The boulevard trees have grown so high they form an urban forest that rivals Winnipeg's. The traffic circles are busy at all hours now. I wouldn't ride a bike around them unless I were suicidal. He took us to the Rajghat (the site of Mahatma Gandhi's cremation), the Gandhi Museum, and Jama Majid, the largest and most beautiful mosque in India. In between we had a wild ride through the teeming narrow streets of the Muslim market. I sense the dignity and civility of Sri Kkan and his pride in India's long and largely peaceful struggle for independence are somehow related.
Children constitute an important target market segment and merit attention from a marketing perspective. The role that children play in making decisions concerning the entire family unit has prompted researchers to direct attention to the study of influence of children. The amount of influence exerted by children varies by product category and stage of the decision making process. For some products, they are active initiators, information seekers, and buyers; whereas for other product categories, they influence purchases made by the parents.

Family, peers, and media are key socializing agents for children wherein family-specific characteristics such as parental style, family's Sex Role Orientation (SRO)...
Jaisalmer is an overnight train ride from Jaipur, the western tip of India's famous golden triangle. If the Disney movie Alladin wasn't a cartoon, you'd swear it was filmed in this hot, dusty city full of winding alleys, where sacred cows meander under rainbow clotheslines.

Our guides found a tree, and from simple sacks on Mr. [India]'s saddle produced a feast. We helped make chappati -- an Indian flatbread -- and gobbled it down with daal. The entire meal was cooked ov...
Even the gloomiest pundits believe India's "trend" growth rate is at least six per cent -- the rate it has achieved since 1991, when Manmohan Singh, then finance minister and now prime minister, removed some of the most crippling constraints of the licence raj. And growth should be faster still if India is able to cash in its "demographic dividend. France's Arcelor, the world's second-biggest steelmaker, would rather jump into a hasty marriage with Severstal, a Russian producer, than submit to the harsh rigors of a union with the world's biggest steel firm, Mittal Steel.

But can its success make India as a whole richer? In...
