ISLAMABAD, Sept 20 (Reuters) – A suspected car bomb caused a huge explosion outside the Marriott Hotel in the Pakistani capital on Saturday and the Dawn television station said at least 17 people had been killed.

A reporter at the scene told CNN that as many as 200 people were feared to be inside the building.

Television images showed flames and smoke pouring out of the hotel and bodies being carried away.

“The explosion happened as a car reached the barricade outside the hotel,” a senior police official said, adding that it appeared to have been a suicide attack. Read the rest of this entry »

The dollar surged to a two-year high against the pound and a six-month peak against the euro on Friday, as fears about spreading economic gloom triggered a sell-off in commodities.

Against sterling, the US currency notched up its 11th consecutive day of gains – its longest uninterrupted rise in more than 35 years – as markets became increasingly convinced that the US was best-placed to weather the global downturn. Read the rest of this entry »

A wise old man once told me that, “if you have to drive around town all day honking your horn, you must not be sure it works.” Translated for you non Southern folk, that means you and others have doubts about you, and you need to make sure they know “you” work by, “telling and showing them every chance you get.”

He kept taunting me to watch his left hand, “watch my left, watch my left”, he said. I was dumbfounded. What in the world is he talking about, I thought? Then BLAM! He knocked piss, fire and vinegar out of me with his right.
