New Look, Crack and Dreams

3 things:

1. I finally migrated to the new template of blogger, primarily due to the cool drop-down list of posts on your right [and the ability to add widgets - though I am not keen on experimenting on that for now].

2. Listen to this report about how sociologist Sudhir Venkatesh spent seven years among crack dealers as part of his thesis.

3. Check out Khwaab [and read their blog], a non-profit for helping children, but with an interesting twist -- they do NOT want you to donate money, just your time. So if you're in the Pune area, join in! I so wish I could help.

That's it for now folks. Those who are into the current US political season might want to listen to what the author of "how to rig an election" has to say.
