History of Pakistan

True History of Pakistan
By Ameera Kamal

Introduction

Pakistan lies in the North Western part of South Asia. It is bordered by China in the North, Afghanistan in the North-West, Iran in South-West, Arabian Sea and Indian Sea in the South and India in the East. Pakistan, as evident, is located at the crossroads of South Asia, Central Asia, and the Middle East making it an easy linking point between Central Asia and South Asia.

There have been significant immigration movements, in the areas now constituting Pakistan since pre-historic times. The people of Pakistan are descendants of different racial groups and sub-racial stocks, who entered the subcontinent over the past 5000 years, mainly from central and western Asia from time to time. Yet unlike the popular misconception, it always maintained its identity and individuality separate from its neighbor India who claimed that Pakistan was a part of Aakhand Bharat (Undivided India) on the basis of history. Hence its partition from India is totally unjustified. But thousands of years of history of the sub-continent tells a different story. It tells us that the areas called Pakistan today had consistently remained as a single, compact and a separate geographical and political entity since ancient times.

Few people would be aware of the true history of Pakistan still; few would know that the oldest stone tool in the world, dating back to 2.2 million years was found at Rabat, about fifteen miles away from Rawalpindi and the largest hand Axe was found in the Soan Valley. And to top it all, the site of the first settled life in the world dating back to the 8th millennium BC has been found at Mehergarh in the Sibi districts of Balochistan. Although Pakistan, as an independent country dates only from August 14th, 1947 and the nation itself can trace its beginnings only to a few centuries ago, yet the territories of Pakistan are heir to one of the richest and the oldest civilizations and settlements of the world.

How to Manage Your Career Risks

Dealing With the Most Important New Career Risk
By Keith Ten Brook

Making the decision to pursue a new career can be one of the most challenging and exciting times in a person's life. You look forward to the possibility of doing something you have always wanted to do, fulfilling your personal vision, benefiting others, increasing your income, or any combination of these or other benefits. You may be looking to start your own business, move into a new field that has always interested you, or go back to school to get the training needed to allow you to leverage your expertise to teach.

Is making the new career decision enough?

By the time you have made the decision to pursue a new career you likely have done the hard work to carefully think through your decision (If not or to confirm your choice, see the link below). You have spent weeks, months, or maybe years, dealing with the up and down emotions associated with making this type of life change. You have sought career guidance from friends and family, and possibly paid for professional advice. The plan is ready. Time to execute. You are ready to go.

Have you addressed the most important new career risk?

The most likely source of failure in realizing your new career is having insufficient resources to survive until your new career can pay the bills. Let's face it, as a minimum we all need food, shelter, and clothing to sustain our physical needs. How long do you expect your transition take? Even if you planned to go a year without income, what happens if you get sick and cannot work for 3 weeks, or worse? Will you have the resources to bridge the additional gap? Do you need health insurance to cover unplanned medical expenses?

Are you starting a new business? When does your business plan show you breaking even? If it takes two years to be profitable instead of one, do you have access to funding to stay in business while addressing the shortfall in revenue? Like a business that runs out of cash, failing to mitigate this risk opens you up to personal bankruptcy, or worse.

Are there better times to take on the new career risk?

During college, I learned to stretch the income I made over the summer to address my needs for the entire year. I look back and am amazed at how little I managed to live on. This certainly suggests that it should be easier to change your career when you have few obligations and have not gotten used to a more expensive lifestyle.

If you want to mitigate the risk of insufficient resources in transitioning to your new career, make changes in your lifestyle before you execute on your decision. Determine your minimum needs and try living on your minimum budget before starting your transition. This will enable you to establish how long you can likely stretch your available resources.

Have you just lost your job or experienced a major reorganization at work? Believe it or not, this may also be an ideal time to start working a new career transition. Severance benefits from a job loss can provide the additional financial resources necessary to provide the time needed to move into a new career or launch that new business. In addition, it is not uncommon for training and education resources to be provided that could reduce what you need to spend on required education for your new occupation.

Are you able to retire?

If you have established that you can afford to retire, you have already determined that you have the resources to survive, and hopefully more. This puts you in the position to have already mitigated this risk, as long as any new career investment does not substantially change your resource situation. It comes as no surprise that this is a great time to transition to a new career as your resources will allow you work on your new career until you succeed or ascertain that the new career was not what you hoped it would be.

Mitigate this risk to free yourself to focus on your new career

If you are midway through your working career and have responsibilities for other family members, this risk certainly will be a major factor that you should address prior to executing your career transition. With a well thought mitigation plan, you can be confident that you will have the resources needed to address the needs of you and those that depend on you, allowing you to focus on building your new career. Do not let this risk be the item that causes you to prematurely quit on the career of your dreams.

