Financing A Human Being
Let's look at a timeline spanning your investment's inception to maturity (a term best applied here in the financial sense, not the behavioral, which could take decades). We'll break it down from birth to age 5, 5 to 10, 10 to 15, and 15 to 18 with all the relative estimated costs included.
All numbers are projected for two-parent, single-child families, based largely upon U.S. Department of Agriculture statistics and adjusted for anticipated inflation. The final averages are calculated based on income brackets and regional cost of living. Many families will make do on less, some will (gulp) spend more. But bear in mind: These are best-case scenarios, assuming you enroll your child in an average daycare and public school. A child in poor health will cost substantially more. So will a kid who does his damnedest to fill his closet with skeletons, since you'll be left with the tab for fines, bail, counseling, and rehab.
Birth to age 5
Cost: about $80,000Some of us are inclined to rock 'n' roll all night, while others feel the need to breed — both can take heavy tolls. As for the latter, the life-changing event of parenthood may very well set you back 80 grand in the first five years alone. Hard to believe? Here's how it comes together:
Housing $28,831
Food $11,882
Transportation $10,477
Clothing $4,311
Health $5,040
Care/school $10,246
Miscellaneous $8,961
Total $79,748
Amazing, but again, these figures are based on projections from the government. If ever there existed a credible source for outrageous financial reports, it's the collection of our humble elected officials. This might be a good time to mix a stiff drink before proceeding.
Ages 5 to 10
Cost: about $79,000As your child's education begins, you continue to get schooled. The second half of your child's first decade will sting only a little less to the tune of about 79 big ones.
Housing $26,787 (-8%)
Food $13,244 (+11%)
Transportation $11,008 (+5%)
Clothing $4,515 (+5%)
Health $5,386 (+7%)
Care/school $8,754 (-15%)
Miscellaneous $9,277 (+4%)
Total $78,971
You were braced for expense hikes across the board, right? It doesn't quite work that way. That's why Ben Franklin didn't lump these in with the surefire threats of death and taxes. For example, kids need less fussy shelter than when they are born. Same goes for care and schooling, since he or she will be in grade school and need care less often. All other costs — especially food — require more out of your pocket.
The cost of raising a teenager…

text: Q&A on living trusts posted 7/7/2014 in Trust Living trusts are an exceptionally useful way to manage family finances today. Unfortunately, trusts are also a mystery to most people, as evidenced by the variety of questions fielded by our specialists. The more people know about trusts, how they work and what their benefits are, the happier we are. Accordingly, here are some of the questions we get most often, and the answers.What is a living trust?A living trust is a legal mechanism for property management, embodied in a trust agreement. The grantor creates the trust and transfers prop- erty to a trustee, who manages theproperty, according to the terms of the trust, for trust beneficiaries. The grantor may also be a beneficiary. Trusteeship is governed by a well-established body of law that includes fiduciary duties owed by the trustee to the beneficiaries.Fiduciary duties?What does that mean?Stated most simply, a trustee has a duty to put the interests of the trust beneficiaries ahead of his or her own. Self-dealing is not allowed.For example, an irrevocable trust set up for Walt Disney's grandchildren was recently in the news. One of the private trustees had used trust assets for real estate transactions from which he personally profited. In a lawsuit to remove him as trustee for violating his fiduciary duty, he initially defended his actions by arguing that the trust had profited as well; it was not harmed by his actions. That's not the test, under the well-established law of fiduciary duty. The private trustee resigned before the case went to trial.What are the advantages of a living trust?Key living trust benefits include:• financial protection in the event of incapacity—conservatorship may be avoided.• probate avoidance—uninterrupted financial protectionfor beneficiaries.• professional asset management—provided a professionaltrustee, such as us, serves as trustee.Are there any disadvantages?A living trust is more complicated to execute than is a will—assets must be retitled in order to be owned by the trust, for example. The cost to create an estate plan thatincludes a living trust will be higher than the fee for drafting a routine will. There may be trustee's fees to be paid.For many families, the benefits of the living trust are well worth the costs.What kind of investment return can I expect from a living trust?The fact that portfolio assets are managed in a trust has nodirect impact upon the investment return of those assets.We work with our trust clients to develop an investment plan that balances risks and rewards so as to meet the overall objectives of the trust. Some trusts are orientedtoward capital growth, some toward asset preservation, others toward a balance of various objectives.Will a living trust reduce my income taxes?How about estate taxes?No, a living trust is not a tax-reduction strategy, for either income or estate taxes. Be suspicious of anyone who says otherwise. On the other hand, a living trust may be integratedinto an estate plan; it may become irrevocable at the owner's death, with the assets held in further trust. In that situation, no estate taxes will be saved at the owner's death,but additional taxation of the family wealth may be avoided down the road. An estate planner can tell you more.How does a living trust avoid probate? A living trust is an independent legal entity. As such, the trustees do not require court supervision to carry out their duties.Why is avoiding probate a good idea?Time and money are the two factors that concern most families. There are no court-related delays or administrative hassles with a living trust delivering financial protection to beneficiaries. Probate fees may apply to even modest estates, and they are separate from any "death taxes" (estate and/or inheritance taxes) that may be imposed. The paperwork and fee burdens vary widely around the country.Can I still qualify for Medicaid if I have a living trust?Having a living trust won't affect your Medicaid qualification one way or the other. Living trust assets are a countable resource, treated the same as if you owned it outright.If your wealth level is suitable for a living trust, the odds are you won't be a candidate for Medicaid. An irrevocable trust established more than five yearsbefore the Medicaid application is another matter. Irrevocable trusts are beyond the scope of this article— see an elder law attorney if you want to learn more about them.When should I update my living trust?As versatile as it is, a living trust isn't a "file and forget"strategy. You'll want to revisit the trust terms when:• marital status changes;• a child is born or adopted into the family;• a beneficiary dies;• you move to another state; or• your financial situation undergoes a significant change.Who should be my trustee?Trusteeship is our business, so we're naturally biased in answering this question. We should be your trustee. We have the people, the professionalism, the systems and the experience needed to make your trust-based wealth management plan successful. Call on us soon to learn more!

