And do take a look at our new quiz for the day at http://discover-it.blogspot.com/2006/09/quiz.html

In today's briefing:

1.  Do you know the name of the common visa that is there for the EU countries?  See how Caribbean nations are trying to implement one such regime.

2.  Do you know how competitive our healthcare costs are compared with the developed countries.  Look at what the industry feels.

3.  Some info about Ladakh and the monastery culture that is prevalent there.

4.  Ever heard of Kafka?  Who is he?

5.  Some tidbits about sixth pay commission.  Though I am interested in the ultimate pay recommendation; you too have something of interest there -- variable pay.

6.  Who is our Attorney General? 

7.  Some of you asked me about Hedge funds.  Find a link to an excellent article on them today.

8.  Look at and know why coloured fruits are good for health.

9.  Celebrate Hyderabad -- the third largest urban conglomeration in India.

10.  Indian Civil Service Day -- when is it celebrated?

11.  Do you still remember the Telgi scam?  What is that about?  How did it get unearthed in the first place?  The convictions are finally here.

12.  What is Edgeline technology that is making waves?  Geeks among you should be able to answer this easily.

13.  When was Rome founded?

14.  Let's look at our tiny neighbour Bhutan.  In these days also we can find enlightened rulers.  That's how I would prefer to describe the Bhutanese King.

That's all for today folks.

Happy reading.
