Once again [1], Asian Americans show their poker faces, otherwise known as "inscrutability."

Everything else you can scrut. For example:

• Times Square Bomber pleads guilty [2].

• Speaking of representation: Nikki Haley wins the primary [5].

• Interview with Mee Moua [6], the first Hmong American legislator.

• Jindal wins a legal victory over Obama [7] on six-month oil-drilling moratorium. Jindal wins, we lose.

• Sacramento boycotts Arizona [8].

• An interesting article on the extra challenges the Gulf's Vietnamese fishermen are facing [9].

• The beating of an Indian American man in New Jersey by teenagers may have been racially motivated [10].

• Ana "The Hurricane" Julaton is fighting for a world championship [11] in Canada this week. You might take note.

• Speaking of fighting, Cung Le redeemed himself against Scott Smith [12] in their recent rematch.

• Porochista Khakpour reflects on Iranians in pop culture [13].

• An Indian American is behind US success in the World Cup [14] this year. (Yeah, it's a success that we got that far!)
