Pretty straightforward: there's a surgical mask-clad doctor with an impossibly large syringe spewing some sort of euthanizing liquid that zaps evil looking pigs to death in one shot. They oink, turn from green to pink and croak. It's simple and addictive in the way that all great Internet time sucks can be. Once you perfect the whack-a-mole style distraction, you can link to the game on your blog or to the social network of your choosing. (Read "China and Swine Flu: Are Mexicans Being Singled...
...example, next week's Star Trek, J.J. Abrams' re-spiffing of the 1960s TV series. Jackman-Wolverine may be able to defeat evil geniuses, lab-made supervillains and his nasty half-brother, but he's unlikely to withstand the challenge of a teenage James Kirk.

Logan, sensing Stryker's evil-genius motives, is reluctant to join the gang. "Your country needs you," Stryker pleads, to which Logan replies, "I'm Canadian...

In 2002, it witnessed a six-week riot, the worst in the country's history, leaving more than 1,800 people dead, mostly Muslims. Modi has refused to apologize for the massacres. He continues to be as capable of delivering fiery Hindu-nationalist speeches as he is in delivering essential public services to his people; he has has ruthlessly exploited religious divisions to attain and hang on to power. With this combination of prosperity gospel and virulent religion...
