4:20 pm Recent stats show that the total number of crimes in Harris County have fallen, yet there are daily reports of gunfights and people being murdered. It’s up to the District Attorney’s office to investigate these cases and prosecute them, so we wondered how the process works. Here to give us some background into this is HC Asst. DA Karen Barney, the chief prosecutor of the Homicide Division.

5:00 pm Mass manufacturing and merchandising cater to the growing appetite of the expanding consumer class worldwide but it has often been at the expense of the artisans who belong to cottage industries who find their incomes shrinking as their handicrafts are priced out and market share dwindle. When Tannya Singh discovered this happening in her ancestral home of New Delhi, she was prodded into action and started a company, Imroz Niwas, to tackle this issue. She joins us today to explain what she has created and its goals.
5:20 pm Cruising across the seas or a brief all-expenses paid vacation is an exciting experience for many peoples as they seek the company of their friends and family or business associates, or even like-minded groups. With eight and ten storey hotels on them and multiple entertainment venues, cruise ships have become resorts on the high seas. Rahat Sultana Kalle is among an elite group who travels 20 times and more each year. She joins us today to tell us what motivates her to cruise so often.

5:40 pm At the heyday of his engineering career with Conoco and later USAID, Bhamy Shenoy took the unusual step of retiring in order to get back to his roots in Mysore, Karnataka where he got involved with NGOs fighting corruption and to work for India’s development. He and his wife Suman still visit the US often, as their three children live here. We turn to him today to tell us what its like to be a repatriated Indian and the challenges there.
