...leafy street in the busy Fort area. It boasts an airy café and a store retailing hard-to-find art books because, spokeswoman Kanchi Mehta says, "We wanted to start a cultural institution where people come to hang out, eat and talk, not just look at the art and leave." Items on display aren't limited to fine art. The current show, "Her Work Is Never Done," runs until March 20 (and again from March 26 to April 17) and features hats from milliner Shilpa Chavan, home products from graphic designer Divya Thakur and animated films by award-winning...
More than a month after his crushed left leg was amputated just above the knee, Gedeon Ralph Mary, 23, still cries.

Several members of the team let their beards grow and had gray streaks added to their hair. They replaced their underwear, which was stamped with the logo of the army, sent their costumes through washing machines for a lived-in look, and filled their wallets with fake driver's licenses and foreign currency...
...fact, they did look. A fairly senior doctor hastily flipped my eyelid but failed to notice anything, despite the development of bumps similar to cobblestones that were scraping my cornea every time I blinked. A simple steroid would have reduced the swelling (as it did once I was prescribed one in the States) but I was told over and over that steroid drops would make it worse.
