New Study finds that Copper and Iron from Pipes May Contribute to Alzheimer's and Heart Disease in People Over 50. The Study Recommends Zinc Supplements and Filtered Water

New World Currency Wouldn't Solve Imbalances On Its Own, Says Bank Of England Chief Mervyn King

So, it's true, New World Currency won't save us.

It is no surprise that much of the attention over Mervyn King’s speech on Tuesday night has focused on his double warning to the Government that: 1. this recovery will feel very downbeat for some time and 2. Alistair Darling should beware the market and slash the deficit in the Budget this year. After all, although the Governor may have felt he was doing his best to avoid being seen as overly critical of Downing Street, that wasn’t… Continue
