Warning! Radiation risk

When the story of the improper disposal of radioactive waste in New Delhi came out, we all thought it was a foreign source. The enemy, it turned out, was within, my Alma Mater, Delhi University. We need to be careful in handling such materials, I say.

It took me a long time to figure out the artist whose painting of his mistress sold for a record $ 106.5 million in New York, yesterday. The news became an impetus to recollect my personal journey, including a physical one, of trying to understand this great artist.
