Dance of Chairman CBR : What’s the Big Deal

By Sameer Shaharyar • May 20th, 2008 • Category: Entertainment • 4 Comments

O come on what the heck? If chairman Central Board of Revenue (CBR) has danced a little in front of Pervez Musharraf, Shaukat Aziz and some other cabinet members, to show his one more skill, then why there is so much fuss? Let the CBR buddy dancing in tune with “Sanoo Nehar Alay Pull tay Bula kay.

This dance was occurred in those days, when the nation was getting screwed due to the flour crisis, and this was done when Operation Lal Masjid was on the cards, and Bugti was killed and numerous people were already killed in the FATA. This was done when  suicide bombings were rocking the country from Karachi to Peshawar.

But yes, the dance was cool, and the stylish Abdullah Yousuf should join Lollywood.

Mians were having their big time meetings in the nice luxury suits in the wonderful West London. Suddenly, you wake up to mourn and want us to mourn with you. Sorry, this time you will have to do it alone, wait, ask Gul Raiz to join you. Two can pretend better!

    WORD HISTORY
    The word eunuch does not derive, as one might think, from the operation that produced a eunuch but rather from one of his functions.

    Eunuch goes back to the Greek word eunoukhos, “a castrated person employed to take charge of the women of a harem and act as chamberlain.

    ” The Greek word is derived from eunē, “bed,” and ekhein, “to keep.”

    A eunuch, of course, was ideally suited to guard the bedchamber of women.

    Eunuchs were employed in the Middle East and China as guards and servants in harems or other women’s quarters and as chamberlains to kings.

    The eunuchs’ confidential position frequently enabled them to exercise an important influence over their royal masters.

    Many of the patriarchs of Constantinople during Byzantine times were eunuchs.

    The custom of employing eunuchs as servants in wealthy or royal households is very ancient; it reached its epitome at the court of Constantinople under the Byzantine emperors, from whom the Ottoman sultans adopted it.

    Eunuchs often rose to high position, the Byzantine general Narses being the most celebrated example.

    In the Muslim world the use of eunuchs was far less common than is generally believed;

    However, the sale of young males to be eunuchs was formerly an important element in African trade.

    The castrating operation, which retards the development of normal male characteristics, including the deepening of the voice, was performed with varying thoroughness and with varying success.

    From Constantinople spread the custom of using eunuchs in choirs.
