Richard V. Barbuto - America on the Ropes
The War of 1812 began with much confidence among U.S. leaders.
Thomas Jefferson predicted that the conquest of Canada was "a mere matter of marching." But, as historian Richard V. Barbuto points out, "Mr. Madison's War" found the U.S. government in debt, the Royal Navy raiding our coasts and British troops burning the White House. The conflict was hugely unpopular with American citizens.
How did we get into this war ... and how did we win it?
Barbuto is deputy director of the Department of Military History at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College at Ft. Leavenworth.

OS2008 Feature Upgrade: reflash your tablet (for the last time?)
Nokia has published the OS2008 Feature Upgrade for the N810 and N800 Internet Tablets. This release is based on Maemo 4.1 (codename Diablo) and provides the Seamless Software Update feature.
Users still need to reflash the device in order to install this release. Further OS updates will be made available over-the-air, without needing to reflash. Now users will get automatic notifications in the home screen about the availability of OS updates or single applications, including those installed from third parties. This works only over WLAN connections. It is still possible to check for updates manually from the Application manager.
This release brings a new open source email application based on Modest and the tinymail framework. Users will find a simplified account setup and presets for various service providers. Another major improvement is the introduction to Chinese character rendering support in Email, Browser and RSS feed reader. There are numerous issues fixed all over the operating system including updated openssl. Smaller improvements have also been introduced to several areas such improved browser panning performance.
For more details check the tables comparing packages and changes between this release and the latest OS2008 update.
Where can I download new image? and which exact version does it have?
http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N800.php was reporting "Access denied" some time ago, now its redirection to http://maemo.org/news/planet-maemo//tabletsdev/nokia_N800.php that reports 404.
Can somebody fix this page? :-E
Upgraded to Diablo. NOT thrilled. I see ONE advantage: That I won't have to reflash in the future for upgrades (something that should've been done LONG ago) But major disadvantages. More crashes. The browser crashes more often, and so does the clunky new mail app. WHY couldn't they have LEFT THE E-MAIL APP ALONE??? The new one not only crashes regularly, but it no longer allows me to see e-mail from both of my accounts in the same box. It got rid of the foward button, the folder organization is clunky, I can no longer remove e-mails from the server, the setup was NOT easier, I can't see html, as there's no option to turn it on or off. This is NOT an improvement
ve got a problem trying to update my n800 to the latest os.I run the update,follow the instructions.All it says is serching,then says cant find device.The usb logo is displayed in the top right hand of the screen.Ive never had any problems before when updating.My n800 is working fine.I tried iton my pc(xp) and in a internet cafe(vista)with no luck.Any ideas on what the problem could be are welcome.
@Omar F Rodriguez: For the current Java state, see https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2695
@B nik: If you run into problems with Modest, please file bugs at https://bugs.maemo.org !
Could the old e-mail program be made available as an optional downnload? I am getting fed up with the new prograam (i.e. Modest) BUGS!! It sometimes tells me one of my account details are wrong (sometimes it doesn't!!). Right hand window resizes on each startup. I have no way of selectively deleting e-mails from the server... list goes on... Can the old e-mail program be made available to download ??
To Richard, I have been around PDAs for some time, having updated both Palm and BB alike. I am not of the same opinion- it does not require a whole lot of technical know-how to update your handheld. Complaining about a desktop application being required in order to update your portable device, sure it may be a valid complaint 20 years from now, but it is hardly a hefty task.
Why not just complain about having to own a desktop computer to get on the internet? Now think closely on this, because you probably wouldn't have heard of the Nokia tablet if you weren't using a desktop system in the first place. Complain about having to use a PC to configure your router or broadband modem too- they require updates, heck so do motherboards. Why can't they just update themselves without turning them on?
Apple is supposed to be some great magical innovator, yet their iPhoney requires a desktop system to update the firmware. How dare they!
I'm not clear on what is so much "work" with install software. It isn't a daunting task to perform an Uninstall of Windows applications, least not BB-based handheld code downloads. I keep several on my computer at one time and can remove them any time with a few clicks- no manual cleanup necessary.
What was a PITA back in the day was Inhellisink software for synchronizing your PDA over the cable. Its integration/conduits for office software and PDAs kept many a tech employed.
