...meet all the stay-at-home moms. It turns out the opening scenes of all those movies are a bit misleading. I got nothing but algae. So much algae. The horror. The horror. Freshman year, after I became well known for swatting jump shots from sub-five-foot Indian girls in B-league IM basketball, my Facebook profile was still surprisingly un-poked. I couldn’t explain it: I had worked it at all of the study breaks, and was staying in Annenberg late into every night. I was getting nowhere with the girls of the class...
...they weren't in enough hot water over their handling of the Mumbai massacre, Indian security forces have added yet another blunder to the growing list of lapses before and after last month's attacks: the arrest of Mukhtar Ahmed. Ahmed was held by the West Bengal police on Friday night for procuring mobile-phone cards for Lashkar-e-Taiba, the organization suspected of staging the Mumbai attacks.

There may be more suicide bombings." He says the task of ridding Pakistan of terrorists cannot be left to the Pakistani authorities. "It should be taken up by an international force," he says...
...them and let them get back to their activities," says B. Raman, former head of the counterterrorism wing of the R&AW. "They need to show us that this time it will not be a farce. They should either deport those accused of the Mumbai attacks or allow an Indian police team to visit Pakistan and interrogate them." Raman believes greater pressure from the U.S. and from Israel, which lost nine citizens in the Mumbai carnage, may make a crucial difference this time. "As of now, there is tremendous anger among the Americans and the Israelis," he says...
