So, here's the thing: Each adaptation of Pride and Prejudice I've seen has strengths and weaknesses. What I look for in an Austen adaptation is whether I am learning from her work. Does the adaptation have her voice? Is it entertaining? What do you think?

Pakistanβs Truck Art - A Beautiful Expression of Culture :
Colorfully decorated trucks with artistic impressions tend to adorn roads and highways in Pakistan. For decades, these jingle trucks have acted as canvases for Pakistani artists and granted them a way to introduce the world to Pakistanβs culture, folklore, poetry and art.
History of Pakistanβs truck art goes back to 1920, when Bedford trucks invaded streets of Pakistan.
