The history of Baduk stretches back some 3000 years, and the rules have

probably originated in China or the Himalayas. Mythology has it that the
future of Tibet was once decided over a Baduk board, when the Buddhist ruler
refused to go into battle; instead he challenged the aggressor to a game of
Baduk to avoid bloodshed. In the Far East, where it originated, Baduk

Nah. Economy runs like this: You first produce and earn some money. You
then go out consuming. Still you don't overconsume. You save some which
becomes capitals that can be invested to grow more wealth.
What Americans did was they produced less and less and yet consumed like
there's no tomorrow. To fill the gap, they took on an abysmal load of
debt that they now cannot pay back. The only thing that steadily grows

German economic growth slowed to a near standstill in the second quarter of

The surprise deceleration in activity in Europe’s largest economy will add
to fears of a global slowdown and possible double-dip recession in some
countries – and will complicate the challenge facing eurozone policymakers
as they seek to combat the region’s escalating debt crisis.
