1. One family in the garden parish and another in the nation's capital! That is exactly how the esteemed one has been living his life. One would never guess when he starts spewing words of morality. Amazingly, both households appear happy with the domestic arrangements. They say no one is being short-changed and a man's got to do what he's got to do.

Tough going for CEOs

2. It's been a rough year for CEOs. There are persistent reports that two more fat cats are about to walk, or perhaps pushed. One is never quite sure which, because in our corporate culture many things are swept under the carpet and the ubiquitous press release hides more than it reveals.

3. Some people complain that the law is never fair. Take the problem of night noises.

Noise nuisance is the same everywhere.
