The mood was sombre at the Indian Institute of Management-Ahmedabad (IIM-A) on Monday. All classes were cancelled after a first year
PGP student, Nikhil Kamath, 22, died after a week-long illness.

Only former president Abdul Kalam, who is in the city took his special sessions with PGP and PGPX students after the news of Kamath's death on early Monday morning at a private hospital, spread.

Nikhil was reported to be suffering from Thrombotic Thromocytopenic Purpura (TTP), a blood disorder which leads to rapid deterioration and multiple organ failure. According to doctors this condition may arise due to some viral infection.

Since he was admitted to Sterling Hospital with acute respiratory distress along with multiple organ failure, he was suspected of swine flu, and his samples were sent for tests. However, principal secretary, health, Ravi Saxena later told TOI that Kamath tested negative for H1N1.

At a pre-scheduled press conference, IIM-A director Sameer Barua told mediapersons, "We are extremely pained to inform you about the death of our student Nikhil. He was admitted to SAL and diagnosed to be suffering from TTP but his condition deteriorated rapidly. There was a team of five to seven specialists working on him. He was later shifted to Sterling Hospital where he succumbed early on Monday morning."

Nikhil got fever on September 22 for which he took medication and it subsided. But, it re-occurred two days later when he consulted the resident doctor on campus Kiran Desai and was asked to be quarantined.

When his condition failed to improve he was admitted to SAL Hospital where his condition further deteriorated and developed multiple-organ failure.

On Sunday night, he was transferred to Sterling Hospital where the doctor put him in isolation as Nikhil was having acute respiratory distress, high fever and multiple organ failure.

"Since he had to be put on ventilator and he presented all symptoms of swine flu, we gave him on Tamiflu and sent his blood sample for testing," said Dr Chandramauli Raval, medical director of Sterling Hospital.

"Since IIM-A has had a few cases earlier, there might have been anxiety that Nikhil was probably suffering from swine flu. But he had no breathlessness, he was suffering from the blood disorder TTP which led to organ failure," attending physician in SAL Ramesh Rao told TOI.

Meanwhile, Nikhil's last rites were performed at the crematorium in Ellisbridge in the presence of his father D Kamath and other family members and friends.

World tourism day

27 September was declared World Tourism Day by the United Nations in 1979. It is a day where the tourism industry worldwide celebrates the impact of the tourism sector on world economies as well as on improving the lives of people. Travel and Tourism represents some five percent of GDP of G20 countries and 27% of their services exports. This sector is more significant for the world's poorest countries where it is a mainstay of their economies, a key factor in employment and trade as well as a vital lifeline for their development.

At its Fifteenth Session in Beijing, China, in October of 2003, the Assembly decided the following geographic order to be followed for the World Tourism Day celebrations: 2006 in Europe; 2007 in South Asia; 2008 in the Americas, and 2009 in Africa.

South Africa today, celebrated World Tourism Day (WTD) in Kimberley in the Northern Cape under the theme, "Tourism: Celebrating Diversity". In her keynote address, Deputy Minister of Tourism, Ms Tokozile Xasa, said Tourism is a catalyst in driving the economic development globally and if managed well it will benefit communities and reduce poverty in line with national priorities.

Tourism is a major contributor to South Africa's gross domestic product (GDP). It contributes approximately eight percent of GDP and generates around one million jobs directly and indirectly. The economic slowdown has had a negative impact on our economy, but tourism has helped the country maintain the effects of the global recession. In 2008 South Africa held more than nine million visitors.

In Celebrating Diversity, provinces today showcased their different attractions and heritage sites through exhibitions. They included amongst others the Cradle of Human Kind from Gauteng and the Taung skull from North West.

Officials to Take Time Investigating Jackson's Death

The official said that three weeks into the case, investigators from the Los Angeles Police Department, the county coroner's office, the district attorney's office and the Drug Enforcement Administration remain "so far away" from concluding their investigation.Widespread reports about the imminent arrest of one or more of Jackson's physicians are wrongheaded, he said."They are not suspects," he said of several doctors who were ordered to turn over Jackson's medical files to authorities.

"They are repositories of medical history.There's been a high level of cooperation."He also discounted reports that the singer's death might have been a suicide attempt, saying there was no evidence to suggest that.The DEA would likely play a role in looking at Jackson's doctors, the drugs they prescribed and whether the doctors were registered with the DEA to prescribe those substances as federal law requires. Also, investigators are expected to look at the sources of the drugs provided to Jackson or his associates to determine if there was a pattern of trafficking.

Multiple law enforcement sources confirmed that the Jackson investigation is unfolding more slowly than the sometimes-breathless coverage has suggested. At one point, there were widespread reports that the coroner's office would release results of Jackson's toxicology report as early as Monday. Officials now say that will likely take longer.If the toxicology report indicates that Jackson's death was caused by propofol, the powerful anesthetic found in his home, prosecutors could bring charges against doctors or others involved in giving him the drug. Prosecutors have discussed a range of possible charges in that scenario "all the way up to involuntary manslaughter," the senior law enforcement official said.

But the sources agreed that the probe may end without criminal charges directly related to the death. Even if the coroner declares the case a homicide, authorities may not pursue charges, said one source familiar with the investigation.

With the damage made by the Atlanta flooding growing with each report.

Power is called from the top of the mountain, and humbly asked for his blessing to our humble operation of world domination. Ten thousand screaming hypocrites will undoubtedly upset the balance of power in the long road of relentless ingenuity. And the lambs and sheep were taken in the cost of doing business in the modern era. Run the backup generator and create your own response to the madness of a red tide, and all the special favors granted, when administered to a crowd.

atlanta flood

A host of unusual grace, a charm in the chaos and rebellion. In the endless path of a never-ending mission, that the millions of voices suddenly cried out and becomes silent. We await the arrival of the biomass that will fill our plates with enough food to survive the upper luxury class and attempt to kill the peasant population. Saying something.

You are not allowed to have the extra time needed to achieve their aspirations. Take a tour of the monastery. Control Panels contracted level of existence to another level of reality at random. If you have time to pass the ball from one domain to another, be supportive, it's becoming really move beyond the quarantine zone? Do not go, tell the owners that the user has left the barn open.

Governor Palin Takes President Obama to School

Interesting and valid points. I would agree, President Obama did not go on Fox because he didn't want to answer the hard questions. He is completely ignoring those who disagree with him.President Obama could learn a thing or two from Governor Palin.The president is in my state, the state of New York.Yesterday he made media round after media round, causing some to wonder if these plethora of appearances are too much of a "good" thing. In fact, tomorrow he will be a mere 35 miles from where I live as he speaks at Hudson Valley Community College.
