...Vitro Fertilization When Louise Brown was delivered in England on July 25, 1978, the test-tube-baby industry was born. Scientists had joined her parents' eggs and sperm in a Petri dish and then implanted the embryo in her mother's uterus. (Elizabeth Carr, above, was the U.S.'s first in vitro-fertilized baby.) Despite a dismal 15% success rate, the process remains the treatment of choice for infertile couples...
...culture that takes place in major cities (New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, respectively). But by living across a river or in a formerly industrial neighborhood, they find the cheaper rent and supportive, small-town feel that make working as an artist doable. "It's like this handy Petri dish of culture," says Kirsten Hively, who founded wburg.com a website about Williamsburg...

The New Delhi native dips his flat naan bread into a dish of spinach curry in the air-conditioned comfort of a friend's private club.

That night he plans to watch X2: X-Men United...
...McAloo Tikki burger, a vegetarian fried-potato patty with cheese. The newest entry is the McCurry Pan, a flat pastry filled with hot broccoli or chicken curry. The result: while the floundering fast-food giant scales back and shuts restaurants elsewhere in the world, in India it can't dish out the veggie burgers fast enough. McDonald's has 48 stores in India, 60% of them built in the past 18 months. The outlets see on average 3,000 customers a day, placing the units in the company's top 10%. Bakshi expects sales to grow 40% annually in coming...