Piloting a Space Taxi, you must pick up passengers from "pads" and carry them to whatever other pads they wish to go. Space Taxi features 25 screens with varying obstacles and challenges that must be navigated in order to collect your fare. Although Space Taxis sort of resemble yellow Checker Cabs, they operate on a different principle - the longer you take to deliver a passenger, the less money you collect. In addition to watching the clock because of an incentive to collect money, players have to be aware of their fuel supply. Run out of fuel, and you will crash.Screenshots

This game was notable for the fact that it used multiple voices representing the different customers being picked up, saying things like "Hey, taxi!", "Pad 1 please" and "Up, please".This may not seem like much to modern gamers but this was a big deal in 1984 on a Commodore 64!

text: CENTRAL AMERICAN HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION (CODEHUCA) PANAMA DELEGATION REPORT To PEACENET readers, from CODEHUCA (Central American Human Rights Commission) A.P. 189 Paseo Estudiantes, San Jose, Costa Rica. Tel - 24 59 70; FAX - 34 29 35. INTRODUCTION The US invasion of Panama has been presented by the US government and the international media as a surgical strike that toppled the Manuel Noriega regime with minimal human and material cost. This report, prepared by a joint delegation of the Central American Human Rights Commission (CODEHUCA) and the Panamanian Human Rights Commission (CONADEHUPA), is based on testimonies and interviews collected on a recent fact-finding visit to Panama. It reveals that the reality of the Panamanian invasion, and the conditions under which the Panamanians now live, is fundamentally different from the image presented to the international community. CODEHUCA sent a 5-member delegation to Panama for two primary reasons: 1 - CODEHUCA is opposed to any and all use of military forces to solve political differences. CODEHUCA stands by the principles established by the Charters of the United Nations and the Organization of American States; and 2 - To respond to reports of massive human suffering caused by the US military invasion of Panama on December 20th and the continuing US occupation of that country up to the present time. CODEHUCA's team--working in conjunction with CONADEHUPA--visited and photographed areas hardest-hit by the US military forces and conducted interviews with diverse sectors of the Panamanian population including the newly-appointed Attorney General of Panama, the Lawyer's Association (Colegio de Abogados), opposition parties, union leaders, lawyers, doctors, and humanitarian organizations. CODEHUCA, as with any other investigative body, was unable to establish precise quantitative data regarding the human and material costs of the invasion, primarily due to the extent of US efforts to conceal these facts. But the evidence gathered by the delegation provides information that has not been published in the international press nor acknowledged by the US government. It clearly indicates that the official death toll presented by the US military forces is substantially lower than the actual number of Panamanians (particularly civilians) killed in the invasion. The function of this report is to give voice to a Panamanian perspective of the US intervention which has been suppressed and ignored through media censorship and government crackdowns on persons and groups in opposition to the US invasion/occupation. The first-hand accounts quoted in this study are excerpts from 20 hours of taped testimonies gathered by the delegation during January 20th-30th, 1990. In the interests of space, and to avoid replication, a small sampling of testimonies are referred to in the text of the report. CODEHUCA has transcribed the majority of these testimonies in Spanish and English and photocopies may be obtained through CODEHUCA. Please also feel free to make copies of and distribute this document. The major findings of this report are: 1. The US Army used highly sophisticated weapons--some for the first time in combat--against unarmed civilian populations. In many cases no distinction was made between civilian and military targets. 2. The human costs of the invasion are substantially higher than the officialUS figures. Conservative estimates indicate that civilian fatalities were at least 10 times greater than the US figure of 220. 3. The actual death toll has been obscured through US military practices including: A) - Incineration of corpses prior to identificaton; B) - Burial of remains in common graves prior to identification; and C) - US military control of administrative offices of hospitals and morgues, permitting the removal of all registries to US military bases. 4. The US has not respected fundamental legal and human rights in their military occupation of Panama. Violations of these rights have occurred on a massive scale through illegal detentions of citizens, unconstitutional property searches, illegal lay-offs of public and private employees, and--until recently--tight control of the Panamanian media. 5. A thorough, well-planned propaganda campaign has been implemented by US authorities to appease the Panamanian population and to deny the brutality and extensive human and material costs of the invasion. "THE BULLETS HAD NO NAMES AND WERE NOT SHOT DIRECTLY AT A MILITARY CUARTEL...RATHER, THEY WERE FOR THE POPULATION. THIS IS WHAT I CAN TELL YOU ABOUT THE 20TH OF DECEMBER." ---a resident of San Miguelito, (Doc. #24). INVASION AS MASSACRE: US OVERKILL AND MILITARY ATTACKS AGAINST CIVILIANS On December 20, 1990--in the first fourteen hours of the US invasion of Panama--the University of Panama Seismothese aerial raids were carried out by F-117 "Stealth" bombers (never before used in actual combat) which dropped 2000-lb. bombs. Based on various testimonies reported to this delegation, US air and ground troops killed at least 2000 to 3000 Panamanian people. This may be a conservative estimate. Most of these deaths could have been prevented had the US troops taken appropriate measures to ensure the lives of civilians and had obeyed the international legal norms of warfare. But the US military is guilty of more than negligence: there is evidence of several cases in which the US forces specifically targetedtheir attacks on civilian populations. CODEHUCA noted that the most devastated civilian neighborhoods--such as Chorrillos and San Miguelito--were extremely poor, densely-populated areas. Half of the neighborhood of Chorrillos--which had a pre-invasion population of approximately 25,000--was literally destroyed by US troops and civilian residents were victims of direct attacks: "...at 12:44 a.m., my husband and I went to the window of our 14th floor apartment and saw five US helicopters...shooting and rocketing our building....We went to the living room because there were no windows facing the side from which they were shooting at us. This did not help--the bullets came in as if we were in the open air...So we decided to go out into the passageway, because there are no windows there, the walls are very thick. All night long we listened to the sounds of the strafing and the bombardments. Mortars exploded in the 5th and 9th floors...At about 3:00 a.m., we heard a US soldier speaking over a loud-speaker telling us that we had 10 minutes to evacuate the building. Although there was an elevator, the electricity had been cut off in the first minutes of the invasion, so we did not have time to gather some belongings and walk down 14 flights of stairs. After that, the bombardments continued with even more force...Through the entire night we continued to feel the building shake due to the bombs..." (Doc. #4). "...There is another building just beside our building, that is still under construction. There is no one living there. It was totally unharmed in the attack. Even though it is right beside our building, there is not a bullet or mortar projectile mark on it. This indicates that the US troops were unquestionably firing on our building, knowing it was full of civilians." (Doc. #4). Testimonies received by CODEHUCA cited numerous examples of US attacks on unarmed vehicles and civilians, including an instance in which a US tank destroyed a public bus, killing 26 passengers. Disproportionate use of military force and indiscriminate and intentional attacks against civilians are in clear violation of the Geneva Conventions which establishes that "the rights of fighting parties to choose their methods and means of carrying out the war are not unlimited." This basic principle prohibits an excessive use of weaponry which causes superfluous harm and obligates fighting parties to make and respect the distinction between civilians and military targets under any circumstance. US violations of these fundamental laws of war were committed not only through the use of highly sophisticated weaponry but also in the "gratuitous" victimization of civilians and destruction of civilian property: "The US troops burst into the apartment using a type of pole to knock down the door...They found all of us sleeping there, in our beds and on the floor...They kept us in the street in front of the house until sunrise. Our youngest children had nothing on at all. My wife and I were in simple bed clothes. Then, in front of our eyes, they burned the building to the ground-- all fifteen apartments....All of our belonging were destroyed. They had not let anyone go back into the building to collect personal property. We have been here in the refuge ever since then" (Doc.#6). "...we saw from our window a group of approximately 18 soldiers coming downthe street, and saw them entering each house. We saw the residents coming out, followed by the soldiers, and then we saw the houses, one by one, go up in smoke. The US soldiers were burning the houses. We saw people trapped in their apartments, because they lived on the second floors of these wooden houses. The stairs to the ground floor were already on fire so many of them had to jump from the windows. I saw one boy return to look for an elderly person, perhaps a grandparent. He threw a mattress from the second floor and then jumped with this old person" (Doc. #7). MATERIAL LOSSES Official US and Panamanian government sources estimate the material damage caused by the invasion at close to two billion dollars. While much of the damage was the effect of the first-time use of high-technology weaponry with tremendous destructive capacity, the US troops' burning of civilian homes and entire city blocks (see footnote) clearly contributed to the staggering material losses suffered by Panamanian citizens--especially by the poor. Quantitative dollar figures cannot adequately describe the overwhelming personal impact of the destruction. Many of those living in the "slum" areas near the military cuartels literally have nothing left, and the refuge centers for displaced people have been severely inadequate in meeting the existing needs. As one woman from Chorrillos told the CODEHUCA delegation: "Eight years of marriage and everything lost" (Doc.4). INHUMANE TREATMENT OF WOUNDED According to several testimonies, there is evidence that the treatment of wounded people was inadequate and inhumane. The Red Cross reported that their efforts to evacuate wounded survivors to hospitals were, in some cases, seriously impeded by US troops: "They (paramedics) returned to the hospital and said that they were going to wait until the morning because US troops had shot at the ambulance. It was clearly marked with a red cross on every side. It could not be mistaken. They said they were lucky to escape with their own lives" (Doc.