Financial news and tech news and other things

Firstly, I received a comment regarding my post on Pastor Daniels from someone who claims to have been in the area at the time. I am not sure I can post it because it includes someone's name and they are not a public figure.

Yahoo - Good Morning America - Siri's Going Through Puberty, but Not Fast Enough. Basically the article is complaining that the software assistant called Siri that comes with Apple products is not predicting what you will do well enough.

Washington Post - Bloomberg - World economic group calls for global exchange of tax information to fight evasion. A one world tax organization, how global.

PhysOrg - Japan experts to OK animal-human embryos test: reports (Update). Just another bad idea and one that shows no respect for human life.

Yahoo - Daily Ticker - Bernanke & Fed Don’t Know How to Quit QE: David Stockman.

Yahoo - Reuters - Dolce and Gabbana Sentenced to Jail for Tax Evasion.

CNN - Physicians group labels obesity a disease. The important thing is not whether or not it is true because it is not a disease, the important thing is that they can make more money off it if they say it is true.

Yahoo - Reuters - Euro ministers to decide direct bank recapitalization rules on Thursday. And they are deciding that in the future they will do "Bail-ins", just like the IMF, BOE, FDIC, Canada...

New York Times - China’s Great Uprooting: Moving 250 Million Into Cities. They didn't build all those brand new empty cities for nothing.

Yahoo - Reuters - End to Fed stimulus, China slowdown spark world sell-off.

Lets see, gold is down from $1,800 to about $1,280. Don't buy gold. You cannot eat it, you cannot use it as currency and it is easily stolen.

Well the Asian markets are beginning to wake up and it is not pretty. The Nikkei is down about 300 points or another 2+ percent. Tomorrow should be interesting on Wall Street.
