There’s news this morning that the European Central Bank has decided to raise the amount of emergency credit available to Greek banks. The move is aimed to help banks there re-open. More on that. Plus, Google announces second quarter earnings later today. We’ll talk about how Wall Street has been worried about how much the company is bringing in – and how much it’s spending. Next: Rural America has long had a shortage of lawyers. In North Dakota the problem has been exacerbated by the Bakken oil boom. There is a huge unmet demand for legal work, and some young entrepreneurial lawyers are moving in.