#12). In the neighborhood of Chorrillos, the delegation witnessed a completely leveled residential area the size of ten city blocks. Not a single structure was left standing. CODEHUCA has received testimony from several doctors regarding illegal and inhumane treatment of wounded Panamanians. According to a doctor in the San Tomas Hospital who was staffing the Emergency Room on December 20th: "The dead generally showed bullet wounds in the head; some of them had contusions in the head. The people who took refuge in the hospital said that when someone was wounded, the soldiers finished them off with their rifle butts" (Doc. #1). Other doctors reported that: "On December 22, we received an ultimatum from the US Army through the Red Cross. If we did not let them enter the Hospital, it would be bombed. They wereallowed to enter; they searched the hospital for arms. They found none in the hospital...In the morgue, there were 60 bodies that had been stabbed with bayonets of the soldiers to make sure that they were dead" (Doc. #1). "On the 23rd, I was moved to a concentration camp in Emperador to attend to the wounded detained people. There were 30 people with gunshot wounds and burnsthat required hospitalization....in conversation with the US Army paramedics, I was told that there was a common grave where they had buried a trailer-full of bodies. Witnesses have verified that there are three such refrigerated trailers in the city. The paramedics indicated that each of the trailers could hold 400 bodies. Similarly, they mentioned the Chorrillo cremations, indicating that the act was justified based on the advanced state of decomposition of the bodies" (Doc. #1). In the area of Chorrillos, where casualties were the highest, the Red Cross was denied access for the first three days. In the same neighborhood, residentswitnessed survivors being "disposed of" along with corpses: "On the way from our bombed-out apartment to the refuge center...we saw a pile of bodies, both dead and wounded, piled all together on top of each other. We thought that they were all dead until we saw some of them moving. We saw some of them with their heads smashed open. We saw others that were totally crushed and I think that tanks had passed right over these people because they were so crushed." (Doc. #7)." The prevention of evacuation and treatment of wounded--civilian or military--during wartime is in direct violation of the Geneva Conventions of August, 1949, whichestablishes free access of the International Red Cross and other recognized humanitarian relief organizations to wounded individuals. COMMON GRAVES AND ILLEGAL DISPOSAL OF CADAVERS After the initial attacks, US troops were seen burning cadavers and buryingremains in numerous common graves without prior attempts at identification or notification of next of kin. As a result of these practices, many Panamanian citizens are considered missing or "disappeared"; their family members have no information regarding their location or whether they are even alive. The Red Cross has confirmed that the US Army carried out "sanitation" activities in which they used flame throwers to burn hundreds of bodies: "On December 22, I went to the Central Headquarters with a group of people who had seen the American soldiers take some bodies from among the debris. Nearthe Capilla, one of the soldiers burned a body. For this, they used flamethrowers that consisted of an apparatus they carried on their backs that looks like whatthe tanks use and a hose that looked like part of a ventilator. The bodies were put on top of a piece of zinc. When the fire went out, the body was like a piece of coal; it was a compact mass that was later put in a green bag which had three adjustable straps. After the body was burned, it was put together with fourteenothers that had already been cremated. "One thing that caught my attention was the reaction of a woman who shouted that they could not do this because the families could not identify the bodies.They did not stop because no one was around to recognize the victims. They didn't photograph them for later identification" (Doc. #1). CODEHUCA received many testimonies from residents of conflict areas which provide similar descriptions of common graves filled with corpses: "I had to go on two occasions to these hospital morgues to recognize a dead family member. There were dead persons piled one on top of the other....All the spaces were full, and bodies were lying on the floor, inside and outside the door. Every day, truckloads were taking bodies to the common graves. In the morning and in the afternoon, I saw US troops driving US trucks taking 50 bodies--each trip--to be buried....Some of the bodies were taken in rustic boxes, and others in plastic bags....For example, they took them to the Juan Diaz Cemetary. It was US troops that had the job of digging the common graves and the particular graves....From the hospital, we went behind the trucks. They entered the cemetary. They did not allow us to enter. From the entrance, we were able to see..." (Doc. 24). "I saw where US troops with green bags were entering houses looking for the remains of bodies. They were doing this with their mouths covered with a type of doctor's mask...They would then put them in the bags and bury them in holes (mass graves) that they had dug." (Doc. 4). Another witness reported finding two Panamanian soldiers covered with lime in a hole in the ground: "They still had their identification ("dog-tags"). Their families could not have known that they were there" (Doc.#11). As one doctor indicated: "It should be that the only persons put in common graves are unidentified bodies...I think they are doing this, in part, so that the real number of dead will not be known" (Doc.#12). US ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL "The US has set up shadow administrations that control more or less what the Panamanian hospital administration does" (Doc.#10). The US Southern Command executes ultimate military, civil, and legal authority in Panama without respect for the Panamanian constitution or administrative systems. When asked when the local government would take control of US actions in Panama, the newly-appointed Attorney General of Panama, Rogelio Cruz, responded: "Three weeks ago, I was in a meeting when an official from Chepa called, saying that Chepa had been invaded by North American troops. They had entered the Municipal Building and decided to sleep there....So then I told him, the official in Chepa, that if he had as powerful army as the USA, then he should oust the US troops at once. What could I do? We are an invaded country. It is a reality" (Doc. 15). Addressing the issue of consistent constitutional violations on the part of the US occupying forces, Cruz explained the US-controlled chain of command: "Recently, with respect to the denunciations, someone was in my office to tell me there was a house with a large amount of weapons and money. So I said I am going to order a search. When I called F.Q., of the new Public Forces, to do the raid, he told me that it was necessary to have the approval of Major Manning of the US military...I did not know that the Attorney General of Panamaneeded the approval of a US major to do a raid" (Doc. 15). "COVER-UP" OF ACTUAL DEATH TOLL Shortly after the invasion, US military personnel took control of the hospital administrations' accounting records of fatalities and wounded and have prevented public access to these figures. Mounting evidence regarding the existence of a "cover-up" regarding the actual death toll is recognized not only by knowledgeable sectors of the Panamanian population but by former US officials as well. Former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark reported a "conspiracy of silence" regarding the fatalities resulting from the invasion and former US Ambassador to Panama Ambler Moss stated that his "gut instinct is that there is an awful lot of parties around there that have an interest in covering up numbers" (New York Times, 1/10/90, p. 9). Catholic priest Diego Caffley working in Panama reported to the ANSA press agency that the US invasion of Panama caused 3000 deaths and that the greatest obstacle to finding out how many persons died is the Southern Command of the US Army (La Republica, Costa Rica, 11/01/90, p. 28a). The PIQof which was published in the Panamanian daily La Estrella (29/01/90, p. 16a) which poses the question: "Why are there so many obstacles to finding out how many people died?" The official US government figures regarding the number of deaths has fluctuated from 200 to 400 to "undetermined." But as one Panamanian stated: "The figure 200 is ridiculous when one looks at the capacity of the hospital morgues. Here they fall into their own lies. On the 23rd and 24th, they were urging people by television to come to the hospitals and identify family members because the morgues....were all full to overflowing" (Doc. 24). One of the several Panama City area hospitals, alone, has a 200-body capacity, and various humanitarian organizations have made estimates regarding the actualPanamanian death toll ranging from 600 to 5,000. The Catholic and Episcopal Churches have estimated 3,000 Panamanian fatalities, a figure that they believeis conservative. REPRESSION OF OPPOSITION; ABUSE OF LEGAL RIGHTS I. - ILLEGAL DETENTIONS CODEHUCA is extremely concerned regarding the continuing practice of illegal detentions of Panamanian citizens on the part of the US occupying forces. According to the US military's own sources, almost 6,000 Panamanians--military and civilian--have been detained and interrogated in US military bases. At least hundreds of civilians have been arbitarily and unconstitutionally captured on the basis of anonymous denunciations; many of these arrests are spurred merely by antipathy or personal grudges within the Panamanian population but others are clearly attempts to crack down on