Dhaka Flow brings day-long Festival of Yoga and Wellness
Yoga is an ancient system to experience divine freedom, peace, and self-realization through physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual practices. Originating from Sanskrit, the term Yoga means “yoke” which refers to drawing, binding; or uniting together. The purpose of Yoga is to unite the body, mind, and soul, as well as the universal consciousness. A healthy mind and body lead to a healthy family, community, and city.
However, the hectic urban life in Dhaka city gives the residents little room for calmness, contemplation, or purpose. Thanks to Shazia Omar for hosting the Festival of Yoga Wellness Dhaka Flow. Let’s take a look at the host and the festival.

For more than two years, responding to the Covid-19 pandemic has been a live exercise in rapid response for these trainees, it said.
The rapid response trainings gave participants a chance to share their experiences and review lessons learnt so that they might be better prepared to tackle future outbreaks of influenza or other respiratory pathogens with epidemic or pandemic potential.
The trainings were developed and delivered by a group of epidemiologists and laboratory scientists from the Institute of Epidemiology Disease Control and Research (IEDCR) with direct field experiences in managing Covid-19, influenza and other respiratory pathogens.

Earthquake Safety: Do’s and Don’ts during an Earthquake
Earthquake is a kind of natural disaster that scientists have not yet figured out how to predict. An earthquake can destroy lives, property, cities, and civilizations at the same time. Bangladesh is at extreme risk of the earthquake as the country is unfortunately located between the Indian, Eurasian, and Myanmar tectonic plates. As a result, even moderate earthquakes can cause severe damage. While a large earthquake can cause terrible destruction of lives and structures. For survival during such a disaster, we should keep in mind some earthquake safety measures.
7 Do's and Don'ts During Earthquake
If you understand that an earthquake is happening, you must first try to stay calm to save lives and not panic in any way. Although our brains might not work properly during a disaster, we still need to stay calm and think to better handle the situation. Check the following tips.
Drop, cover, and hold-on methods
The best approach during an earthquake is the ‘drop, cover, hold on’ or ‘duck-cover’ method, as advised by the American Red Cross. That is, when the earthquake starts, sit on the floor, then get under a sturdy table or desk and take cover; choose a desk or cover in such a way that you can move with the cover if necessary.

If a building is earthquake-resistant, it rarely collapses. What happens is that various objects or furniture falling on the body is more likely to cause injury. So, to avoid them, it is important to take shelter under a hard desk or table at this time.
If you are in a wheelchair, lock or close the wheel and cover the head and neck with your hands. If in school, college, or other educational institution, students should take shelter under the hard table with a school bag on their head.
Use a pillow to support your head when in bed. You can take shelter by sitting near the inner wall of the house. Exterior walls or glass windows are dangerous. Stay away from them.
Turn off utility lines
Remember, one of the reasons for earthquake damage is gas and electrical fires. So, the gas stove in the kitchen and the electrical switches in the house should be turned off as soon as possible. Do not light the match or candle until you are sure that there is no gas leakage.

Wait until the shake stops
If you are on the upper floor, you should wait until the shaking stops. When the shaking stops, quickly go down the stairs and take a position in an open place or a safe place. Avoid jumping the stairs.
If you are in an industrial factory, hospital, market, or cinema hall, do not rush or rush in front of the door. Sit where you are with both hands covering your head. Once the shake stops, it can occur again. So, take the opportunity to get out of the building and try to move to an empty space.
If you are near the sea or river, you should take or climb a high position as soon as possible. If you are outdoors during an earthquake, take shelter in an open area away from tall trees, tall buildings, electric poles, etc.
Stop the car
If you are in a car, pull over instead of blocking the road and stay inside. Stay away from bridges, over bridges, flyovers, underpasses, trees, electric poles, billboards etc. Being outside the car is more likely to get injured. Be careful of cars rushing from behind, and keep an eye on the rear mirror.

Be prepared to deal with aftershocks
The “main shock” or main earthquake can be preceded and followed by several more mild to moderate earthquakes known as ‘foreshocks’ and ‘aftershocks’. If not careful, these can become even bigger dangers. Typically, the ‘aftershock’ of a large earthquake can last from the first hour to a few days.
Do not walk barefoot
During an earthquake, do not walk barefoot, but wear sturdy shoes to avoid injury from glass, metal, etc. Having an injury during this time will make the situation worse for you.
Do not use lifts
Stairs must be used to get down from high-rise buildings during earthquakes. Never use the elevator. When in an elevator, rush down to the nearest floor.