I welcome the improvements in the Diablo release, the self-updating OS with notifications. Evolution is key in this game as the field is growing and the fans are less qualified. Nokia is working in the right direction with the input and feedback of those who are more qualified.
I am neither a developer nor a coder- I already get too little sleep, but some is better than none!
I like this "new" feauture, but i still wonder, when i am gonna have java on my nokia n800, not talking about jalimo or some alike VM,
Thanks for this update, Nokia. The update process was flawless for me, including restoring my apps. This device has become a real pocket linux computer over time! Hats off to you for continuing to improve it. I beleive the SSU will make this device appealing to more mainstream users, well done.
Regarding getting the chinook extras; the easiest way is to install one of them from os2008 download page; say maemo recorder from here: http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/maemo-recorder/ This will then add chinook extras repo. to your applications catalougue.(it asks you first if you want to add the new catalogue; and you say yes).
Hi Guys,
Could someone kindly tell me how to go about adding in the Application Catalogue for the Chinook Extras? - I've upgraded to 4.1 and have been very disappointed to find that basically none of the applications which I previously used are available for download anymore!
b Nik mentioned this worked for him, so I'm keen to try also!
Thanks in advance guys! Noobie
While the 810 may be intriguing for developers and coders, I purchased it as a step up in screen size and functionality from smaller hand-held devices.
There are many issues with the 810 for an average user like myself - the keyboard is frustrating; the touch stylus accuracy is questionable; the unit weighs too much; etc. So my 810 is on my 'almost but not quite' list.
As for the idea of installing an 'install app' on a desktop machine to update the 810, any one who has been through that scenario with Palm, Windows Mobile or the Blackberry is likely to never want to do it again after they finally manage to uninstall and clean up after the install software.
I'd like to suggest that the install of the new 810 software be configured so it can be copied to an SD card and installed from the card to the 810.
While generally undocumented, this is easily done with many mobile devices.
So until skype and video are in the same word group the idea of flashing and having to reconfigure my 810 settings using desktop install software has no appeal at all.
Just a note about the extras repo. If user loads the Chinook extras repo. into the application manager in Diablo, it seems to work. I successfully installed UKMP, Maemo-mapper and Mplayer this way. In fact I have almost all my applications working again now. Feedback on the Diablo itself: generally looks very good. Modest took a bit of configuring!! The default setting for NTL smpt was wrong! I will raise a bug ticket.
Thanks for the feedback!
Bugs and enhancement requests to the Modest component will be handled just as they were handled previously in the beta period.
Problems with third party applications are related to the fact that the Maemo community has decided to implement a better proces to handle the maemo.org extras repository, with the objective of guarantee to end users that applications in extras install properly and don't come with any problems of missing dependencies etc. That was disturbing for most users until Chinook, but it won't happen in Diablo. The bootstrapping process got a bit of delay but the apps will appear again in extras and this time you will be certain that they install flawlessly. More at https://wiki.maemo.org/Diablo_extras_repository_proposal
This release is multilingual. German is supported just like the rest of main languages official in the countries where the N800/N810 are sold.
Being new to the world of maemo through my N810 I wonder if this is a multilingual release or just English? I would be in need of a German version but there is no word on the supported/included languages anywhere! Any ideas? Thanks!
install a new image for my tablet only to have all my apps removed and not restored from the backup ... what genius at nokia thought this one up??!!??
i'll wait til i can actually do anything useful with it before i update again
meanwhile back at the previous version download site...
So far so good with the new update. It seems much faster and works better with multi-tasking.
Question: What do we do with reported bugs for Modest that were not addressed while in beta? Specifically Bug 2922 - https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2922 thanks
Nokia didn't invent apt-get, nor open source email applications (or Chinese language). This is true. There are not many devices fitting in your pocket supporting full system upgrades without reflashing, but devices running Maemo 4.1 do now. This is also true, and worth mentioning in an announcement.
About the "fun", if you find any bug or missing feature please go to http://bugs.maemo.org and explain in detail your expected outcome. Thank you!
Anyone know if they enabled Mac partitions?
Did they update all the developer and sdk trees so that I can compile everything in scratchbox after following the directions exactly? Or when is that going to happen.
Yaay, Nokia has invented something that was in most of Linux distros for years...

