The research was carriedout in July and is based on theresponses of nearly 1,200people.

SCP researcher Paul Dek -ker said the low confidence isdue to the collapse of the cab-inet in April. ‘People felt thatnothing was being done tosolve the economic crisis. Wewere about to have the fifthelection in 10 years and thatis not good for public confi-dence.’

WASHINGTON(AFP) - TheUnited States yesterday re-moved an Iranian oppositiongroup based abroad, the Peo-ple's Mujahedeen of Iran, fromits blacklist of designated ter-ror groups after years of in-tense lobbying.

The move, ending a com-plex legal battle foughtthrough US and Europeancourts, came just days ahead ofan October 1 deadline set by aUS appeals court by whichSecretary of State Hillary Clin-ton had to decide on the fate ofthe group.

Fitch said "weaker than ex-pected growth and fiscal out-turns in 2012 have increasedpressure on the UK's 'AAA'rating".

ees botched a controversiallast-play call to decide a game,American football returned tonormal.

The Ravens stretched theirhome win streak to 13 games,

the NFL's longest current run,and improved to 3-1 by stop-ping a late threat from winlessCleveland.

"With the wisdom we haveand the young players we areadding into our defense, 3-1 ishuge after the first quarter (ofthe season)," Ravens line-backer Ray Lewis said.

Union referees whistledpenalties for the first time fol-lowing three weeks of replace-ment officials before theleague and the referees' unionagreed to a new eight-yearcontract on Wednesday nightto end a lockout that began inJune.

Gene Steratore, beginninghis 10th NFL season as a ref-eree, and each person in a six-man crew that averaged 10years of experience tipped hiscap to the crowd as the offi-cials walked onto the field tocheers, a rare treat for them.

Their return came after apoor call by replacements onthe last play of the game gaveSeattle a Monday victory overGreen Bay, sparking criticismthat even had US PresidentBarack Obama calling for anend to the lockout.

"We're sorry to have putfans through that," NFL com-missioner Roger Goodell said.

The first penalty against thehome side came 3:42 into thegame and sparked the usualchorus of boos at the referees,one fan's sign noting, "We'reglad we can boo the real refs."

Ravens' supporters spentmuch of their time cheeringdespite Baltimore becomingthe first NFL team since 1939to play four games in only 18days.

Flacco scored on a 1-yardtouchdown run 5:07 into thethird quarter but the Brownspulled within 16-10 on a 51-yard Phil Dawson field goal.

Baltimore's Cary Williamsintercepted a Brandon Weedenpass to the left sideline and re-turned the ball 63 yards for a

touchdown to give the Ravensa 23-10 lead with 15 secondsremaining in the third quarter.

Dawson kicked field goalsof 50 and 52 yards to pullCleveland within 23-16 andthe Browns drove from their10-yard line to the Ravens' 33in the dying seconds but wereunable to deliver a tyingtouchdown.

The Ravens opened thescoring 2:03 into the secondquarter on Flacco's 18-yardtouchdown pass to TorreySmith.

Smith played for the sec-ond time since his brother,Tevin Jones, was killed in amotorcycle crash last Sundaymorning. Jones' funeral willbe today.

The Browns, who alongwith New Orleans are the onlywinless teams in the NFL, fellto 0-4. Going back to last sea-son, the Browns have dropped10 games in a row, 13 of 14overall. They have lost nine ina row to the Ravens.

The NFL's three unde-feated teams after three games-- the Atlanta Falcons, ArizonaCardinals and Houston Texans-- each play at home on Sun-day against foes who have losttwo of their first three games.

The Falcons will play hostto Carolina while Arizona en-tertains Miami and Houstonwill meet Tennessee.

And the Green Bay Pack-ers, 1-2, will try to bounceback from the last-play loss atSeattle when they play host toNew Orleans.
