Fivestar rated money managers. That is a total obviously of ten stars worth of advice, and as the rates rise. Its kind of like a cnbc soap opera. If that tenyear bond hits 3 , what is it going to mean for stocks . What is it going to mean for housing . Maybe even for the auto sector as borrowing costs move up.

Research some years ago but we now find the court of justice of the e. U. Is hindering progress by bringing into question the validity of the patient protecting research. Will the Prime Minister do what he can to clear this blockage on behalf of millions of people in this country who suffer longterm medical conditions . My hon. Friend makes an extremely serious point and i will look closely at it because it is a competitive advantage we have in this country that we took difficult decisions about stem cell research. Is important that we continue to lead in that area not only as he says for economic and scientific reasons but because we want to make sure longterm conditions, debilitating conditions, children with a disability and other concerns that we crack those problems for the future and without that level of research i dont believe we will. I will get what he says and write to him after. Is the Prime Minister proud of the growth of super pacs across this country including my own con

I want to thank you for all coming here today and braving the heat or for tuning in via the webcast or cspan for todays panel Event National insecurity agency, how the nsa surveillance programs undermined Internet Security. Since they first note and lakes all the controversy around the nsa has been focused on its programs to collect phone records under section 215 of the patriot act and its moderating of internet under section 202 under the fisa amended that been focused on the debate over how to reform the surveillance statutes.