‘Goblin Mode’: What does Oxford Dictionaries’ word of the year mean?
Asked to sum up 2022 in a word, the public has chosen a phrase.
Oxford Dictionaries said Monday that “goblin mode” has been selected by online vote as its word of the year.
It defines the term as “a type of behavior which is unapologetically self-indulgent, lazy, slovenly, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations.”
Read: Survey finds young people follow news, but without much joy
First seen on Twitter in 2009, “goblin mode” gained popularity in 2022 as people around the world emerged uncertainly from pandemic lockdowns.
“Given the year we’ve just experienced, ‘goblin mode’ resonates with all of us who are feeling a little overwhelmed at this point,” said Oxford Languages President Casper Grathwohl.
The word of the year is intended to reflect “the ethos, mood, or preoccupations of the past twelve months.” For the first time this year’s winning phrase was chosen by public vote, from among three finalists selected by Oxford Languages lexicographers: goblin mode, metaverse and the hashtag IStandWith.
Despite being relatively unknown offline, goblin mode was the overwhelming favorite, winning 93% of the more than 340,000 votes cast.

The choice is more evidence of a world unsettled after years of pandemic turmoil, and by the huge changes in behavior and politics brought by social media.
Last week Merriam-Webster announced that its word of the year is “gaslighting” — psychological manipulation intended to make a person question the validity of their own thoughts.
In 2021 the Oxford word of the year was “vax” and Merriam-Webster’s was “vaccine.”
8 Safe Motorcycle Riding Tips for Women
Motorcycle riding has been a male-dominated hobby for almost a century, but each year an increasing number of women are starting riding motorbikes on the road. Lack of enough public transport, harassment on shared transport, high transport fare of private transport, etc are encouraging women to ride personal motorbikes. Let’s take a look at some safe riding tips for female motorbikers.
8 Safety Tips for Women Motorcycles Riders
Practice First
As more women are discovering the thrill of riding and the freedom of the open road, novice female motorcyclists may not know where to start. Many experienced riders advise novices to practice on a secondhand motorcycle before purchasing their own motorbike. Thus, if you tumble from a sharp curve or drop the bike by mistake, you will not damage a brand-new model.
Buying the Correct Bike
There are several ladies' motorbikes available on the market. However, when purchasing a motorbike, you must ensure that you can safely operate the one you pick.

Make sure the bike can handle your weight. Choose a motorcycle with a seat height and weight that are optimal for your physique. In addition to a comfortable riding posture, your motorbike should keep you near enough to the handlebars.
Don't forget to check the type of bike, engine power, safety features, suspension, weight limit, turning radius, and maintenance requirements before choosing a motorbike. Besides these, consider the durability, and resale value of the vehicle.
Become Acquainted with Your Bicycle
Regardless of the bicycle you pick, you must be acquainted with all of its components and operations. Before you can rev your engine, you must identify the start and throttle, as well as understand the clutch and brake mechanisms.
Read More: best 100cc motorbikes available in Bangladesh
Before hitting the road, familiarize yourself with the weight of your motorbike and practice balance. Adjust your bike's mirrors and seat height. However, you may need tools to modify the mirrors and seat of your motorbike. This technique is explained in the owner's handbook.
Get the Right Equipment
Obviously, you want gear that is as elegant as your motorbike, but it is also important that your gear protects you. Motorcycle riding attire demands more consideration than automobile attire. Whether you're traveling at fast speeds for miles or making many stops on the route to work, your gear should be able to protect you from the weather.
Even though no one intends to fall or have an accident when riding a bicycle, it is essential that your clothing offers the optimum cushioning just in case. Protect the impact zones of your body, including your knees, elbows, hands, and face.
Read More: Safety Gears for Motorcycle Riders: Necessity and Types
Remember that your legs and feet will be close to very hot components of your motorbike, such as the engine and exhaust pipes, so protect your flesh to prevent serious burns.
As a woman, it is essential to choose appropriate clothing for riding a motorcycle. Utilize online forums and social media groups for women riders to choose the right sizes and kinds of riding gear.
Establish a Pre-Ride Examination
As a novice rider, it can be beneficial to develop a pre-ride inspection to perform prior to each ride. This should include inspecting the following: Tires and wheels, Controls, Lights and electrical, Oil and fluids, Chassis, and Stands.

