This week's round-up!

It's been a sad and scary week politically with little news that is not about conflict so this round up will be a little short. Google is still fighting with European powers over 'right to be forgotten'. This time Europe is insisting that links removed from the local version of Google are also removed from the American versions, a request Google is expected to refuse. Strong performance in China has salvaged Apple's otherwise poor quarterly earnings as speculation grows over a new i-Phone.

Following on the theme from last week when I linked to the FT.com's series on water, this article considers what shale gas and fracking means for American energy consumption and independence. Th is is nice article from Forbes about bouncing back from early failure to go on and succeed as an entrepreneur and keeping failure in perspective. Finally a review of the Opening Ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. It's hot, we might as well watch the sport.
