Major pipeline bursts lose millions of litres of water in Mumbai, India - 25 Mar 2010
No, the monsoon hasn't come early, in fact the Indian megacity of Mumbai population 13.6 million lost 3 million litres of water in a matter of hours as part of a spate of problems the city had to endure with several major pipelines bursting over the last few days. The city is dependent on the pipes for its fresh water supply and millions of litres are pumped everyday from surrounding resevoirs on the city limits. The massive loss of water has resulted in the imposition of a further 30% cut for the entire city till sunday.

Animals sculptures made from old plastic cutlery, America - 22 Feb 2010
ART FANS FORK OUT FOR PLASTIC FANTASTIC SCULPTURES
Art fans are fork-ing out a staggering GBP 7,800 for these animal sculptures made from old plastic cutlery found in a dustbin.
The models, which include a dog, eagle and fish, measure from 18 inches to eight feet long and contain up to 500 pieces of junk.
The largest creatures take nine months to make and sell for thousands of pounds.
Sayaka Ganz, 33, sorts everything plastic - from sunglasses and cutlery to baskets and cooking utensils - into 20 colour groups in her basement.
Some of her items are found in dustbins, some in charity shops and the rest are donated by friends and relatives.
The plastic is then tied onto a wire frame to create the unusual sculptures.
Sayaka prints photos showing animals from different angles so she can mark the lines of motion she wants to capture in her work.
She then does a separate sketch with measurements and the shape of the wire frame.
She said: "Once the frame is built I work very spontaneously, always keeping the photos close at hand but without a precise plan.
"All I know is the overall form the finished piece should fill."
Sayaka, from Indiana, United States, was born in Japan but later moved to Brazil and Hong Kong. Her multi-national upbringing has influenced her work.
She said: "I have been collecting plastic objects for over two years now and I have about 20 bins of colour sorted plastics in my basement.
"I only use objects that have been used or discarded by someone else.
"Sometimes I go bin-diving and sometimes I take donations from friends and family.
"I have always loved all sorts of puzzles, starting with jigsaw puzzles when I was little.
"My sculptures are like three-dime...