Flower Gardening Ideas

Dear You know that there are many varieties of flowers you can choose from depending on your preference of colors, scents and sizes. And the best thing about flower plants is that they are highly compatible with other flower so mix planting is not a problem. In fact, it is encourage to plant diverse variations of flowers if you want to achieve a great-looking flower garden.

Some flowers are easier to take care of than the others. But overall, organic flower gardening requires that you give your flower plants their basic needs: soil, water, sun, organic food and a lot of care. And for those who want to have an easier time with gardening but still want to enjoy beautiful blooms, here are some of the most popular flowers that you can easily grow in your organic garden.

You must have the right tools in order to get started. The important gardening tools include a rake, shovel, hoe, spading fork, water pot, boots, pair of sheers, pots, and gloves. These are utilized during different gardening stages like preparing the ground for plants to be planted and maintaining them in a healthy and orderly fashion. These tools can be purchased at the local gardening store and even some of the well known, "big box" stores maintain a well stocked garden section.

Many popular gardening ideas are often a result of unintentional experimentation by either an over-enthusiastic amateur gardener or an over-confident gardening veteran. Ideas like beneficial pairing of different flower types, a breathtaking colorful display of a specific combination of perennials and annuals, a modified flower container, a particular potting mix etc. are all a result of an accidental stumble upon them. However, a basic research and analysis effort is usually there before the stumbling happens.

Once you've selected your plants, you will want to dig a hole approximately double the diameter of the root ball. When you remove it from the container, lightly work your hand around the root ball to loosen the dirt pack and stimulate the roots and then ensuring that it's placed level at the soil line, place your new plant in the hole. Once inside, cover it with soil, incorporate some water and it's all done.

It is best to work in your yard when it is a bit cloudy or even on a slightly cool day since the coolers temperatures will lessen the stress on your transplants. You might also consider planting early in the morning or late in the afternoon or even early evening to achieve the same thing. Stress is certainly not good for new plantings.

I Asked Myself



I asked myself a question what is pyramid? I search on INTERNET about Pyramid. Wikipedia show me Pyramid results. Now I am sharing information with you. Pyramid is a building where the outer surfaces are triangular and converge at a point. The base of a pyramid can be trilateral, quadrilateral, or any polygon shape, meaning that a pyramid has at least four faces (base plus at least three triangular faces). The five-face square pyramid is a common version.

Egyptian pyramids
The Egyptian pyramids are ancient pyramid-shaped masonry structures located in Egypt.
In Egypt 2008, 138 pyramids discovered. Most were built as tombs for the country's Pharaohs and their consorts during the Old and Middle Kingdom periods.


The earliest known Egyptian pyramid is the Pyramid of Djoser which was built during the third dynasty. This pyramid and its surrounding complex were designed by the architect Imhotep, and are generally considered to be the world's oldest monumental structures constructed of dressed masonry.

The best known Egyptian pyramids are those found at Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo. Several of the Giza pyramids are counted among the largest structures ever built.
The Pyramid of Khufu at Giza is the largest Egyptian pyramid. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still in existence.

Education In My Country

My country “Egypt” has the largest education system in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and it has grown rapidly since 1990.Recentally Govt. of Egypt has accorded even great priority in improving the education and education system.

According to the Human Development Index (HDI),Egypt is ranked 116 in the HDI. With the help of World Bank and other multilateral organizations Egypt aims to increase access in early childhood care and education and the inclusion of ICT at all levels of education, especially at the tertiary level. The government is responsible for offering free education at all levels. The current overall expenditure on education is about 12.6 percent as of 2007. Investment in education as a percentage of GDP rose to 4.8 in 2005 but then fell to 3.7 in 2007. The Ministry of education is also tackling with a number of issues: trying to move from a highly centralized system to offering more autonomy to individual institutions, thereby increasing accountability.

In education, the personnel management needs to be overhauled and teachers should be hired on merit with salaries attached to the performance. My country “Egypt” has the largest education system in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and it has grown rapidly since 1990.Recentally Govt. of Egypt has accorded even great priority in improving the education and education system.

You Like Beautiful Arab Henna Design?

Henna (Mehndi) used in Arabic weddings. There are many styles of Henna but some styles which I like most than all other are under.






This style tends to be less detailed and intricate. its still very beautiful. Instead of having fill-ins it is just colored in boldly. Arabic mehndi designs don’t necessarily cover your hands or feet all the way. Many popular Arabic designs are vines and leaves with beautiful flowers.
