What Pahela Baishakh means to me… 
                          Shamma M. Raghib 
                          Pahela Baishakh to me is endless hullabaloo of colors, cheerful kids running around in pretty garments, birds dancing in the cool breeze, the sun shadowed by a whisk of dark clouds, only to light up the sky now and then.  |

                          There is some disagreement whether the great seat of learning once situated in Takshashila can be considered a university in the modern sense of the term.

                          Nancy Reagan was heartbroken over Charlton Heston's death. President Bush hailed him as a "strong advocate for liberty," while John McCain called Heston a devotee for civil and constitutional rights.  |
