...anything, it is Chettinad chicken. This rich curry is a staple of Indian menus from Bombay to Birmingham, England. But the desert region may have tasted a hint of a more enticing asset. Many of the once palatial homes of its former merchants, who made their riches during the heyday of the Raj, are up for grabs. By some estimates, as many as 10,000 of these crumbling structures are spread across the sands, awaiting rescue. Authorities hope that some will be turned into hotels or museums, boosting the local economy...

...management switch at Magellan is yet another attempt to re-instill the kind of bold stock-picking of Lynch's heyday. "We have a very different business model than Vanguard or American," says Fidelity spokeswoman Anne Crowley. "Half our revenues come from non-fund, fee-related businesses like the brokerage business, where we are a significant player." Indeed, Lange is expected to emulate Lynch's method of mixing up the portfolio with some smaller companies. Even with the fund having lost half its assets, it remains a behemoth, which leaves Lange confronting the same hurdle that tripped up Stansky...

CNBC has a long way to go to recapture the success of its bull-market heyday. Ad revenues last year were just $140 million, vs. $383 million in 2001, reports Kagan Research. Overall ratings remain depressed, even though onetime rival CNNfn went dark last year. And a new financial channel is expected at Fox next spring, so there is a sense of urgency in the place. CNBC, a division of GE's NBC Universal, has tried everything to reinvent itself, including going Hollywood. That failed experiment led to the cancellation of prime-time shows with hosts Dennis Miller, John McEnroe...

...metropolis are scarce; Osaka prefecture's unemployment rate of 6.4% was the third highest in the nation last year. Even if he could find work, Ijiri says he feels unprepared to join the winner-takes-all rat race of postindustrial Japan. He longs for his father's era, the heyday of Japan Inc., when young adults were whisked directly from college into a womblike corporate career, where they would be sheltered by a paternalistic business culture for life. "People like me who aren't particularly talented at anything are happier with the old system of lifetime employment and seniority-based...
