Can we keep all the conspiracy theories in another thread please? I'm trying to summarise most of the reports here.. 1) Nariman House in Colaba/Fort - occupied by the Bene Israeli community even today. Firing took place here. Jewish people onlee here. 3 people shot dead here (new name of this buildi...

Reports of 2 bomb blasts in the Napean Sea Road area.

Firing on Colaba Causeway, Cafe Leopold. Other incidents at the Oberoi hotel at Nariman Point, the Taj Palace and Towers.

There is no other camera manufacturer that can make the same claim. So all your old lenses are good to go. H...

My dad has an old Asahi Pentax SLR, with a great collection of lenses, fisheye,superzoom,the works. Some of them have fungus in them. How feasible is it to get them cleaned up? I'd like to pick up a new K20D and pair these up with them. Will save a LOT of money.

Anilbhai lives in Seawind, an 8-floor building in Cuffe Parade. It is where Mukeshbhai is shifting out of.

Ratan Tata lives in Bakhtawar building, Colaba.. v.close to Seawind. A duplex apartment.
