...between cunning idiocies about the title "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" (he said it "sounds like something Siegfried and Roy do on vacation"), Martin addressed a generic suspicion about Hollywood. "Eight hundred million people," he said, "are thinking the same thought: that we're all gay." If so, it's because the publicity on the stars' gowns has turned much of the Oscar Night audience into Mr. Blackwells: What are these beautiful people wearing and how awful do they look?

...Distrust of government officials permeates India. And any inadvertent act or omission is viewed with suspicion, even though incompetence is often the culprit. When the census began on February 9, President K.R. Narayanan was the first to step up. As a member of the scheduled castes, he is required to name the caste community he belongs to, which is based in the southern state of Kerala. It was not on the census list. Embarrassed officials suggested he skip that column. He refused. India's census commissioner Jayant Kumar Banthia says that separate scheduled caste lists are compiled for each state...
