    This article is about a company that was selling a range of wristbands called "Power Balance" and claimed they give you a competitive advantage over other athletes by interacting with the body's natural energy flow. They paid top athletes including David Beckham and other celebrities such as Robert De Niro and Gerard Butler. However there's no scientific proof that they actually work, they still sell for around £30 and the company expects to turnover £35 in 2010, all for selling plastic wristbands!

  • Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the IMF's managing director, warned that "we face the risk of a lost generation", adding: "When you lose your job, your health is likely to be worse. When you lose your job, the education of your children is likely to be worse. When you lose your job, social stability is likely to be worse – which threatens democracy and even peace. So we shouldn't fool ourselves. We are not out of the woods yet. And for the man in the street, a recovery without jobs doesn't mean much."
