"Bernie Ecclestone has admitted he is not capable of solving Formula One's financial problems" : Bernie you're past it. The moment that F1 requires leadership and vision F1 is "headed up" way past their sell by date "exec"'s, short term (high yield) TV contracts leading to total disinterest from...

Interesting project Mike, Seems you are on track to build a Lotus 47D ( LOTUS-GKN 47D - THE CAR THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN) . You will need to increase wheelbase and fabricate a rear chassis to get around the V8. Great project, keep posting

Stephen: Bosch, Siemens and Neff whitegoods are all produced by "Siemens Hausgeraten GmbH" and yes they are reducing cost/increasing margens by going to the east...........For "longlife" whitegoods only mark left over here is Miele, but expensive!

YOU HAVE TO LOVE A GOOD NURSE A policeman was rushed to the hospital with an inflamed appendix. The doctors operated and advised him that all was well; however,the policeman kept feeling something pulling at his pubic hairs. Worried that it might be a second surgery and the doctors hadn't...

Jeff your Medicare cost focus does not stand-up. Here in France our Medicare cost (hospitals, medication, doctors, nurses etc) cost 12% of our gross domestic product (GDP) and not the lowest in the EU. In the USA your current Medicare is reported to be 14%......So we get a cheaper deal through...

Very intresting artical, thanks for posting. It astonishing how those "bits" of information seem to be beyond the grasp of financial journalists! So: "London-based Barclays Plc borrowed $64.9 billion and Frankfurt-based Deutsche Bank AG got $66 billion" explains why they did not require...

I don't know what press covarage you've all seen but it said that one line was taken out this report before being published. This line criticized the fact that the stall alarms were very simular to all other alarms and so did not priorities the actions for the pilots. Certain when these babies...

Hi Chris, Saw part of your spirited drive (last on the grid to 2nd?) at Nogaro during the Tour de France. Saw that you agreed for a film crew to strap a camara to your roof. If you recovered a copy any chance of sharing?