City woman, 37, charged with three Manchester burglaries
MANCHESTER — A 37-year-old woman was charged in connection to three residential burglaries Wednesday after she was arrested exiting a drug store where she allegedly purchased two items with a stolen credit card, police said.
Nicole Colon, 37, faces three charges of burglary, two counts of credit card fraud, receiving stolen property, forgery and theft by deception.
The city has been plagued by a string of recent burglaries. In the first week of July alone 30 homes and businesses were burglarized, police reported.
Police allege Colon is connected to three:
• 241 North St. on July 9.
• 579 Beech St. on July 8.
• 279 Laurel St. on June 14.
Police linked her to the burglaries based on use of items stolen in the break-ins. Hours after the Laurel Street burglary, she allegedly cashed a check taken from the home and later pawned jewelry from the home at a local pawn shop.
The North Street homeowner gave police a description of a burglar that matched Colon's description and Colon allegedly cashed a check stolen the same day as the Beech Street burglary.
She was arrested while exiting the CVS store at 432 S. Main St.

At least 20 killed in Kenya clan violence
August 28, 2013
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A Kenyan official says at least 20 people were killed in violence among rival clans in Kenya's north.
Ukur Yattani, the governor of Kenya's Marsabit county, said Wednesday that automatic weapons and rocket-propelled grenades were used in clashes between the Borana and Gabbra clans.
Yattani said the two groups as well as a third —the Burji— have recently been fighting over water and pasture for their cattle.
Police spokesman Gatiria Mboroki said some houses were apparently set on fire but gave no death toll.
Kenya has stringent gun laws, and obtaining a license is difficult. But illegal guns are smuggled into the country through porous borders, especially from Somalia, Kenya's volatile neighbor to the north.

Intense Sports May Be OK With Heart Devices, New Study Reveals
Maybe those heart defibrillators can take more of a wallop than you think.
New research is challenging medical guidelines that say people with a heart-zapping device in their chests should avoid intense sports like basketball and soccer in favor of golf or bowling.
Lots of patients ignore that take-it-easy advice and stay in the game, and Monday's findings suggest vigorous exercise may be safe for many of them after all.
A registry tracked 372 people who stuck with competitive sports after having a defibrillator surgically implanted to guard against dangerous irregular heartbeats — and found that the lifesaving device worked when needed despite the physical exertion.
"This is good guidance for many of the sports. It should be reassuring that in fact many people can participate," said Dr. Gordon Tomaselli, a former American Heart Association president who wasn't involved with the new study — and cautions that questions remain.
More than 100,000 defibrillators are implanted in U.S. patients every year, devices that can detect when an abnormal heartbeat is forming and automatically shock the heart to help it get back into rhythm. Most recipients are older people with heart failure, too sick to worry about sports.
But increasingly, teenagers and younger adults receive these implants, people who may be more active and fit but have some underlying heart abnormality that puts them at risk of an arrhythmia. Last year, Utah State forward Danny Berger collapsed on the basketball court, was revived and had a defibrillator implanted; he has said he hopes to play again. Harder still is how to advise people who get the implants as a precaution, before any symptoms of trouble.
The big questions: Do the implants fire properly under the physical duress of competitive sports? Do they emit painful shocks more often? Might they break with a hit to the chest?
To begin finding out, Yale University heart specialist Dr. Rachel Lampert opened a national registry that, over 2½ years, tracked defibrillator patients who decided to stick with sports. They included some high school and college athletes, as well as people who participated in community-level basketball, soccer, tennis and other sports or were runners, skiers, even a few rock climbers.
The implants did have to fire more often during physical activity, whether the people were playing ball or running for the bus. But they did their job — no one died, had to be resuscitated or experienced a shock-related injury, Lampert reported Monday in the journal Circulation.
During the study, 77 people received shocks: 10 percent during sports, 8 percent during other physical activities and 6 percent while resting. About two-thirds who received a shock did return to their sport rather than deciding to give it up, Lampert said.
"Despite the fact that people got shocked, they didn't have anything dangerous happen to them: The device worked," she said.
"It doesn't mean every patient can be doing every sport," Lampert added, advising that implant recipients talk with their doctors first. But, "we probably don't need the blanket restrictions in place."
However, the study is small and Tomaselli, the former heart association president, warned among the top concerns is whether contact sports, such as football and hockey, might loosen the implant. Too few of those patients enrolled in the registry to draw conclusions.
In addition, some patients with a rare heart condition required multiple shocks when they had an irregular heartbeat.
Still, "one of the reasons for having a defibrillator is to restore as much of a normal life as you possibly can," Tomaselli noted. To many people, "taking away competitive athletics is taking away a part of them."
When people do continue sports with the implant, Tomaselli said coaches, family and others must be fully aware of the risks — and there should be an external defibrillator available during competition and practice in case the implant fails and emergency resuscitation is needed.
The study was paid for by three defibrillator manufacturers.

