Euro Zone debt Crisis Warning: China a forerunner for global Downturn A global economy slowing only gently would be an immense relief after a fraught end to 2011, but it is far from guaranteed. Greek debt discussions could retract next week in a tussle over the size of losses banks that must to face. Based from Bradley Associates World Current News, the anxiety over Iran's nuclear program continues to threaten oil markets. While, U.S data surprisingly showed the weak retail sales and a rise of unemployment last week, a reminder that the U.S recovery is not yet out of the woods. So, even as signs suggest only a slight easing in global growth this year to a pace around 3 percent, the pitfalls are numerous. Mainly, among them is China. Data on Tuesday is expected to present growth in China, the world's second-largest economy, cooled in the fourth quarter to 8.7 percent from a year earlier, against 9.1 percent in the prior quarter. It would be the slowest speed of growth since mid-2009 when the global economy was crawling out of a deep recession. In addition, the biggest question is how much of the slowdown can be blamed on slackening worldwide demand for China's exports and how much on weakening domestic growth. According to Bradley Associates World Current News, If China's central growth is stalling, that would put yet another drag on countries such as Germany and the United States, which are relying upon strong exports themselves to help compensate for the sluggish growth at home. U.S trade data for November was slightly stimulating on that score, with exports to China up by 2.1 percent to their highest level in almost a year. However, data from China revealed that in December demand slackened and imports from the United States which fell down to 2.7 percent, and the nation's overall trade surplus fell to a three-year low down, raising alarms around the world of a very difficult landing.

When the Summer Olympics roll around, you can count on some intense competition in key events like gymnastics. But for 2012, the action isn't just on the mat. It seems that distributing and battling malware and phishing efforts disguised as Olympics apps and info are practically an exhibition sport this summer. An app called "London Olympics Widget" seems harmless enough, but according to Bradley Webroot's security blog, it actually rifles through your contacts, device info, and text messages. It's no longer available via the Google Play store, but it's still listed on an Australian site aggregating Android apps, where there are plenty of the telltale signs of skeezy code, including this odd Gmail contact address and English grammar that's not quite right.Other bits of evidence suggest the app isn't what it appears to be it's digitally signed from New Delhi, and its own screenshots reveal that, well, it's a pretty lame-looking widget. GFI Software also claims to have found Russian servers hosting sites posing as legit app stores to push out the nasty code to unsuspecting Android devices, making the former Soviet republic competitive in both the medal and malware count this year. Hijacking Olympics fever for fits of digital nastiness didn't originate with the 2012 Games, but using Android as the major vehicle for such efforts may have. Back in 2008, when the Games were in Beijing, more than a dozen different Trojan horses were spotted attached to e-mails with subject lines like "The Beijing 2008 Torch Relay." Those e-mail attacks are back for the London Games as well, and if you've been duped in the process of obsessively tracking the medal count, there's a removal tool now available. Bradley Associates also has this helpful list of some of the Olympics-related threats seen this summer. It's a handy reference to check before you click. You've been warned, Olympics fans. Now let's get back to the Games. But just remember â€