opposition protest: "...union leaders have been detained in order to pressure their support for the puppet government....The political leaders continue to receive threats thatthey will be detained" (Doc.1). Substantial numbers of non-combatants are being held as prisoners-of-war without charges brought against them. Furthermore, in the last weeks of January--one month after the invasion--families were still not allowed to visit their detained relatives. While visitation is now being permitted, family members must battle almost-insurmountable bureaucracy to make contact with the detainees. II. - ILLEGAL SEARCHES AND SEIZURES US soldiers continue to commit illegal searches and confiscation/destruction of private property--in many cases work-related items such as files, archives, and computers--on a massive scale. While widespread, these unconstitutional activities reveal a pattern: Unions, churches, government offices, opposition political parties, human rights groups, and embassies of countries (such as Nicaragua, Cuba, Libya, and Peru) with strained relations with the US have beenspecifically targeted. The homes of private citizens considered in opposition to the invasion or nationalistic have also been illegally searched. As in the case of the illegal detentions, anonymous denunciations--often hinting at the presence of guns or drugs on the property--are often the primary basis [for] seizure. "All of the residences and offices of the political sectors that oppose the invasion have been searched and much of them have been destroyed and their valuables stolen" (Doc. 1). As one housewife reported: "The troops arrived. They said that they had received an anonymous call, informing them that there were guns or drugs in my house. Thirty of them, well-armed, surrounded my house, and six came in...and looked everywhere. I was there with young children. Of course they found nothing...."(Doc 24). III. - UNAUTHORIZED/ILLEGAL DISMISSALS To date, more than 10,OOO Panamanians have been dismissed from both the private and public work force. The initial pretext for the firings had been individuals' links to the Noriega government or to the Dignity Batallions. The dismissals based on membership in the Dignity Batallions is illegal in that the PanamanianConstitution establishes the rights of citizens to defend their country from foreign invasion. Besides using unconstitutional justifications for the lay- offs of workers, the current authorities in Panama have extended their actions beyond their (albeit illegal) estabished criteria of firing members of the Dignity Batallions. As one public employee explained: "There are institutions that had, for example, 50 Dignity Batallion members, but they dismissed as many as 150." The post-invasion authorities have also ignored existing labor laws in their practice of "suspending indefinitely without pay" thousands of workers who now have no legal or administrative recourse: "Besides all of the other rights that are included in these laws regarding employment, there is no precedent for a policy of "indefinite leave of absence without salary." Furthermore, these dismissal letters were retroactive--that is, these letters were delivered on the 15th of January and ordered dismissals from the first of January. In other words, people had worked 15 days without pay. That is illegal, besides the fact that the person signing the letters has no public authority but is a simple custodian who signed the letter. The process was undertaken irresponsibly....because when we search for remedies for what has occurred, there are no authorities that will aid us. The man who did the firings disappeared and has not returned..." (Doc. 25). IV. - PROPAGANDA/MEDIA CONTROL The information and images released to the international community regarding the Panamanian invasion and continuing occupation are in accordance with a comprehensive, well-planned public relations and propaganda campaign executed by the US authorities. CODEHUCA does not deny that many Panamanians welcomed the removal of Noriega.But the economic, political, and social context in which the Panamanian people were living must also be considered, along with the fact that it is clear that the "overjoyed" and "grateful" Panamanian people portrayed in media reports were unaware of the actual number of people killed by the US military. Until the middle of February, the US exercised full control and censorship over Panamanian media, providing no alternative information other than official government figures. Nor was there any medium for the expression of dissenting or critical perspectives regarding the invasion. As part of an appeasement campaign, the US military has distributed merchandise carrying the "Just Cause" slogan and US soldiers give candy, chocolate, and 25-cent pieces to Panamanian children. It is worth noting that "Just Cause" t-shirts and other paraphernalia were distributed within the first 24 hours of the invasion, indicating that the propaganda campaign to win the "hearts and minds" of the Panamanians was planned well in advance.Furthermore, US troops permitted mass looting after dismantling the Panamanian security forces previously responsible for maintaining order in Panama; there is support for the view thatthe US authorities made a policy decision before the invasion to encourage looting as a means of releasing Panamanian tension and aggression and winning over the population with the availability of previously- inaccessible material goods. ANALYSIS/CONCLUSIONS "THE MORAL DAMAGE AND SOCIAL TRAUMA OF THE FAMILIES OF DEAD, DISAPPEARED AND IMPRISONED PANAMANIANS--ALONG WITH THE LOSS OF OUR SOVEREIGNTY--WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN" (Doc. #1). US "mop-up" efforts have been quick and effective in trying to erase the visual evidence of the killing and destruction. But while public relations work, cover-up of the actual death toll, and suppression of protest can present a tidy image, the reality is that thousands of Panamananians have lost family members, homes, and livelihoods. The Organization of American States and Amnesty International have documentedthe human rights abuses that the Noriega regime committed in the past two to three years and Noriega has been legitimately denounced for his role in the repression of opposition parties in the May 1989 elections. However, the US massacre committed in the invasion of Panama has caused an unprecedented level of deaths, suffering, and human rights abuses in Panama. To further illustrate the position that the invasion had little or nothing to do with the removal of Noriega and the restoration of `democracy' CODEHUCA notes that the human rights violations in Panama under Noriega--although unacceptablyhigh--were mild compared with the records of US-supported regimes in Guatemala and El Salvador. It is critical to emphasize that even Panamanians who despised Noriega and desired his removal from power condemn the US intervention that violated their national sovereignty and killed their fellow Panamanians. Yes, they wanted a change. But at what cost? As one Panamanian put it: "How incredibly shameless to argue that they invaded us for our freedom and democracy! Why don't they go to free the blacks of South Africa...or the dispossessed of their own country? The most powerful military, the nation that is the most `democratic and free' of the West, needed to indisciminately kill more than 3,000 Panamanians, destroy whatever was in their path, to capture one man-- Noriega, who was always in arm's reach?" (Doc #14). RECOMMENDATIONS It is critical that the questions raised by this and other such reports be investigated thoroughly by the US Congress/Senate and international organizations such as the United Nations. The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights has accepted a request to make a fact-finding visit to Panama; CODEHUCA encourages that this investigation be conducted as soon as possible to avoid further cover-up and loss of evidence due to US "mop-up" efforts. The current US policy analysis and public sentiment regard the invasion as "successful" in that it "got Noriega." This conclusion is based on misrepresentation of the actual death toll and other human and material costs. Honest estimates must be recognized, publicized, and utilized in policy analysis to avoid the faulty legitimization of this type of intervention as a continued policy for the US or other nations. Honest estimates must also be used to provide appropriate indemnification-- for both ethical and political reasons--to those Panamananians who have suffered losses. When asked about the issue of the much-awaited US financial renumeration, one Panamanian woman whose daughter was killed by US troops responded: "They cannot bring my daughter back to life with their money." It is true that the losses inflicted by the US upon the Panamanian people can never be repaired, yet the least the US government can do is to provide the money to help Panamanian people rebuild the lives, homes, and businesses which have been destroyed by US intervention. Furthermore, if international support is not forth-coming (including indemnification from the US) there will undoubtedly be significant social and political backlash on the part of the Panamanian people waiting desperately for these funds. It is absolutely unrealistic and unacceptable--by legal, moral, and politicalstandards--to believe that the US government can create a true "democracy" in Panama through the installation of a government brought about by a brutal invasion of a sovereign nation. The cover-up activities, the abuse of fundamental liberties, and the suppression of opposition groups on the part of the US military are aggravating an already-volatile situation. CODEHUCA believes that the future direction of Panama depends on immediate action by the Panamanian government to encourage an open, national dialogue for Panamanians to address fundamental economic, political, and military issues. If the interests of the poor and the working-class (the hardest hit sectors) are excluded from the nation-building process, it will be impossible for Panamato develop internal stability and peace. The US has illegitimately "justified" the massacre as an intervention to "build democracy." The international community must condemn this in every respect. Moreover, the international community must pressure the US--and other nations and international financial institutions-- tohelp rebuild Panama. Only through international cooperation will democracy really be built in Panama. CODEHUCA again urges the international community to pressure the United States and Panamanian governments to deliver an honest report regarding the invasion of Panama and to act responsibly in this critical time of national reconstruction.

