In Pakistan, Pashto is spoken as a first language by about 35-40 million people – 15.42% of Pakistan's 208 million population. It is the main language of the Pashtun-majority regions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and northern Balochistan. It is also spoken in parts of Mianwali and Attock districts of the Punjab province and in Islamabad, as well as by Pashtuns who live in different cities throughout the country. Modern Pashto-speaking communities are found in the cities of Karachi and Hyderabad in Sindh.
Urdu and English are the two official languages of Pakistan. Pashto has no official status at the federal level. On a provincial level, Pashto is the regional language of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and northern Balochistan. The primary medium of education in government schools in Pakistan is Urdu, but from 2014 onwards, the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has placed more emphasis on English as the medium of instruction. English-medium private schools in Pashto-speaking areas, however, generally do not use Pashto.

Review: Countdown to College

Countdown TO College is a wonderful resource for parents and their children to help them through the critical time from the end of high school through the beginning of college. It provides a thorough guide, keen insights, and practical advice for navigating this important transition.”—Sanjeev R. Kulkarni, dean of the faculty, Princeton University
“Finally, an excellent book about the college-entry process after admissions! This book is unique because it recognizes how both students and parents have to understand and confront together every detail of college finances, academics, social life—in short, the college experience as a whole. With remarkable detail, Rinere describes what parents need to do and how prospective students should prepare for college. Her lucid and accessible prose clarifies the process by drawing our attention to issues we might never have considered. Rinere uses powerful anecdotes to explain exactly how carefully we need to plan for our children’s futures. In short, she demystifies college for students and parents. This book should be read by every parent of a prospective college student, but it is also especially important for first-generation and disadvantaged families.
Beautifully written, incredibly helpful, it will become widely read.”

professor of sociology, UC Berkeley

Review: Abdul Qadir Khan Khattak

Da Abdul Qadir Khan Khattak Deevan consists of Abdul Qadir Khan Khattak pashto poetry, Abdul Qadir Khan the son of Khushhal Khan Khattak, and brother of Ashraf, was born in the year AD. 1652, and is the most eloquent writer and poet of all Khushhal’s sons, several of whom were poets of no mean ability.Although his father had little reason to he very partial towards his sons generally, on account of their very unnatural conduct, and unfaithfulness towards himself on too many occasions; yet, upon the whole, Abd-ul-KIadir appears to have been a favourite, and to have shared considerably in his father’s affection.

Abdul-Qadir was as good at the sword as at the pen; and in the battle with the Mughal troops at Kottah a place in the vicinity of the Peshawar district, the victory of the confederate Afghans was chiefly owing to the skill displayed by the poet on that occa-sion; and it was he also who led the assault against that fortress, which, after three hours of severe fighting, he captured. He after-wards distinguished himself, in like manner; in the war of Bangash, during which operations he was wounded; and the successes gained in the war were celebrated in his name. When his father abdicated the chieftainship of the tribe, and the sons were each struggling to supplant each other, and grasp the vacant authority, Abdul-Qadir did not hold back.

Review: Borha aur Samandar

Borha aur Samandar is Urdu translation of Old man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. the urdu translated version is written by Shahid Hameed. Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21, 1899 – July 2, 1961) was an American journalist, novelist, and short-story writer. His economical and understated style—which he termed the iceberg theory—had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction, while his adventurous lifestyle and his public image brought him admiration from later generations. Hemingway produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and he won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. He published seven novels, six short-story collections, and two non-fiction works. Three of his novels, four short story collections, and three non-fiction works were published posthumously. Many of his works are considered classics of American literature.
Shortly after the publication of The Old Man and the Sea (1952), Hemingway went on safari to Africa, where he was almost killed in two successive plane crashes that left him in pain or ill-health for much of the rest of his life. Hemingway maintained permanent residences in Key West, Florida (in the 1930s) and Cuba (in the 1940s and 1950s). In 1959, he bought a house in Ketchum, Idaho, where, in mid-1961, he shot himself in the head.

Review: Applied Statistics

Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers is written by Douglas C. Montgomery, This is an introductory textbook for a first course in applied statistics and probability for undergraduate students in engineering and the physical or chemical sciences. These individuals play a significant role in designing and developing new products and manufacturing systems and processes, and they also improve existing systems. Statistical methods are an important tool in these activities because they provide the engineer with both descriptive and analytical methods for dealing with the variability in observed data. Although many of the methods we present are fundamental to statistical analysis in other disciplines, such as business and management, the life sciences, and the social sciences, we have elected to focus on an engineering-oriented audience. We believe that this approach will best serve students in engineering and the chemical/physical sciences and will allow them to concentrate on the many applications of statistics in these disciplines. We have worked hard to ensure that our examples and exercises are engineering- and science-based, and in almost all cases we have used examples of real data—either taken from a published source or based on our consulting experiences.

Review: Munshi Prem Chand

Majmua Munshi Prem Chand Afsaney is a collection of Short Stories written by Munshi Prem Chand, Munshi was born on 31 July 1880 in Lamhi, a village located near Varanasi (Benares) and was named Dhanpat Rai ("master of wealth"). His ancestors came from a large Kayastha family, which owned eight to nine bighas of land. His grandfather, Guru Sahai Rai was a patwari (village land record-keeper), and his father Ajaib Rai was a post office clerk.
His mother was Anandi Devi of Karauni village, who probably was also his inspiration for the character Anandi in his Bade Ghar Ki Beti. Dhanpat Rai was the fourth child of Ajaib Lal and Anandi; the first two were girls who died as infants, and the third one was a girl named Suggi. His uncle, Mahabir, a rich landowner, nicknamed him "Nawab" ("Prince"). "Nawab Rai" was the first pen name chosen by Dhanpat Rai.Premchand is considered the first Hindi author whose writings prominently featured realism. His novels describe the problems of the poor and the urban middle-class. His works depict a rationalistic outlook, which views religious values as something that allows the powerful hypocrites to exploit the weak. He used literature for the purpose of arousing public awareness about national and social issues and often wrote about topics related to corruption, child widowhood, prostitution, feudal system, poverty, colonialism and on the India's freedom movement.

Review: Archetecture in 1990s

For economic, technological and historical reasons the period between 1985 and 1995 will be remembered as one of fundamental change in art and architecture. The 1980s were of course a time of economic excess, when "Golden Boys" ruled the financial markets, and record prices were paid even for insignificant work of art. Easy money and uncritical demand went hand in hand to boost construction and to encourage a closer link between a certain conciousness of fashion, and artistic and architectural creativity. This was all to end for reasons linked to such events as the october 1987 collapse of the New Yark stock market, or the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989. In a new climate of doubt and economic restrictions, architecture would be obliged to take New Forms.

Review: A Paragraph from Book

When I first heard about ‘body language’ at a seminar in 1971, I became so excited about it that I wanted to learn more. The speaker told us about some of the research done by Professor Ray Birdwhistell at the University of Louisville, which had shown that more human communication took place by the use of gestures, postures, position and distances than by any other method. At that time I had been a commission salesman for several years and had undergone many long, intensive courses on selling techniques, but none of these courses had ever mentioned anything about the non-verbal aspects or implications of face-to-face encounters. My own investigations showed that little useful information was available on body language and, although libraries and universities had records of the studies done on it, most of this information consisted of closely set manuscripts and theoretical assumptions compiled in an objective manner by people who had little or no practical experience in dealing with other human beings. This does not mean that their work was not important; simply that most of it was too technical to have any practical application or use by a layman like myself.
