And Whiz Kids

US President Barack Obama has profusely praised two Indian-American science whiz kids for their innovative ideas and path breaking thinking, which he said would help serve the global community.

Growing up in a small town on the Argentine plains, Augusto Cicare was so fascinated by flight that he took apart his mother's old bedframe and turned it into the fuselage of a helicopter.

A 16-year-old US whiz kid has achieved an unusual double of graduating from high school and college in the same week - completing her bachelor's degree first.

Giving Kolkatans a flavour of the US culture and values, a six-day American documentary film festival will be held in the city from this Thursday.
