In today's briefing:

1.  National Commission for Higher Education about to be setup.

2.  What do we know about the setting up of UGC?

3.  A quick recap of the contentions about the border between India and China.

4.  We have all heard of junk, junk food etc.  But junk sleep?  Anyone?  Yeah.  There is such a thing.  Take a look.

5.  New finds of Uranium deposits.

6.  One more committee on revitalizing the sugar industry.  How many other agriculture commodities have so many committees as this one?  Any idea?

7.  Ever heard of the phrase "Damascene conversion"?  I came across today for the first time.  It is very interesting to learn.

8.  If at all I am asked to name an argumentative Indian, I would not hesitate to name Swaminathan Anklesaria Aiyar as one.  Take a look at his logic in arguing about equality.

9.  What is a factor driven economy?  What is its most important character?

10.  Banks also fall in love with carbon trading.

11.  Ever heard of a whipsaw situation in stock trading?

12.  Who is a Lord Lieutenant in England?  It is very amusing.

13.  World's biggest diamond discovered.  What held the title so far?

That's all for today folks.  Happy reading.
