i have one question:
whats the best cricket shop in chittagong ?

Nafis_BD · #**202** October 7, 2007, 03:43 PM

Dhrubo, It's probably the one that Akram Khan owns or you could go to the Market where there there are a lot of sports shops and could just browse through them. I will ask my uncle today and let you know which one is the best as he is in Chittagong now and If you need any assistance then I am sure my uncle would be happy to help you guys!!

Well Dhrubo I am not sure about the name of the store but if you go to the shops and ask where Akram Khan's Cricket shop is they should know and guide you there!!

I heard the shop is pretty big and has lots of equipments but For me InterSports and Cricket Corner is the best cricket shop in Bangladesh!! If you go to Dhaka then I would suggest to go to the stadium market. You could also go to Cricket Corner, InterSports and etc.

Here is a tip for you. Don't just go to Akram Khan's store, browse through all the stores and buy from the one that has cheap but really good equipments otherwise if you just go to one store then you might get ripped off as some other store might have the same thing with the same quality for even cheaper!!

What do you need to buy anyways?? I might be able to give you some tips about the equipment!!

BTW do you play hard-ball cricket??
Good Luck and have a safe trip to Bangladesh.

You probably tried this already so it might not be of much help to you, but i had the same problem a year ago, so i just googled it up and found two sites that were of a lot of help to me:

www.calculus.net/ci2/?tag=
www.calculus.org (on it youll find links to online tutorials and textbooks)

It's not just one imam (in which case I would have ignored it) but almost every Jamaat I have been to (with english sermon) that says it usually after finishing khutba. I did a bit of google searching on this and came up with some interesting links such as this site and a google says more but haven't had time to go through any of them yet.

Is $60 worth shaking Dr. Yunus's hand? I need to decide my Monday morning.

Kabir · #**210** October 10, 2007, 10:29 AM

For shaking hands? I don't think so. For being able to chat for 5 mins, I DO think so.

Now, the question is a different one if you're spending that money on ticket to get inside an event, or ticket to travel to a place to meet him. If it's $60 for traveling, it's probably worth it. But I wouldn't pay $60 to get into an event just to shake his hands.

Where will you meet him? Arkansas? Or some other city?

It all depends....

for exmaple:

Is it American dollar or Singapore Dollar.. or....

Or is this hand shaking going to happen just after he washed his hand or just after he poked his...

ialbd · #**213** October 10, 2007, 12:56 PM

One quick question...

anyone drove in BD (Dhaka) with their US/Canadian/Aus/UK driver's license? Any ganjam with the sergeants/traffic police regarding that?

this is legal right?

Little Rock, Arkansas. He is speaking on a "Little Rock Regional Chamber of Commerce" gathering for fortune 500. Monday Oct 15th. Luncheon cost $60.

Apney thik'e dhorsen. Amar onek legal taka. Allah onek disay. Meaning I can surely afford. But the question is does it worth? The only reason I am pondering on this is he is old and may not have a second chance. If I go before him then the point is mute.

As I said before, to me the value of shaking hands with Al Furqaan, hugging Kabir and kissing P_C is more than to shake Dr. Yunus's hand.

I think then it's worth it.

Now that's a bit too shommanjonok. But yes, to me, meeting our Mijan bhai will be more important than meeting Dr. Yunus too...honestly speaking

Tigers_eye · #**217** October 12, 2007, 10:57 AM

I guess the original question has no value now. I have been invited not only to the luncheon (free) but also to a reception that the sponsors are throwing at him. All I did was talked to the Governor for a minute or so.

It helps to know people. Will post pictures in Asaad's thread in near future.

Depends on what you're trying to say.

If it's YABA - Yet Another Bloody Acronym

In pharmaceutical area, it's: Yaba is a derivative of synthetic Amphetamines such as speed and can be manufactured far more quickly and easily than traditional forms of amphetamines.

In Thai: Yaa baa (ยาบ้า; also Ya Ba or Yaba; "crazy medicine" in Thai) are tablets containing a mixture of methamphetamine and caffeine ...

In Nigeria: Yaba is a suburb of Lagos, Nigeria.

Ps. Damn, google rocks!

ialbd · #**223** October 25, 2007, 10:40 AM

with all types of yaba news around, the invention of the term 'Yaba Shundori' (women yaba dealers) is simply hilarious..... haha.....

these stuffs alone can sell any bangla newspaper.....
