Best wishes for a happy and prosperous Diwali to all.

Join the dots below

They say that the charges against this man, the alleged mastermind of 26/11 in Mumbai, are not worth the paper they are written on. His organisation continues to function with impunity. Another horrific bloodbath today in Lahore.
Chickens coming home to roost?

Particles and Pasta

A delightful article on pasta with appetizing pictures from the New York Times. In the same paper, an article on the Return of the Large Hadron Collider after a year out of action and the continuing quest for the earliest particles.

The misnamed spectre

It is ironic that a bunch of violent, bloodthirsty extremists are called the Taliban. The word itself means 'those gaining knowledge' or in short, students. 4 days ago, they inhumanly killed 5 humanitarian workers of the World Food Programme (headquartered in Rome) in Pakistan. Today, they attacked the Indian embassy in Kabul and the toll so far is 12. This is the second attack in a year on the embassy. The earlier one in 2008 claimed as many as 41 lives.

Unfortunately, there is unlikely to be any let up in their campaign of senseless killing.
