Women rapists in S.A.

theaustralian.news.com.au

A bit of a twist. How is that done with an unwilling male victim? And if he was willing, is it rape?

Phil > The world economies can't seem to get traction.

I don't know. This morning I was listening to CNBC and the "expert" from Singapore was saying how well the economies in Asia were doing especially Japan, China and S. Korea. All the currencies in the East were being revalued upwards against the USD and this was impacting on share prices. But he was adamant that things were looking very rosy.

> A FED increase in interest rates might help

They seem to be going down at the moment.

> gold bounced up a little with all the adverse political news

Gold share indices are technically strong for a rebound. Gold is lagging.

> More political problems for US.

They put both feet in "it" and instead of getting out they got in deeper. To me, Iraq is a monstrous debacle for the US and, frankly, I don't know what they should do about it now or even can?

> This article from Germany

You forgot to post the link.
