A collection of random thoughts in this electronic space that I would like to refer to as my sachel. Tuesday, March 02, 2010. Educational Reform in California. Let me preface this by saying these are just my opinions, rants, etc. proceed with caution* *. 1 Mediocrity is rewarded. 2 No accountability standards (testing every five days doesn't count). 3 Teaching to a test and not to the student. 5 Watered down recruitment standards. 7 Lack of innovative thinking and solutions.

A collection of random thoughts in this electronic space that I would like to refer to as my sachel. Wednesday, May 05, 2010. Had it not been seen. Had it not been seen,. We would have continued like before. She has to wait. Time spent was too precious. Had it not been touched. We wouldn’t have noticed the blazing temperature. And continued like before…. She could have waited. We would have worked at it. Now it’s gone. Had it not been heard. We would not have noticed the shrieking. She should have waited.

A collection of random thoughts in this electronic space that I would like to refer to as my sachel. Tuesday, September 11, 2012. The question that I think merits discussion now 11 years later is where have we come since then? 9/11/2001 was a test of our resolve as a country, a people, a community, and a democracy. Did terrorists and the prospect of terror change us into something entirely different? Did this change make us better or worse? We went to Iraq, Saddam Hussein is dead. Is Iraq, especially...

Leaving a life of 9 years in Los Angeles. to take a job in India. This blog is the story of my journey. Tuesday, October 24, 2006. Typical. I don't update the blog for a month - then I do it every day. (Please see Diwali post before this one). I just wanted to get some pictures up now that I finally have "art" on my walls. This is what I came home to tonight - my dinner table set for me (one) beneath my new carved wood panel. I think it looks very cool. The red flowers (not sure what they're called) are ...

A whole heart was claimed. The devastation is vast,. Rows of abandoned home. Far as the eye can see. You can still hear the music. The soulful sounds of a movement. Crowds spilling through the streets. All that remains is silence. A vast sense of loss. The damage is done. We will rise again. And remain ….
