Thu, 26 Jan 2012 12:30:01 +0100 (Reuters) - A stray dog sleeps on a snow-covered street in Bucharest January 26, 2012. Heavy snow and blizzards have swept across Romania over the past two days, not only causing chaotic traffic, blocking motorways and leaving hundreds stranded in snow, but also forcing the closure of the country's main Black Sea port.

Alexander has resigned in protest over a sponsorship deal with Dow Chemical because of the company's ties to the Bhopal gas disaster that killed thousands in India in 1984. The Games' organisers chose Dow to make the hundreds of plastic panels that will decorate the outside of the main stadium in a contract that has angered many Indians, including current and former Olympic athletes.

Thu, 26 Jan 2012 08:00:02 +0100 (Reuters) - A man cleans the steps in front of a covered statue of Mayawati, the chief minister of the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, in Lucknow January 16, 2012. Although she presides over one of the most poverty-plagued states of India -- its per-capita income is just above 50 percent of the national average -- Kumari Mayawati's extraordinary personal extravagance preserves a tradition set over the centuries by a succession of rulers in the plains of the river Ganges.
