European Economy on the Brink

Investors, banks, speculators and national economies around the world are still watching Europe after yesterday's thirteenth summit in 21 months delayed action at least until a fourteenth summit on Wednesday. We hear about efforts to save the Euro and avoid another worldwide recession. Also, underwater homeowners get a boost, and WikiLeaks, the scourge of government secrecy, faces a financial blockade from financial companies that won't process contributions. Can it survive?
