Terror attacks in Mumbai have killed more than 100 people. These attacks were well planned and probably had ‘external linkages.’ Targets for the terrorists were American and British citizens at various locations including hotels, train stations, and a Jewish center.

Black-clad Indian commandoes raided two luxury hotels to try to free hostages Thursday, and explosions and gunshots shook India’s financial capital a day after suspected Muslim militants attacked a number of sites.

Indian-Americans and others across America with connections to Mumbai were frantically trying to get in touch with loved ones and colleagues as they watched the scenes from the city under siege play out.

A South Korean amusement park is teaching students what it takes to be a good Santa Claus during the festive season. Dozens of Santa school students gathered on Wednesday (November 26) at Everland Park, which is about an hour’s drive south of Seoul, to master the Santa technique. Instead of riding a sleigh, the 30 male and female Santa students rode on the roller coaster, they were also trained to perfect their chuckle, dance-moves and caroling. At the end of the day, the students were each given a graduation diploma, and they threw up their Santa hats in celebration.
