Current affairs briefing for 15th March 2008

Hi friends,

Here is our link for today:

http://indiancurrentaffairs.blogspot.com/2008/03/15032008.html

I couldn't post for the last couple of days, because I was very busy in my personal life.  Tomorrow also there won't be a posting because I will not be in town.

In today's briefing:

1.  Do you know the full names of the SOX authors?  What is SOX anyway?

2.  A solid ruling by our Supreme Court on 'sons of the soil' theory.

3.  What is the country in which computer and DVD sales are banned?

4.  What is the spread between reverse repo and repo rates?

5.  Why are world commodity prices rising in spite of the threat of a recession?

6.  Can you define celebrity any more hilariously than Fred Allen?

7.  On our defence hardware acquisitions.  USS Trenton -- what is wrong with it?  When is Admiral Gorhkov likely to be inducted into our Navy?  What about LCA?  What are its plus points?

8.  Water found on Mars?

9.  You have an excellent essay on Presidential vs. Parliamentary form of democracy in today's papers.

10.  A bit about DGHC.

11.  Who holds the longest record for long jump?

12.  India's Formula One debut.  Not bad at 17th place.

13.  China tops Internet user numbers.

That's it for today.  Happy reading.
