In January 2010 sales of the M800 were down 55% over the same period the previous year as Indians opt for cars with features...
...with all the makings of a Greek tragedy. The once proud and powerful former Prime Minister of Israel, already forced from office by allegations of sleaze, faces three separate criminal cases, including charges of double billing charities and nonprofit organizations for travel expenses and receiving some $150,000 in cash-stuffed envelopes from a favor-seeking supporter. Olmert pleaded not guilty to all counts in December...
