Sunday Reading: Connecting the Dots, Braille and a “Cheap Car” firm

Start your Sunday by reading why Yossarin at Offstunped believes there has been a fundamental shift in terror pre and post 2006….and how this may be linked to a shift across the border in Pakistan as well…This is actually a series of posts which I would highly recommend.

Next Britain’s ex-Home Secretary (equivalent to Home Minister in India), David Blunkett writes about how Braille “shaped his life by providing him from an early age with a window on the world”…Blunkett has been blind since birth. A very inspiring true life story.

and, finally a “cheap” BBC headlineCheap car firm to sponsor Ferrari* – which mentions Tata’s sponsorship of Ferrari from next season.

Thanks to Sanjay for alerting me to this. In Sanjay’s own words:

Given the fact that even Honda does not have money to participate in Formula 1, and the European car companies are best described as “goners”, the choice of words in the headline is odd at best.

At least I did not expect this fom the BBC.

Well said.

* Curiously, the headline has now been changed to “Ferrari announce sponsorship deal”.
