Rogue state North Korea is threatening to shut down an industrial development inside its borders which is also used by South Korea.
The Kaesong factory complex is the last major symbol of inter-Korean co-operation.
But a spokesman for North Korean leader Kim Jong-un’s office controlling the complex said today it would close the factory park just across the border in North Korea if Seoul continued to undermine its dignity.

If you’re still trying to scrape off a Mitt Romney bumper sticker, consider Eric Hartsburg face before you complain.
Hartsburg, of Indiana, got Mitt Romney’s campaign logo permanently tattooed on the side of his head for a cool $15,000 in October.

Even though he’ll be [...]

DYSON: When we see these kind of conflagrations, we’re able to point the finger and say, ‘Oh, how horrible it is’ — but we’re horrible, too, because we’ve quietly fueled and fomented the kind of unnecessary hostility towards Muslims that we ought to take a mirror at and look at ourselves.

No need to spend hours in front of a mirror perfecting paparazzi-worthy poses as a new study suggests a scientifically proven pattern.

Via Peter Tchir of TF Market Advisors,
The last hour has spewed forth more disingenuous clap-trap from European finance ministers. From ‘sufficiency of the firewall’ to the ‘absurdity of Spain needing a bailout’, it beggars belief that these humans can look at themselves in the mirror every morning (as they feel the ‘need’ to lie’ – or are simply ignorant of the reality).
European Sovereign Yields have been under pressure for most of [...]

And now China’s largest farming company is trying to lock down acreage for more soybeans. It also unveiled a plan to grow wheat, corn, vegetables, fruit and even wine – all [...]

On the other hand, the observation that China takes 6,000 jobs for every billion dollars in incremental trade deficit, is spot on.
