Barwaan Kala a virually inaccessible village in the remote Kaimur hills in India, is known locally as the “village of unmarried people” with some 121 bachelors living there.
At the last election they were visited by a politician who promised them “if you elect me I’ll stay a bachelor until we get a road to your village”, but as is the way with politicians, once in office he married, forgetting the village and his promise.
So the villagers have decided to take positive action and are working round the clock at building a 6km road to the next village. full story

Jett Travolta 16, son of John Travolta and Kelly Preston, died yesterday during a family holiday in the Bahama’s. Few details have been released but a family spokesman has said that Jett suffered from seizures. His body was found in the bath tub on Friday Morning.
Lots of internet rumours have circulated over the last few years about whether Jett was Autistic, a condition which the Scientologists deny exists, but whether he was or not is now irrelevent.
His parents have been married for 17 years, which is no mean feat in the glare of Hollywood, and John loves flying so much that he has a couple of jets parked at his ranch ready to take off at a moments notice.
Jett was named after his fathers love of flying
Such a sad start to the year for his family, I doubt that we’ll see much of John’s infectious grin for a long long time.

Governor Sarah Palins long awaited grandson arrived on Sunday. It should be an occasion of joy, one to celebrate, but I read the announcement and sighed.
The baby has been named TRIPP, (matching his uncles’ Trig and Track nicely), the poor little blighter.
Couldn’t they have been more imaginative? How about Toss, Testes, Trap, or even Thick?