When Parodies Collide: Game Disses Lil B in Interview And on Tyler, The Creator/ Lil Wayne Collab "Martians vs. Goblins"
MP3:The Game feat Tyler, the Creator + Lil Wayne -Martians vs. Goblins
Has Game out trolled Lil B the Based God ? I love the Game's music. However, between his meta-reference rhyme content, Mike Tyson-esque face tattoo and constant love poems to Dr. Dre he is one of the most absurd, grotesque individuals in Hip Hop.
Game's newest adventure has him dissing Lil B the Based God in an interview with VLAD TV and on this collab with Tyler, the Creator and Lil Wayne, "Martians vs. Goblins".
Game also lies about having sex with Lebron James mom and Erykah Badu on "Martian vs. Goblins".
This is probably one of the funniest rap songs made this week. Odd Future's Tyler, the Creator clowns Game's name-dropping after slandering Bruno Mars.
Game then references Nas's "Eminem murdered you on your own shit" line from the Jay-z diss "Ether" but points it at himself.
So much fun for rap nerds on this song is which is on Game's new album The R.E.D. Album which comes out next Tuesday.

How do corporate reputation and customer satisfaction impact customer defection? A study of private energy customers in Germany
Walsh, G. and Dinnie, K.J. and Weidmann, K.P. (2006) How do corporate reputation and customer satisfaction impact customer defection? A study of private energy customers in Germany. Journal of Services Marketing, 20 (6). pp. 412-420. ISSN 0887-6045
Full text not available in this repository. (Request a copy from the Strathclyde author)Abstract
To analyze whether perceived corporate reputation and customer satisfaction are directly associated with customer intention. Design/methodology/approach - Using structural equation modeling, the study is based on the responses to a written questionnaire of 462 customers of a large German utility. Findings - A non-significant and weak relationship was found between corporate reputation and switching intention. The postulated impact of customer satisfaction on customer switching intention was confirmed. Corporate reputation and customer satisfaction were found to be strongly correlated. Research limitations/implications - The sample includes only one company's customers, so the findings may not be generalized to other industries. Future research in other service industries is called for. Practical implications - The threat of customer defection in deregulated markets requires power supply companies to examine the marketing instruments and measures required to inhibit customer willingness to switch power suppliers. This study demonstrates the need to focus on monitoring and increasing customer satisfaction. Originality/value - The importance of reputation and satisfaction will ultimately be assessed on the basis of their customer-related consequences and their economic relevance to companies. The construct of corporate reputation has attracted significant attention among marketing scholars, although almost no work can be found that focuses on the most important stakeholder group, namely customers. This paper addresses this research gap. The identification of context-specific reputation and satisfaction effects on customer defection offers both practical implications for marketers and contributes to the theoretical knowledge base of an increasingly important domain in services marketing.

