy addiction: Part - I
Pakistan’s economy rests precariously balanced between populist politicians and the IMF along with sovereign lenders impatient with a country addicted to huge energy subsidies. With just weeks of foreign currency reserves left to buy fuel for power stations and other necessities, the State Bank of Pakistan has been forced to tightly control its dollar holdings.
Intricacies of engineering
The Taj Mahal, Badshahi Masjid and Wazir Khan Masjid and many other examples of Islamic architecture have inspired generations with their beauty and grandeur. These structures also reflect the work of Islamic engineers in the form of foundations, cement, structural details, roof beams, trusses, water supply and drainage and so many other details.
Satellite cellular backhaul is at the forefront of modern connectivity solutions
James Trevelyan, Senior Vice President of Sales, Enterprise and Emerging Markets at Speedcast. Of all the things this last year has taught us, the importance of the internet particularly stands out due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. While everybody isolated to protect themselves and others, the internet allowed mission critical communications to continue and for the rest of us to carry on with a somewhat ‘normal’ life; our homes became our offices and businesses went online.
Why You Should Revolutionise Industrial Operations With IoT
As the Internet of Things (IoT) grows in popularity, managers are quickly beginning to realise the huge impact this technology has on Return on Investment (RoI), productivity and efficiency.

Commentary: The world is hungry for green cooling solutions. Thankfully, Singapore is pioneering them
SINGAPORE: Climate change is often seen as a threat to human existence and the chief emitters of greenhouse gases the villains. Take air conditioning, for instance, which enabled Singapore to become the thriving commercial and financial hub of Southeast Asia but contributes a significant proportion to carbon emissions.

Review: Red Doc> by Anne Carson
Canadian writer Anne Carson has a back catalogue that marks her as one of the most distinctive voices working today. A prize-winning poet, essayist, translator and Professor of Classics, her 2010 collection Nox pushed the boundaries of poetry publication: an elegy and lamentation for her brother, Nox came encased in a box, printed on a single sheet folded like a concertina.
Poetry Review: Six Children by Mark Ford
The title of Mark Ford‘s third collection is taken from Walt Whitman’s admission, late in life, that “Though unmarried I have had six children”. The consequent poem’s six stanzas imagine the six women Whitman “waylaid” and the resulting offspring, the father hoping “some day, all together, we will stride the open road”. It is this act of remembrance and unearthing that Ford maintains as a focus throughout the book. This is a collection of cataloguing and resurrection.
Review: Division Street by Helen Mort
Division Street must be one of the most anticipated debut collections in some years. Helen Mort won the Foyle Young Poets award five times, received an Eric Gregory Award in 2007 and the Manchester Young Writers Prize in 2008. In 2010, Mort became the youngest ever Poet in Residence at the Wordsworth Trust, and her second pamphlet, a pint for the ghost (tall lighthouse), was a Poetry Book Society Choice.
