• Lust for power: "Kejriwal wanted to be PM, that’s why AAP quit Delhi" - Anna Hazare



• Mr Bright: Stanford Assistant Professor of Bioengineering Manu Prakash won a contest to develop the 21st-century chemistry set. His version, based on a toy music box, is small, robust, programmable and costs $5.