text: Major Averages Holding On To Moderate Gains 5/16/2012 11:01 AM ET Stocks have moved mostly higher in morning trading on Wednesday, regaining some ground after trending lower in recent sessions. The major averages have climbed firmly into positive territory but remain well off their recent highs.Bargain hunting has contributed to the strength on Wall Street, with some traders picking up stocks at reduced levels following the recent weakness in the markets. The losses seen on Tuesday pulled the major averages down to new three-month closing lows.The markets have also benefited from some upbeat U.S. economic data, including a report from the Federal Reserve showing a much bigger than expected increase in industrial production in April.Nonetheless, buying interest is somewhat subdued amid lingering concerns about the political situation in Greece, which is headed for a new round of elections after lawmakers failed to form a coalition government.Gold stocks have shown a strong move to the upside on the day, with the NYSE Arca Gold Bugs Index up by 1.8 percent after ending the previous session a two-year closing low. The rebound by gold stocks comes despite a continued decrease by the price of the precious metal.Significant weakness is also visible among airline stocks, as reflected by the 1.5 percent gain being posted by the NYSE Arca Airline Index. Computer hardware, railroad, and networking stocks are also posting notable gains.The major averages have pulled back off their highs for the session in recent trading but are holding on to moderate gains. The Dow is up 45.49 points or 0.4 percent at 12,677.49, the Nasdaq is up 14.34 points or 0.5 percent at 2,908.10 and the S&P 500 is up 6.20 points or 0.5 percent at 1,336.86. by RTT Staff WriterFor comments and feedback: firstname.lastname@example.com Analysis Top Ten Female CEOs Crack The Glass Ceiling Housing Data, Fed Speeches in the Spotlight -Economic Preview for Week of March 20 Europe's Ten Tallest Buildings

After the proper questions are asked regarding psychological contributions to ED, the focus becomes more on the patient's pre-existing health problems.
The second category of erectile dysfunction relates to problems with blood vessels. In general terms, there are two types of blood vessels, arteries and veins. Arteries carry blood away from the heart. The blood then circulates through the body and tissues and returns to the heart in blood vessels known as veins. Erection problems can stem from diseases of either type of blood vessel. These problems are probably the most common reason for erectile dysfunction.
In order to achieve an erection blood must flow into the penis through arteries. The blockage that develops in arteries, atherosclerosis, limits the proper flow of blood to the penile tissues. Imagine if you were trying to fill a large tub with water from a garden hose, but the garden hose had a very slow flow because someone pushed a stone into hose that became stuck. It would take a longer time to fill the tub, of course. Similarly, when an artery is filled with a calcium deposits (atherosclerosis) the blood flow is slower and the erection cannot be maintained. This is the same problem that occurs in the heart in people that have heart attacks. It is common for heart disease to first be picked up by men complaining of erectile dysfunction. The arteries of the penis are no different from those of the heart. If "hardening" is occurring in the penile arteries, it is likely happening elsewhere (the heart). Men are usually very aware of their ability to achieve an erection; therefore, they report problems to their family doctor. It is the physician's job to make sure that the disease (arterial disease) affecting the penis is not affecting the other major arteries in the patient's body. This can be done by checking the person's cholesterol level and performing an EKG (electrical tracing of the heart).
Problems can also occur with the veins, something known as venous leak. Remember that once blood enters the penis for an erection, the veins (the blood vessels that take the blood back to the heart from the penis) are compressed slowing the flow of blood out of the penis. This maintains the erection. Venous leak occurs when blood is leaked out of the penis from the veins and the penis does not stay hard or the erection is lost. Imagine trying to blow up a balloon with a pinpoint hole in it. You would blow and blow, but the leak of air out of the balloon from the hole would prevent it from ever being fully blown up.

Yep PB barks at the dog park & I know what you mean where you feel like the parents with the bad kid at camp. I'm sure no one would believe she just whines at home after hearing her lengthy "conversations" at the park.

Well, Maddie has a brother named 'Barkley' so you can imagine what he's good at. I've seen a lot of Bassets bark constantly when they're playing at the dog park, or are trying to get another dog to run so they can chase. Nothing cracks me up more than to see a 'herd' of Bassets barking and some baying, as they chase a confused dog all over the park, lol.
It doesn't bother me when there's a dog there that barks like that because they want to play.
So, is it voice? Or just the face that captures me, and haunts me so. Or, am I meant to never know? -San. |

Norman loves to play. games of chase equal barking. try to get a toy or some one to chase equals barking. westling means growling. this last behavior is the one that upsets other owners the most. I explain about bassets and barking and Norman's play fighting and growling. If they don't understand or except it they usually leave.

