BEIJING, Feb 20 2011 (IPS) – While new research indicates that China s overall suicide rate has been in decline for the last two decades, some segments of the population including urban males and the elderly are increasingly likely to take their own lives, the result of breakneck social change in the world s most populous country.

Precise figures have not been made available.

The U.K.’s gas supply has been extremely tight this winter, and the new sales would satisfy requirements for around 1.8 million British homes.Increasing demand via exports for a dirty, dangerous process is not something we think is a good idea.
The deal would mark the fir…
