Hanukkah is starting on Friday, followed by Christmas on Dec. 25 and the Islamic holiday of Eidul Adha on Dec.31. Is it just a mere coincidence?

Aghaaz kahin se to karna hai to kyun nah iss mazmun ke sath?

I mean, in my mind, artists are very special people. Very talented and God gifted. Besides practice and rehearsal and development of skills, imagination and creativity plays a vital role.

as salaamu 'alaykum Ok my name is John just like the director, and I have been using UNIX for well over 17 years. I have a pretty strong background with Linux, the BSDs (including Darwin), Solaris, IRIX, AIX, HPUX, Tru64, Ultrix, and others. I am not an admin, I do infosec (and I am currently looking for work in Philly, NYC, Chicago, and the Persian Gulf) and choose to administer my own systems.

Bowl of Saki for December 14 HE WHO KEEPS NO SECRETS HAS NO DEPTH IN HIS HEART.--Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L.

When one has something to say and does not say it except to whisper it (so to speak) to God, that thing is endowed with life and blessing, and if it is a wish, verily wi... Read More

What is really behind the ?Review of the Holocaust: Global Vision? conference? Throughout Western media, from the day this conference was announced until today, and for many more days to come I am sure, nowhere is this question asked: Why is this conference being held? Rather, we see a lot of fingers pointing at Mr. Ahmedine... Read More
