True. Daphne gave him too much credit this time.

It has been months since his name was mentioned in the papers in connection with criminal cases.

Maybe his mobile has gone dead and he cannot pester journalists in order to make sure his name is mentioned?  Or maybe he lost too many cases lately and does not want his name connected with less than stellar performances by Malta&#039;s &quot;leading criminal lawyer. 

After all, did he, not long ago, not boast that every project he undertook was 100% successful?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Boys find it very convenient to have their own house and still live with their parents.

They think that the mother is their servant for life. Franco being an only child(am I right?)finds it 
very difficult to leave his dear mum behind.What&#039;s wrong about that? Mums love to serve their offspring and become jealous of their son&#039;s partner.They think that they were robbed of their child.It is difficult to accept the empty nest.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Franco is not an only child. Empty nests are difficult only for women who never worked and still don&#039;t, which means their sole occupation is taken away from them.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Oh, so this means that he still considers himself to be part of one of those two parties.

But if we believe Joseph Muscat, Debono is technically wrong.  Malta is actually the only country in Europe with one party in Parliament.  Thats because the one in Opposition is a &#039;Moviment.&#039;

And if we believe Joseph Muscat even further, then Malta should have no parties in Parliament, because &quot;the days of political parties are over.&quot;

Now how about that for &#039;normality.&#039;]]></description>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debt-to-GDP_ratio

The level of sovereign debt is just slightly over the normal criteria used to make a risk assessment on repayment feasibiliy.  

But then practically all this debt is owed to the Maltese so technically there is no serious threat from foreign creditors should there be a case of default.  

Should rating deteriorate and the cost to finance this debt increases, it will clearly end up in the pockets of he Maltese and in all probability turnaround in the same Maltese economy.]]></description>
