[Entertainment Daily] Pammie fuels credit crunch rumours: PENELOPE CRUZ has further fuelled speculation she's pregnant with boyfriend JAVIER BARDEM's child after the Spanish stars were spotted leaving a gynaecologist's office together last week. The couple was snapped exiting the Ruber Clinic in Madrid on Thursday (17Sep09) - just a week after Cruz furiously denied she was expecting at the Toronto Film Festival in Canada, where she walked away from one interviewer who questioned her about the baby news.

[Nick Robinson's Newslog] BBC - Nick Robinson's Newslog: Cameron's economic problem: we would never have had the money to invest in Schools and Hospitals and now that the American sub-prime market has collapsed we'd be in the same credit crunch but with public services completely dessimated. At least real investment was made in public infrastructure when we could afford it, it seemed that we could never afford it under the Tories (I know, I was educated in decrepit state Schools during Thatcher's years, leaking ceilings and shared dog eared reference books all round).

[Manhattan Real Estate: New York City Real Estate Tips] Today's Crunch: Amex/Merrill/Countrywide Oh My ”” Manhattan Real ...: Although it's been a fantastic momentum play but at the end of the day $900 an ounce for a lump of metal that it by and large only being bought for Indian housewives jewellery at the moment doesn't seem that prudent. I suspect we'll see central banks continuing to diversify their asset base away from both the USD but also gold.

[Whatanews4u.Sports] BBC - Stephanomics: Walking the line: The suggestions in 15 are sensible but I think people haven't quite realised how far we have to go to get near to a balanced budget. We may need to accept that we can't afford an NHS that pays for all kinds of life-prolonging treatments or an education system that subsidises joke degrees.

[LusakaTimes.com] Global economic crisis to affect Zambia - Fundanga | LusakaTimes.com: This is what i said area on.The tourism Sector is already recording very low number of tourists.European countries might resort to reduce foreign aid to African Countries.That wil in turn affect the budget for countries like Zambia,whose lager percentage of its budget depends on foreign aid.That reduction wil force the govrnment to reduce its allocation of funds,to different sectors.Meaning the teachers,doctors,lecturers at the Universities and other civil servants might not see an increase in there Salaries.Hence Strikes wil be the order of the day. Reducing the number of ministers therefore,would have been the wise thing for RB to do.But he has maintaned the bloated cabinet.Copper which has been a back bone of Zambia,s economy,cant be depended upon as its price has reduced.The employers are considering retrenching a number of employees as a result of this problem.RB wil have a tough time to rule this country,with this global financial crisis.The quetion is wil RB and his team,manage to contain the situation

[Reason Magazine - Hit & Run] Remember This Catchphrase: "Maybe Too Little, Always Too Late ...: As a sign of the economy, I got some good indicators from my business - we do some corporate training, the money from it is the difference from paying our bills and base salary and making sweet bank. Here in Texas we're feeling a little bit of a crunch (no raises this year at my hotel and forcing hours down to 32 a week for two weeks each month but no personnel cuts).

[My Money Blog] Financial Meltdown Explained: Greed, Leverage, and Keeping Up With ...: As any bubble before, it started with easy supply of money, subsidized by our government in form of programs promoting “home ownership”, and directly on indirectly supplied by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac etc. This was done deliberately to revive the economy after dot com bubble and 9-11 disaster (remember Dow Jones index hovering just over 7000 mark?) to fend of scare of global war on terror and its effect on economy.

[The Rates Blog] Top 10 at 10: Massive baby boomer wealth - Blogging On Interest ...: The list of phone calls is not the largest banks, because some of the biggest are hardly represented (e.g., Wells Fargo), it’s not the most troubled banks (e.g., Bank of America had little contact), and it’s not even investment banker-types who were central to the most stressed markets (Morgan Stanley was not in the inner loop).  And small and medium-sized banks (and others) always bristle at the suggestion that their interests are in alignment with those of, say, Goldman Sachs.

[Manolo's Shoe Blog] Mammoth Crocs » Manolo's Shoe Blog: I do not own any of the fabulous designer shoes, I do not have the money….(I will gladly accept any size 8 Monolo, Chou, etc..that is no longer loved…) ***)sniff(*** I read the Monolo for the witty reparte, the amusing insight on the lives of the rich and foolish, the help on finding sales on clothes that fit, and as an escape from the mundane. I have never found the site to be arrogant, judgemental, or materialistic.

[Cafferty File] Cafferty File: Tell Jack how you really feel Blog Archive - Is ...: No, the Stimulus Package is not “generational theft.” Instead, it is the ransom that we taxpayers are having to pay in order to secure the release of our economy from the “kidnappers” who bled it almost to death by unnecessary wars, an unregulated market place, and overpaid, incompetent CEO’s who were more interested in their “bottom line” than the welfare and health of their own country..

[David McWilliams] Minister and his mandarins forecast neither boom nor bust”¦so why ...: That’s a particularly nice analogy. Ireland does have something that more closely represents a consensus socialist command economy inside the castle walls, and almost complete anarchy moderated by debt obligations outside of those walls.
