	Fashion India - Gossip - 1st week of January
		Aimee was born without fibula bones in her legs and hence had to have them amputated from below the knee.
		Aimee is also a paralympic champion and holds world records for the 100 and 200 meter dash and long jump for the disabled.
		At present, Aimee is hosting a show on the Discovery Channel and if you have any plans of inviting her home, make sure you stock up on the samosas, dosas and tandoori chicken – her favourite Indian foods.

	Lived Experience: audience and 'cyborged' image/representation/identity
		In the Mullins photo, the drained colour scheme, bedraggled hair, the exotic connotations of the fans and the historic allusions of the skirt all create this image of a doll, as does the visible seams between Mullins’ real and her artificial legs, which look like the joint of Barbie dolls with bendable knees.
		Mullins' artificial legs are introduced later in the commercial, cut into shots of a spontaneous party, which puts the model into a 'real' social situation, and shows her laughing amongst a bunch of people.
		In the climax of the commercial, and the implied climax of the couture show, Mullins runs down the catwalk, and the run is captured in close detail, bringing together the exoticism of the animal spirit and the technology of camera and high tech spring legs.

		Growing up in a small town in Pennsylvania, Mullins was surrounded by scores of cousins, all of whom were raised with the same expectations — that they would excel and go to college.
		Since she was a double amputee and he didn't have to match a prosthetic leg to a real leg, he thought she might as well run on legs modeled after the world's fastest animal.
		Mullins went to the 1996 Atlanta Paralympics on curved legs and set world records in the 100-meter dash and the long jump.

		You Look Confused: Aimee Mullins plays the Entered Novitiate, whose job is to cut potato wedges.
		The last quarter or so of the film abandons even this semicoherent narrative for a different thread, called "The Orders," in which Barney, dressed in pink, scales the interior walls of the Guggenheim, while different performances, musical and artistic, are taking place on each level.
		Among them are a Rockettes-like chorus line, two punkish bands, Aimee Mullins as a leopard-woman, and Richard Serra flinging molten Vaseline into a drainage conduit.

		A violent conclusion hammers home the idea of man's fruitless search during a chaotic Guggenheim hootenanny complete with a kick line, a nude cheetah lady (double amputee Aimee Mullins), and a war between punk bands Agnostic Front and Murphy's Law.
		This narrative of Barney's three-hour series finale is less important than juxtaposition and iconography in a film obsessed with medallions, triangular blocks, and the pentagonal Chrysler logo.

		They showed me her biographical details in an immaculately presented brochure from the William Morris Agency, one of the world's top talent agencies, and told me what an incredibly talented woman she is. Apparently she had already received a few roles, and was now looking for something more substantial.
		The most superficial of all industries took on an actress purely for her ability, and not for the gimmicky story lines behind a woman with two artificial limbs.
		I mentioned that I was missing a foot, and we chatted about my leg, Aimee's career, and the fact that she even designed her own limbs.

		Interwoven with remarks by writers, journalists, and athletes, Glory tells a story — about having the gumption to lose and knowing that winning is a state of mind; about the symbiosis of grace and power and the transformation of energy into passion.