I can't wait to take Emma to the park and see how she behaves. She is generally a very friendly puppy and whines ALOT. How old does she have to be before I can take her to dog parks? She is almost 10 weeks and had 2 sets of shots already.

Well at least I know i'm not alone in this! I'll try to do a better job at calming down the other owners =D. What about when you see that the other dog clearly doesn't want to play and is actually scared so he runs away. If Bernie sees a dog running he automatically think its "come play", and not "leave me alone!" Should I step in then?

Hi! We're new here too and first of all I wanna thank everybody for all the good threads here! You have helped me a lot with my pup!
And we have the same problem with Harvey! It's almost when ever he sees other dogs and gets really excited and wants to play.. He just starts jumping and barking (or after we started teaching him to sit and calm down he sometimes just sits, hops a little and barks). To me it seems as well like part of the play but in the city you get a lot of people shooting you dirty looks and some dog owners seem to be afraid of a barking dog.. I've just tried to be patient with him and tell him to stop every time he starts barking like that and I can say I've seen some progress happening slowly but surely. So maybe it's just a question of teaching him how to handle those situations without barking..? But I also think that dog parks are for dogs to play so noise sensitive owners should just accept it! |

The Olympics were a unique opportunity to try some new foreign relations tactics with our closest neighbors for President Obama, Molson Beer Hockey Betting being one of them. Now, with the games over and done, at least we know The President isn't a sore loser. See below for the full story as well as pictures!
US Ambassador to Canada, David Johnson, delivered a 24 pack of the Canadian beer to Prime Minister Harper from The U.S. President Friday morning. Also included was a case of Yuengling, the beer The President would have chosen had he won.
The wager was made on the men's hockey final between the U.S. and Canada, a thrilling final that went to overtime before the win. For Obama, Molson Beer hockey betting was the perfect way to add a down to earth feel to an already exciting event. Delivering the beer, Johnson congratulated the Canadian people on their hosting of the Olympic Games
"They were great, the athletes were great and the spirit and hospitality were great to my people and around the world,"
PM Harper replied:
"David, you guys always fulfill your promises to us, and we appreciate it,"
Strangely, the Prime Minister also said that he would donate the cases of beer to the Hockey Hall of Fame. What a waste!
It turns out that the heads of state weren't the only ones calming their nerves before the big game though, Team Canada's Brendan Fisher and Ronan Mackey also couldn't stand the pressure. But instead of making wagers, they played a pickup game of hockey outside the arena. Before long, two officers approached and said:
"We're going to have to shut this down…unless we can play."
You have to love the Canadian spirit when it comes to sports! Well the wager has been settled and the Hockey Hall of Fame is 48 beers richer. Nothing like some good old fashioned gambling to unite our national leaders. What do you think of the Obama Molson Beer Hockey Bet? Let me know in the comments section!

Congress supremo Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra on Monday deleted his Facebook account after his status message on the social networking site triggered controversy and India Against Corruption (IAC) member Kumar Vishwas demanded his apology on the matter.
Vishwas asked Vadra to apologize for reportedly updating his status message in Facebook as "Mango people in banana republic."
Vishwas, a close associate of social activist Arvind Kejriwal, said Vadra, against whom they have brought charges of making huge wealth by using a realty firm favoured by the Congress governments, should apologise for insulting Indians by calling it a banana republic.

Peters inspiration is two-fold. First up, he REALLY likes to drink fresh coffee and cant stand to drink stale coffee. Secondly he is looking to get away from the 9-5, or should that be the daily grind...
The Pressjar uses a piston and air valve to compress a ground material like coffee, driving air out of the jar and retaining as much freshness as possible!
Current alternative storage methods are non-purpose built containers, use of the retail bags or jars. However, for example when coffee is in a half full jar or a non-purpose built container the remainder of the storage device is filled with air and this air causes the coffee to go stale within a few days the air tight jar is not so air tight, because it stores the coffee with air.
The Pressjar containers, on the other hand, minimize the air to which the coffee is exposed to and therefore keeps the coffee fresher for longer.

Party Sugar Cookies
I love love LOVE sugar cookies!
I love sugar cookies even more when they've been wrapped up in cellophane! I think that sugar cookies are fantastic, they look pretty, they taste yummy and you can make them well in advance for any and every occasion! These cookies were used as the prize for the birthday carnival beanbag toss!
My favorite sugar cookie recipe has recently gone missing. I used to be able to remember the recipe and only had to glance at it occasionally but then I had a second child and my entire brain turned to mush! I've tried a lot of different recipes and the one used on Annie's eats seems to be my favorite so far.
Sugar Cookies
- 1 cup softened butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 1/2 tsp almond extract
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 1/2 cups sifted flour
Cream the butter and sugar together, add the egg and the extracts and continue to beat. Add the flour and salt and mix until everything is incorporated.
Roll the dough into a ball and flatten into a disk.
Chill until firm.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll dough 1/4″ thick and cut into shapes*. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 8-10 minutes. The edges should not be browned.
*I like to use a toothpick and poke tiny holes over the surface of the cookies before baking so they don't puff up too much, it makes for a smoother surface to decorate.
I should also mention my fantastic new rainbow nesting bowls! I won them! (well, I won a gift card and I bought them!) Thanks to Vince at Cooking Ventures for letting me play along (and win a gift card) in his recipe naming contest! If you're looking for crazy yummy looking dinner recipes, you should check out his blog!
*Royal Icing recipe and tutorial coming very soon!
October 7, 2009 10:12 pm
OMgosh do these look absolutely yummy! Too fabulous!
September 19, 2011 3:19 pm
Your blog is so easy to read, I love it!
I just made sugar cookies today and iced them with royal icing and it was a total disaster. The egg white just would not whip! Yours look so cute and professional!
Love, sugar and slice