Regularly doing this pre-ride examination will acquaint you with your motorbike, making it easier to notice any potential issues. The owner's handbook for motorcycles may assist you to identify these controls and components, as well as the precise maintenance needs.
Exercise in a Secure Setting
When initially beginning to bike, it is recommended to practice on a straight, level road. A lengthy driveway or empty parking lot might provide you with the space you need to develop a feel for your motorcycle's throttle in a location devoid of other cars and people.
Once you have mastered fundamental navigation, you may begin practicing turns. Again, a wide, unpopulated, flat location is ideal for learning how to make huge turns. As you gain confidence, you may practice tighter spins that involve leaning.

At some time, as a motorcycle rider, you’re sure to have a wet ride. Utilize this secure area to practice riding in wet conditions in preparation. Wet roads are more difficult than dry roads, therefore it's essential to train in a controlled setting to get used to the slippery circumstances.
You may also take a motorcycle safety course that can teach you the fundamentals of riding a motorbike. It can also help you in the motorcycle license driving exam.
Become a Defensive Rider
All motorcyclists must possess defensive riding abilities. It is easy to find yourself in a car's blind zone on the road, particularly on fast-moving freeways. You have to keep yourself safe at all times while riding your bike and ride as if people on the road can’t see or hear you.
Read More: Top 10 ABS Motorbikes in Bangladesh
Constantly monitoring the road for possible dangers, such as potholes, gravel, and roadwork is part of defensive driving. Additionally, you should learn to foresee potential threats. Obviously, you cannot predict the future, but you must always be equipped to defend yourself and your bike.
Seek Out Other Women Riders
While motorcycle riding may be an amazing individual experience, this pastime also gives a feeling of camaraderie. Consider joining a women's motorcycle club to meet other female riders, get the guidance, and possibly acquire new abilities. Your first time driving on the highway may be less daunting if you are accompanied by a passenger.
The advice of other women riders might also help you avoid biker faux pas, such as wearing motorbike-friendly clothes or ignoring other social indications that only seasoned riders would understand.

Conclusion
After purchasing a motorbike and becoming familiar with its operation, you become a proud rider of two wheels. From purchasing a bike to hitting the road safe riding should be given the highest importance.
So far, we have discussed some essential safety tips for female motorbikers to assure a safe riding experience on road. Riding a motorcycle safely, you can not only solve your regular communication dilemma but also gather precious riding memories on vacations.
Activists target Salt Bae’s upscale London steakhouse
Animal rights activists have attacked the Knightsbridge steakhouse run by Turkish celebrity chef Nusret Gökçe, better known as “Salt Bae”.

They claimed that eight patrons sat down at tables that had been reserved at Salt Bae’s steakhouse in the upscale central London neighbourhood at around 6 pm on Saturday (December 03, 2022), Sky News reported.

A failing system is symbolised by restaurants like these, according to student Ben Thomas. While two million people in the UK are already dependent on food banks, influencer chefs are selling steaks with gold plating for more than $1,000, he complained.
“Steaks, and other red meats, that we know carry the highest environmental impacts,” he said.
A woman was seen being dragged onto the street by restaurant personnel and left to sit on the curb in a video that the protest group published.

The restaurant – one of more than a dozen Nusr-Et Steakhouse locations worldwide owned by Salt Bae – launched in the latter part of last year, and patrons were astounded by its costs right away.
Soon after the restaurant opened, a receipt from one customer was posted online. It included prices for a rack of lamb at £200, a huge tomahawk steak at £630, a Coca-Cola for £9, a Red Bull for £11, sweet corn for £12, and a “golden burger” for £100.
The steak restaurant chain was started by Nusret Gökçe, who gained internet celebrity in 2017 after appearing in a video salting a steak theatrically from a height – thus earning the nickname “Salt Bae”.
