Banks collapse, stocks markets crash, billions flow to shore up the financial system. Yet Belgians responded to what may be the worst financial crisis in a generation Monday in their own quirky way: by going on strike...
...more. Now suppliers, loath to extend credit even to longtime partners, are insisting on cash as quickly as possible, sometimes in as little as 15 days - which strains Mitternight's ability to manage his cash flow.

The canyon-like underpasses and grand boulevards are meant to help traffic flow around the capital. But since a truck packed with 600 kg of high-grade explosives rammed into the Marriott hotel on Sept. 20, city officials have scrambled to reverse the plan, hoisting in concrete barriers to slow traffic, setting up police checkpoints, and seriously beefing up the "red-zone" security area around parliament, the prime minister's house, other government...