Indonesians Hold 'Islam's Answer to Miss World'
The Miss World beauty contest, which has attracted fierce opposition by hardline Islamic groups in host country Indonesia, is now facing another challenge -- a rival pageant exclusively for Muslims.
The Muslimah World contest to be held on Wednesday in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, is "Islam's answer to Miss World", the pageant's founder Eka Shanti said Saturday.
"Muslimah World is a beauty pageant, but the requirements are very different from Miss World -- you have to be pious, be a positive role model and show how you balance a life of spirituality in today's modernized world," Shanti told AFP.
The pageant is the latest backlash against Miss World, which has already dropped the bikini from its beach fashion round and has attracted more than a month of protests by Muslim hardliners demanding the show be scrapped.
Radicals have set effigies of the organizers alight and deemed the contest "smut" and "pornographic".
The 20 Muslimah World finalists were chosen from more than 500, who took part in online rounds, reciting Koranic verses and telling stories of how they came to wear the Islamic headscarf, a requirement for the pageant.
The finalists, from Iran, Malaysia, Brunei, Bangladesh, Nigeria and Indonesia, will parade Islamic fashions in what Shanti says is an opportunity to show young Muslim women they do not need to show their "immodest" parts -- including their hair and bare shoulders -- to be beautiful.
But Shanti said she did not support hardliners' calls to cancel the Miss World contest, acknowledging that Indonesia was a diverse country with many faiths.
"We don't just want to shout 'no' to Miss World. We'd rather show our children they have choices. Do you want to be like the women in Miss World? Or like those in Muslimah World?" Shanti said.
The Muslimah World finalists will be welcomed with open arms, with hundreds of women wearing headscarves planning to take part in what they call an "elegance rally" Sunday to greet the contestants and offer a moderate voice to the debate, Shanti said.
In contrast, Miss World contestants were again ridiculed Saturday, with around 300 members of the radical Islamic Defenders Front gathering in the capital, holding signs that read "Miss World is a whore contest".
Government officials gave in to hardliners last week and announced the Miss World final would be moved from the outskirts of Jakarta to the resort island of Bali, where the contest began last week with no opposition from the Hindu majority there.
Despite the decision to keep all Miss World activities off the Muslim-majority island of Java, protestors from the Islamic group Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia also demonstrated Saturday in the central Java city of Yogyakarta, where contestants had planned to visit but were forced to cancel their trip.
"Miss World is not welcome in Indonesia at all," a spokeswoman for the organization in Yogyakarta said.
MNC Group, the organizers and broadcaster of Miss World, said this week that they were not party to the government's decision and have said it would be "impossible" to make the last-minute move.
The decision to confine Miss World activities to Bali was the latest victory for Islamic fringe groups, who are wielding increasing power and have succeeded in getting several events they deem un-Islamic changed or canceled in recent years.
Last year, pop sensation Lady Gaga axed a concert after hardliners threatened to burn down the venue and criticized her for wearing only "a bra and panties".

I was staying at the nearby Palms Hotel and the clerk said this was a favorite of hers and her husband. I had the sampler plate which had a little bit of three kinds of meat. The dinner comes with soup or salad, sides, and dessert. Great desserts!

Great breakfast place. Quiet and casual. Quick service. They serve loco moco, eggs, bacon, toast, hashbrowns, omlets, sweet bread french toast, pancakes too and more. We will go back.

Setting mail quotas
This is the first in a series of admin tips by Domino book author Karen Fishwick, including her latest Exam Cram 2: Lotus Notes and Domino 6 System Administrator.

E-mail has become a mission-critical business tool that most companies use as one of their primary means of communications. Users can receive and save a high volume of e-mail, including their own sent messages, in their mail files. Large mail files can overwhelm a server's disk capacity and reduce the performance of the mail client. Because you generally cannot provide users with unlimited storage space, Domino administrators can set a size limit, or database quota, for each mail file; these limits are called mail quotas. When delivering mail to a user's mail file, the router checks the current size of the mail file against the specified mail quota.
You can set two types of size limits on a user's mail file: a warning threshold and an absolute quota size. Set a warning threshold to provide users with advance notice when their mail files approach the designated mail file quota, so they can reduce the size of their mail files before message flow is interrupted. Set a quota if you intend to establish a policy of interrupting users' mail usage if their mail files exceed a specified size. (Note that you must set a quota before you can set a warning threshold.)
You can configure the router to respond in several ways when a mail file exceeds its quota, each representing a higher level of enforcement. The least restrictive response is to have the router issue automatic notifications to users when their mail files exceed the quota. If users fail to respond to notifications, you can hold pending messages in MAIL.BOX or return messages to the senders as undeliverable until the users reduce the size of their mail files.
Along with the methods the router uses to enforce quotas, the Notes client displays a warning to any user who has exceeded the designated warning threshold or quota whenever the user attempts to send mail.
You can set quota limits and warning thresholds in one of two ways:
- During registration
Quotas specified during registration apply only to new users, not to existing users. You can also set mail quotas before registration by listing the quota information in the Registration Policy document and applying this document during registration. - Per database
Using the Domino Administrator, you can manually specify the warning threshold and quota of one or more mail files. This method works for any database, including the mail database. Quotas and warning thresholds are set using the Quotas tool in the File Tab of the Administrator client.
Karen Fishwick is an independent consultant, book author and technical editor in Ottawa. She focuses on administrative troubleshooting for servers and resolving access-control problems within applications and holds the CLP designation for R6 in both the system administration and application development tracks.
If you use the lowest enforcement for quotas then you may hit problems if the mail files are on a release 5 Domino cluster -- mailfiles over the quota size don't cluster properly. This is claimed to be fixed in current R6 servers and is claimed to be cured in 5.0.13 (available later this year according to Lotus).

Ive been loathing for this app ever since.
Im a heavy user of keepass.
Yet i cant afford a keepass for iPhone.
Too ironic, i can afford a 3g years ago.
But now i cant even a paid app 99c.
Someday ill just offer a donation.
Once again thank you.

would like to know if keepass works well with IPHONE 4 (I had it on a Dell PDA - marvellous) but now with the iphone , I don't find a 4 version
Thks a lot - AnonymousDecember 12, 2010 at 8:16 PM
It works, but the updates are slow in coming. It really needs to be updated to support the multitasking so that the master password can be cached for a time period to allow returning to it to get passwords and locking after a timeout... MAJORLY needed feature.

It still works if you export to KDB (1.x) format from Keepass 2.15, but native KDBX support would be preferable.

I use KeePass on my laptop and were looking for an app that could allow me to download the database to my iPhone and get both of them synchronized.
MyKeePass seems to be the app I need, but there is one thing that freightens me: the upload of the database from the PC has to be done through the internet. And sending a file that keeps all my passwords to the internet is the last thing I am willing to do.
Is there (or will be) any way to upload the desktop database through the USB connection?
Thanks! Hi,
since ios6 update (or maybe earlier) kdbx files on dropbox cannot be opened anymore. I always get the error "File is not supported (error code: UnsupportedVersion).
The same error occurs, if you open a kdbx file that was saved by Keepass 2.20, even though the file was uploaded from the Desktop to MyKeepas on the iphone.
I have removed one star from the app rating, please fix the above issues and I can give you again 4 stars. Once it is able to save the file to dropbox, I will give you 5 stars, because then I can bidirectionally sync between my destkop and iphone thru dropboxClick here
