On a Sunday afternoon in Bolingbrook, Illinois, we enjoyed a Cricket exhibition between teams representing India and Pakistan. An estimated crowd of 1,500 fans gathered Indian Chase Meadows Park, to watch a short (five hour) 20/20 match. Chicago is making a bid for the 2016 Olympics and organizers of this event hope that Cricket becomes an Olympic sport.

The Chicago area is home to a large Indo/Pakistani community. The friendly atmosphere between teams contrasts with heightened political tensions between India and Pakistan itself. On this day, Pakistan prevailed, tallying 248 runs in the route. At the end, everyone shook hands and went home happy.

A month after the December 26, 2004 Tsunami that rocked countries bordering the Indian Ocean, I visited Chennai, India. Chennai, formerly known as Madras, is a city in Tamil Nadu. Chennai was hit by the wave, and was just beginning to recover when we arrived. Judging from this footage, it is hard to tell that anything happened at all. Scenes include a Shiva Temple, street traffic and the beach.
