Bhopal Gas Tragedy
Some 25 years after the gas leak, 390 tons of toxic chemicals abandoned at the UCIL plant continue to leak and pollute the groundwater in the region and affect thousands of Bhopal residents who depend on it, though there is some dispute as to whether the chemicals still stored at the site pose any continuing health hazard.
Over two decades since the tragedy, certain civil and criminal cases remain pending in the United States District Court, Manhattan and the District Court of Bhopal, India, against Union Carbide, (now owned by Dow Chemical Company), with an Indian arrest warrant also pending against Warren Anderson, CEO of Union Carbide at the time of the disaster. Greenpeace asserts that as the Union Carbide CEO, Anderson knew about a 1982 safety audit of the Bhopal plant, which identified 30 major hazards and that they were not fixed in Bhopal but were fixed at the company's identical plant in the US. In June 2010, seven ex-employees, including the former chairman of UCIL, were convicted in Bhopal of causing death by negligence and sentenced to two years imprisonment and a fine of about $2,000 each, the maximum punishment allowed by law. An eighth former employee was also convicted but had died before judgment was passed.
Saina Nehwal
She is first Indian woman to win the Indonesian Open Super Series.
Previously coached by S. M. Arif, a Dronacharya Award winner, Saina is the reigning Indian national junior champion and is currently coached by Indonesian badminton legend Atik Jauhari since August 2008.
Her professional career is managed by GloboSport.
Saina was born in Hisar, Haryana, India and spent her complete life in city of Hyderabad. Her foray into the world of badminton was influenced by her father Dr. Harvir Singh, a scientist at the Directorate of Oilseeds Research, Hyderabad and her mother Usha Nehwal, both of whom were former badminton champions in Haryana.

Father's Day
Father's Day is a day honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society. It is celebrated on the third Sunday of June in 55 countries and on other days elsewhere. It complements Mother's Day, the celebration honoring mothers. It is a widely known celebration.
History
Father's Day is a celebration inaugurated in the early twentieth century to complement Mother's Day in celebrating fatherhood and male parenting. It is also celebrated to honor and commemorate our forefathers. Father's Day is celebrated on a variety of dates worldwide and typically involves gift-giving, special dinners to fathers, and family-oriented activities. The first observance of Father's Day is believed to have been held on June 19, 1910 through the efforts of Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington
Commercialization
The Associated Men's Wear Retailers formed a National Father's Day Committee in New York City in the 1930s, which was renamed in 1938 to National Council for the Promotion of Father's Day and incorporated several other trade groups.[6] This council had the goals of legitimizing the holiday in the mind of the people and managing the holiday as a commercial event in a more systematic way, in order to boost the sales during the holiday.[6] This council always had the support of Dodd, who had no problem with the commercialization of the holiday and endorsed several promotions to increase the amount of gifts.[7] In this aspect she can be considered the opposite of Anna Jarvis, who actively opposed all commercialization of Mother's Day.[7]

Blood donation is safe
World Blood Donor Day is celebrated every year on June 14 to show appreciation for the people who have donated blood and helped save peoples’ lives. On this occasion we tell you all that you should know before you decide to donate and accept blood
Any special instructions I could follow before I donate whole blood?
Before you leave for blood donation you should eat a good meal that consists of iron-rich foods – like red meat, green leafy vegetables, oats etc. also you should consume plenty of fluids one to two hours before donating blood.
Will donating hurt?
You will go through very little discomfort while donating blood. The sensation is simliar to pinching your skin.
Will I feel dizzy after blood donation?
Most probably you will not. Those helping you with the donation take precautions before, during, and after the donation to ensure that you are safe. They will monitor your condition through the entire donation process for any signs of dizziness or giddiness. All donors are also asked to remain seated after the donation to rest and have some biscuits before they leave.
Should I eat before donating blood?
You should have a healthy preferably low fat meal within two to three hours of donating blood. You should also have refreshments after you have donated blood
How long does it take my body to replace the blood I donated?
The body immediately works on restoring the lost blood. The fluid that was stored in the tissues returns to the blood stream. Red blood cell production speeds up. A donor's blood volume is more or less restored within a few hours after donation. Red blood cells replace themselves more slowly.

Before you leave for blood donation you should eat a good meal that consists of iron-rich foods – like red meat, green leafy vegetables, oats etc. also you should consume plenty of fluids one to two hours before donating blood.
Will donating hurt?
You will go through very little discomfort while donating blood. The sensation is simliar to pinching your skin.
Will I feel dizzy after blood donation?
Most probably you will not. Those helping you with the donation take precautions before, during, and after the donation to ensure that you are safe. They will monitor your condition through the entire donation process for any signs of dizziness or giddiness. All donors are also asked to remain seated after the donation to rest and have some biscuits before they leave.
Should I eat before donating blood?
You should have a healthy preferably low fat meal within two to three hours of donating blood. You should also have refreshments after you have donated blood
How long does it take my body to replace the blood I donated?
The body immediately works on restoring the lost blood. The fluid that was stored in the tissues returns to the blood stream. Red blood cell production speeds up. A donor's blood volume is more or less restored within a few hours after donation. Red blood cells replace themselves more slowly.

