Nuts and Nuggets:



Nut: The United States has apologised for controversial remarks made by a US diplomat who spoke of "dark and dirty" Indians, calling the comments "inappropriate". US Vice-Consul Maureen Chao told Indian students on Friday that her "skin became dirty and dark like the Tamilians" after a long train journey, according to Indian media -- referring to people from the southern state of Tamil Nadu. Maureen Chao is a newly appointed diplomat to India by the Obama administration.



Nugget: Today’s Nugget comes from the New York Times “Quotation of the Day,” and I am surprised considering it came from the NYT, "We put our time in, we put our money in. And the city, through their callousness and everything else, just blew it." - WALTER TREMBLEY, a 74-year-old retired police officer from Central Falls, R.I., facing a 50% cut in his pension.
