4) This week's summary

of under-reported news

Compiled by Bob Nixon

Two nights of violent riots broke out in northern Paris suburbs after two North African teens were killed when their motorcycle collided with a police car.

The current mortgage meltdown, caused by the subprime lending crisis, could push the American economy into a recession, as the number of foreclosure filings has doubled since last year.