Nadal regains French Open crown and No.1 spot
Nadal was simply too powerful on clay for the Swede who 12 months ago ended the Spaniard's 31-match, four titles win streak in Paris in stunning fashion with a four sets, fourth round triumph.
The win, Nadal's fifth here since 2005, put him second on the all-time list of French Open winners, one behind Bjorn Borg whose last title here came in 1981. He is now 38-1 in matches played at Roland Garros.
It was also the second time he had won the French Open title without dropping a set, having first achieved that feat in 2008.
For Soderling it was another cruel finish to the tournament having defeated top seed and title-holder Roger Federer in the quarter-finals. Last year he beat top seed and title-holder Nadal, but lost to Federer in the final.
With a morning storm having chased away the sweltering temperatures that marked Saturday's women's final, cool, overcast conditions greeted the two men as they stepped out onto the Philippe Chatrier centre court.
Fifth seed Soderling opened confidently with three big serves at around 220 kilometres an hour and it was the Swede who procured the first break point of the match in the third game.
He failed to convert that though, hitting a backhand long and was made to pay the price in the following game.
Soderling was in control of the rally with a second break point against him, but he mistakenly left alone a Nadal crosscourt backhand, thinking it was going out. Instead it dipped at the last second and landed just inside the baseline.
The Swede was going for broke with his sledgehammer forehand, while Nadal was content to soak up the pressure and destablize his opponent with his high-bouncing, top spin shots down both flanks.
Soderling saved a further break point to close to 3-4 before Nadal also needed to save one in the following game as he stretched his lead to 5-3.
The fifth seed saved three set points from 0-40 down in the following game, but Nadal wrapped up the set in 55 minutes on serve in the following game.
With dark clouds gathering over Roland Garros, Soderling had a total of four break points for a 2-0 lead early in the second set but, despite having Nadal on the ropes on three of those occasions, he failed to take his chances.
Once again the man from Mallorca made him pay a heavy price as he broke the Swede's serve to love in the fifth game to lead 3-2.
The match was starting to slip away from Soderling and his confidence took another blow when Nadal broke again two games later to lead 5-2. He comfortably served out for a two sets to nil lead.
A relentless front-runner, Nadal scented victory and he moved in for the kill by capturing Soderling's serve to open the third set.
Soderling's last glimpse of a chance came when he had break point in the following game, but a big Nadal first serve slammed shut the door.
The Spaniard simply needed to hold serve four times to win the tournament and that he did comfortably before falling onto his back in triumph.
At 24, Nadal had won his seventh Grand Slam title joining the likes of John McEnroe, Mats Wilander and 1920s French legend Rene Lacoste.

Schiavone clinches historic French Open triumph
Francesca Schiavone became the first Italian woman to win a Grand Slam singles title on Saturday after defeating Australian favourite Samantha Stosur 6-4, 7-6 (7/2) in the French Open final.
Victory made the 29-year-old the second oldest first-time Grand Slam women's champion.
It also shattered Stosur's aim of ending Australia's 30-year wait for a women's champion at one of the four majors, a streak stretching back to Evonne Goolagong's 1980 Wimbledon win.
Schiavone, who had lost to Stosur in the first round here last year, got her tactics spot on, trumping the seventh seed's power game with clever variations of pace and movement.
She took the ball early, stepped inside and utilised her greater confidence at the net and with her volley to ensure the 26-year-old Stosur was kept on the defensive.
"I didn't prepare anything to say, because I thought that if I did then this would never happen," said Schiavone, who follows compatriot Adriano Panatta, who was men's champion here in 1976, into the Italian record books.
"I felt amazing today. I feel like a champion.
"But I want to say to Samantha that she is a great person. You deserve to be here next time. You are young, you can still do it."
Stosur paid tribute to world number 17 Schiavone, only the fourth player from outside the top 10 to win the Roland Garros title.
"Well done Francesca. You played a great tournament," said the Australian.
Schiavone, one of the few women to still employ a one-handed backhand, carved out the only break of the first set in the ninth game before claiming the opener in the 10th when an unsettled Stosur netted a backhand return.
The Australian, who had reached the semifinals in 2009, made it to the final the hard way, having to defeat former world number ones Justine Henin, Serena Williams, against whom she saved a match point, and Jelena Jankovic.
But unlike her fellow Grand Slam final debutant, she was struggling to make any impression until her fortunes briefly turned.
Having fought off two break points in the third game of the second set, Stosur finally got the measure of her opponent to break and hold for a 4-1 advantage.
However, 17th-seeded Schiavone bravely regained the break in the seventh game when Stosur went dramatically off the boil and backed it up with a hold for 4-4.
The set was decided by a tiebreak and Schiavone went to four match points with a sweet drop volley which she converted into the title when Stosur unleashed the last of many untidy returns which ballooned into the stands.
The emotional Italian collapsed to the ground in joy before, covered in the red dirt of Paris, she clambered up into the crowd to spark a wild celebration with family and friends.
