TORi Survey
Ladies and gentlemen,

నా ఫ్రెండ్ సుబ్బారావు ఇంటిపేరు ఏమిటో చాల మందికి తెలీదు. షాపింగ్ సుబ్బారావు గా పిలువబడే అతని ఇంటిపేరే షాపింగ్ అన్నమాట. షాపింగ్ టిప్స్ లో competition అంటూ ఏదైనా ఉంటె, అందులో సుబ్బారావు అలవోకగా నేగ్గేస్తాడు.

అయితే, దమ్ముంటే Costco!

Over the past several days, I have been so engulfed with work, in upgrading TORI website and other things. This news is a bit dated — but I came to know about this only after Bhanu Prakash alerted me to it this evening. The fact that I did not even know about this news until [...]

Joel Stein says he was going for humor in his opinion piece, “My Own Private India,” which ran in Monday’s TIME Magazine. But the Indian-American community — members of which serve as the butt of many of Stein’s jokes — aren’t laughing.
Stein’s piece focuses on the cultural [...]

There is a lot to discuss on this subject. For lack of time, I was not able to participate in the discussion started by Sandeep. Here is an excellent depiction of the complicated political and economic continuum, which some see in black-and white.
