The population of 1.8 million of Bhopal has been rationed to 30 minutes of water supply every other day since October. That became one day in three as the monsoon failed to materialise. In nearby Indore the ration is half an hour's supply every seven days.

Morgan Stanley's teenage star: 'I understood banking within a week'
Matthew Robson, the schoolboy who became an overnight sensation during a work experience stint at Morgan Stanley, said it took him only a week to "understand banking".
The 15-year-old became a surprise hit at the financial services provider after writing a research paper on the way teenagers view media such as the internet, mobile phones and Twitter.

In the spring of 2008, Sons of Maxwell were traveling to Nebraska for a one-week tour and my Taylor guitar was witnessed being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago. I discovered later that the $3500 guitar was severely damaged. They didnt deny the experience occurred but for nine months the various people I communicated with put the responsibility for dealing with the damage on everyone other than themselves and finally said they would do nothing to compensate me for my loss. So I promised the last person to finally say no to compensation (Ms. Irlweg) that I would write and produce three songs about my experience with United Airlines and make videos for each to be viewed online by anyone in the world. United: Song 1 is the first of those songs. United: Song 2 has been written and video production is underway. United: Song 3 is coming. I promise!!!
