...need. It's a virtual video store with more than 100,000 titles - movies and TV shows. And it's cheap: for the four-at-a-time price of $23.99, you could conceivably see about 50 videos a month - if you devoted your life to the task. In a deep recession, Netflix has also taught film fans that renting a movie or TV series not only is way less expensive than buying but also takes up no shelf space when you move from your foreclosed home into your parents' basement.

...grabs the angry serpent's tail while Heflick goes for the other end. After a brief struggle, during which Heflick gets his hand bloodied by a sharp snake tooth, they pull the python's head, with its camouflage-like design, into their clutches.

There's time-lapse photography, footage shot...
...richest, Ambani’s own brother, Mukesh. The two businessmen now independently run what was once India’s largest industrial conglomerate, Reliance Industries, divided between the quarreling heirs after the death of the family and company patriarch, Dhirubhai Ambani. In a country ostensibly rooted in deep extended-family relations, the partitioning of Reliance and the Ambani family—the brothers now estranged—raises many questions as to the relevance of India’s cultural emphasis on family in a time of industrialization, when individual greed and ambition seem to increasingly trump former fraternal...
