American ‘Indian’ Election

A Kenyan born, muslim born, coloured christian man living in Chicago now holds the highest office in the world. Arguably the most powerful man on the planet will now take calls on several issues like free trade between countries, American taxation policy, foreign policy, alternate energy fuel policy, war on terror policy and a much more.

Guitar Hero….if you didn’t know…this is the future of Video Games!

At Connaught Place in Delhi, next to the PVR Plaza complex is a fairly visible restaurant and lounge called castle 9. I have no idea what inspires the name. I went there with my friends and we all reached at different times. While there were bunch of people waiting outside, I went in straight away saying that my friends are waiting for me inside. I entered a shabby restaurant half empty and no one to guide me to a table. I was surprised that a bunch of people were waiting outside and at …
