To many of us in the developed western world it would appear that everyone and their dog now has a mobile phone. But we all need to remember that around 50% of the worlds population have never received or made a telephone call.
This really highlights the technological gulf that exists between the developed countries and the developing countries.

More and more people are deciding not to holiday abroad this year, instead preferring to stay at home and avoid the cost and stress of travelling. The credit crunch has affected a lot of people and many are finding themselves short of money to spend on luxuries like holidays. Combine the recession with the current strength of the euro against the pound, and it's really not surprising that the number of UK holidaymakers booking their holidays at traditionally popular European destinations like Spain and Portugal has plummeted.

When you take into consideration the live state of the North American economy and the forever increasing surge in gold,silver and platinum prices , it is no wonder people are taking out their unwanted gold and silver jewelry and are selling them to cash 4 gold brokers because they need to make some more income to pay off some extra bills and credit card accounts as a way to make their next mortgage payment.
If you are experiencing the same situation you will need to carefully do your research before selling your gold,silver or platinum to just any company in that there is a huge increase in the number of fraudulent cash for gold companies in the gold buying industry who will without conscience prey on your financial situation and pay a small percentage for your precious metal.
I realize that this behavior may not be fraudulent by definition, it is in any case, totally wrong and I want to warn those of you who might be considering trading your broken gold jewelry to be certain to refrain from dealing with businesses that are posing as gold brokers and to do business only with precious metal refineries or gold buyers that utilize their in-house precious metal refineries
The truth is, gold brokers are nothing more than a go-between, between you and a metal refiner and as a result they will pay you in the neighborhood of 1/3 of the value for your gold and instantly resell it directly to a gold refiner themselves thereby keeping the largest share and you receive a few measly dollars.
We still appear to be in the recession with eating out being less popular and hotel booking down, but in Wales people still appear to want to eat out, and enjoy the process, so long as the quality remains high. A subtle difference exists between price and quality.
Luxury hotels Wales or upmarket restaurants both share the same commitment to quality, which has more to do with their inherent sense of style and purpose than any notions of luxury.
There are some pretty idiotic criminals out there and some of them wear the most ridiculous disguises that even if you weren't a cool cop in the police glasses you would know were coming. Worst disguises of all time are?
Baseball Cap
I am not actually talking about the criminals that wear a baseball bat with a combination of other things but am talking about the criminals that just walk in wearing one of these caps and that is it.
Are the first glimmers of a housing market recovery in Sussex visible??According to the latest government figures, the housing market is showing signs of recovery.The only thing slowing it down appears to be a lack of properties on the market.

American Idol Judge Leaving!
It premiered in 2002, and since then has been an entertainment phenomenon.
I think the reason the majority of people that watched it were wanting to see the contestants when they first sang.
Recent years has seen a decline in the number of people,who in my opinion, made the show such a success.
The people who had no talent and thought they did were hiliarious! This was why I watched.
Its new season premieres Tuesday.
