Editor's Note
Wishing all of you a very Happy New Year.
With Makarsankrant (Jan. 14) and India Republic Day (Jan. 26) just a few weeks away, we have compiled of a list of the festivities in our Florida communities. And then there is the second annual India Day organized by IACC on Jan. 19 at Amway Center in Orlando. Also, read all about the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Weekend & Awards coming to Tampa on April 26-28. It should be an exciting time for movie fans as IIFA is making its debut in the United States. Check out our picks for the best movies of 2013.
And we are happy to introduce yet another new guest columnist. Robert A.G. LeVine, president of Selective College Consulting, offers tips for getting into the best colleges.
