Omara Portuondo and Chucho Valdés
On tour in Europe to promote their new album, simply entitled “Omara and Chucho”, the legendary Cuban musicians had the audience jumping out of their seats when they performed at Rome’s Auditorium Parco della Musica.
Trichet’s Double Bind
The President of the European Central Bank faces a dilemma – to fight rising inflation in Europe by raising interest rates or to keep rates low to make life bearable for the highly indebted “peripheral” countries like Ireland, Portugal and Spain.
Double Dip?
A double dip in the economy is a bit like getting a bad cold, recovering and feeling slightly better but then slipping back into pneumonia. To continue the medical analogy, the result could mean a long-term weakening of the immune system.
