Abdul Sattar Edhi: Pakistan’s Guardian Angel Who Lived to Serve Humanity
The Man Who Lived Only to Serve: The Extraordinary Life of Abdul Sattar Edhi BY: Khan There are people in this world who rise above the ordinary—people whose purpose in life is defined not by wealth, fame, or power, but by a burning desire to ease the suffering of others. Such people erase the boundaries of language, caste, tribe, culture, and religion. Their compassion becomes a beacon of hope, a guiding star for entire nations. One such remarkable figure from Pakistan is Abdul Sattar Edhi, a name that has become synonymous with humanity itself.

Uncovering the Impossible: Giant Skeleton Stuns Archaeologists
When the first images appeared online—a massive, human-like skeleton partially buried beneath layers of ancient soil—most people assumed it was another internet illusion. But what happened next pushed the discovery far beyond the realm of fantasy. A team of independent researchers, accompanied by local workers and eyewitnesses, confirmed that something extraordinary had been found. The skeleton was not only enormous in size but disturbingly well-preserved, with bone structures that resembled humans in every way—except scale.

The Story of the Marshall Plan
The Story of the Marshall Plan If you close your eyes and imagine Europe in 1945, you won’t see postcard cities or shining lights. You will see ruins. Entire streets cracked open like broken eggshells. Bridges collapsed into rivers. Families searching for missing relatives. Fields that once grew wheat now growing silence.

Old School Tech: Five Ancient Inventions We Still Can't Figure Out
When we picture our ancestors, it’s easy to imagine them living a simple life, free from the complexity of modern technology. Some of us might even think that anything they invented back then could be easily replicated, or even improved upon, with today's knowledge. But hold that thought. As it turns out, there are several ancient inventions that we are still genuinely struggling to understand or fully replicate today. It really makes you wonder how "advanced" we truly are.

The Fire-Proof Giants: How Dinosaurs Survived the Age of Burning Earth
The Fire-Proof Giants: A New Look Into the Hidden World of Dinosaurs BY: Khan Children, you have surely heard the name dinosaur. Whenever we imagine the largest, strongest, and most terrifying animals to ever walk the Earth, the first picture that forms in our minds is that of these gigantic creatures. They vanished millions of years ago, long before the first humans appeared. Some scientists believe they died because food became scarce. Hungry and weak, they slowly slipped into extinction. Others argue that a catastrophic shower of meteors, comets, or blazing stars falling from the sky ended their reign, burying them under ashes and debris.

Let's Talk About Today’s Effects of Colonial Racism and Superiority Complex on an Ordinary Joe in SADC. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
Colonial borders and centuries of imposed hierarchies did not just shape maps; they shaped lives. Over 110 years ago, the line between Namibia and Southern Angola was drawn, scattering communities, breaking lineages, and uprooting people from their ancestral heartlands. For ordinary people across the SADC region, these historical wounds are not distant memories. They echo in daily life, in lost opportunities, in social exclusion, and in the subtle but persistent superiority complexes that still linger in workplaces, schools, and social spaces.

Ancient Aliens or Ancient Indians?
The standard history we all learn is pretty clear: the Wright brothers successfully launched the first airplane in 1903, and the first space shuttle came much later, in 1976. That’s the official story. But what if human history's timeline for flight is completely wrong? What if incredibly advanced planes and spacecraft were zipping around thousands of years ago, and they were even more sophisticated than the technology we have today?
