London Riots - One of the Strangest Days of my Life
London UK
Well as the title says,the other day was one of the strangest days ever in my life. I woke up with a feeling telling me to leave London, did I? No it was ‘just a feeling’ and where would I go? All day I was tearful and feeling fearful/edgy, no apparent reason really. Get back home to Bethnal Green and I walk down the road seeing shops being urgently closed
I see hooded faces I never seen here before.
Next thing I know I have bottles whistling around my head and police are charging towards a big group of hooded youth.
My street is now looking like a Christmas tree with decorations full of glass, and other ornaments, strewn about on the street making it sparkle.

Asia NewsMahalaya
 Goddess Durga
Mahalaya marks the advent of Durga Puja, the most auspicious occasion of the Bengalis, in India. The stay of Goddess Durga on Earth is only four days long. But Mahalaya starts before seven days with the chanting of ‘Mahisasura Mardini’ at dawn. ‘Debipaksha’ starts from this day. Goddess Durga is invited on Earth by the chanting of “Jago Tumi Jago”. Early at dawn people go to Ganga and pray for their demised relatives while standing in the water. This entire process is known as Torpon. The festival of Mahalaya is very important for the Bengalis. At noon the rituals are brought to an end. New clothes and sweets are offered by the devotees to their forefathers.
