	The Hindu : Opinion / Leader Page Articles : Gujarat madrasas: an education in terror?
		Using the code-name `Aslam Kashmiri,' Sardana is believed to have recruited at least 20 men from Gujarat and Maharashtra to the Lashkar-e-Taiba — including several members of the cell which executed the July serial bombings in Mumbai.
		During his time at Tarkeshwar, Sardana met Mohammad Amir Shakeel Ahmad Sheikh, one of the 11 Lashkar operatives arrested at Aurangabad and Beed in May this year for their role in handling a massive explosives and arms consignment that was intended for major terror strikes in Gujarat and Maharashtra.

	Beyond More Crop per Drop
		Sardana is lucky that she has her vegetabe plot and that she can get water there, even though it is expensive and it is wastewater.
		Sardana has had more success trying to use a drip irrigation kit for her vegetables, but that only works next to the house where they have clean water – on her wastewater irrigated plot the drip lines would be clogged too quickly.
		Sardana is not sure that that would work, but it certainly would be very expensive and probably not bring water to her farm in time.

	The Sardana and I
		Sardana recordings, by the way, don’t contain the full set of tirades unless they are labeled sardanes per a ballar (sardanas for dancing); otherwise one only hears the “concert sardana” consisting of introit, two playings of curts and one or two of llargs.
		The sardana curta is, somehow, politically correct to the dancers of the Plaça del Rei, none of whom I have ever seen dancing the standard sardana.
		It is far more likely, though, that “sardana” is a respelling, with no difference in pronunciation, of cerdana (Catalans have great difficulties with spelling their language), referring to the region called Cerdanya (Cerdagne in French) that straddles the Pyrenees to the west of the Empordà.

	Catalan tradition - The Sardana
		The best opportunities to see sardanas are a village Festa Major, the Focs de Sant Joan (23rd June) or, in French Catalonia, the quatorze juillet celebrations.
		For an authentic sardana, choose a small to medium sized village rather than the tourist hotspots where sardanas may be staged as an attraction for the visitors rather than as a spontaneous expression of the Catalan spirit.
		There are some sardanas in which the Series ends with a even total number of points; many have an odd number.