The Pacific golf team survived a rough front nine Friday morning, thrived on the back nine in the afternoon and will play for a chance to advance to the NCAA Championship today.
The Tigers are tied for fifth place after the second round of the NCAA Regional in Pullman, Wash., at 13-under 563, and sophomore Eric Sugimoto is tied for fourth among individuals at 9-under 135 after shooting 70 on Friday.
Pacific had a tough time on the front nine at Palouse Ridge Golf Club, with only freshman SeungJae Maeng shooting even par, but everyone recovered down the stretch, including Sugimoto who carded birdies on the final three holes. Pacific shot 1-over 289 for the day.
Top-seeded Cal leads the tournament at 35 under, USC is second at 24 under, Saint Mary's is 19 under, TCU is 15 under, and San Diego State is tied with Pacific at 13 under. The top five teams at the end of today's final round and the top two individuals from non-advancing teams move on to the NCAA Championship in Atlanta, later this month. Pacific's lone trip to the championship came in 2002.
"They just kept hanging around, hanging around and we closed strong," Pacific coach Brandon Goethals said. "They fought their tails off and stayed within themselves to finish with a fury. We're playing with passion, and this is the loosest I've ever seen them. I'm so happy they'll be playing for something special, and we have nothing to lose."
Pacific will tee off at 7:50 a.m. today and play in a group with TCU and San Diego State.
USC's Sam Smith has a six-shot lead on the field at 18-under 126, while Cal's Michael Weaver (12 under) and Joel Stalter (11 under) are in second and third, respectively. Sugimoto is tied with Mac McClung of Saint Mary's at 9 under.
"It was windy and tough out there on the front (nine)," Sugimoto said. "My ball striking wasn't the best, so I changed my mind-set and stopped being as aggressive to avoid stupid mistakes. The back nine was a lot easier."
Maeng shot 69 and is tied for 16th place at 4-under 140, and sophomore Byron Meth shot 3-over and is tied for 25th place at 3-under 141. Senior Alex Edfort had a 76 and is 4 over.

April 13, 2012 — Spring Snow and Much Cooler Weather on the Horizon
Off and on showers will continue in Casper today and also cross the rest of the state this afternoon and tonight. The higher elevations will see a rain/snow mix to all snow. There will continue to be pockets of strong mainly west winds in portions of southeastern and central Wyoming. Casper will make it into the 40s to near 50 this afternoon with lows in the 30s tonight (20s on Casper Mountain).
Day showers are expected statewide on Saturday, with mixed showers to all snow at night. The precipitation will intensify late Saturday into Sunday as a cold front moves through the state. Showers will mix with and switch to all snow in the lower elevations Saturday night into Sunday morning. For now it looks like Casper will be on the edge of the heavier precipitation and snow, but a couple of inches of wet snow will be possible in town with more on Casper Mountain.
Livestock growers and travelers need to be aware of deteriorating weather conditions late Saturday into Sunday. A Winter Storm Watch has been issued for portions of southeast Wyoming from late Saturday night through Sunday morning. Driving conditions along eastern portions of I-80 will become very challenging. Sunday will also be a colder day. Highs in Casper on Sunday will struggle to make it out of the 30s.

Powerful typhoon skirts Taiwan, north Philippines
TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — The most powerful typhoon this year approached a group of small islands between southern Taiwan and the northern Philippines on Friday with ferocious winds of 205 kilometers (127 miles) per hour, and authorities warned that the region faces torrential rains and destructive gusts.
Typhoon Usagi was on track to pass near Batanes Islands, the northernmost part of the Philippines, as it moves across the Luzon Strait close to Taiwan's southernmost Hengchun peninsula.
Weather forecasters project it will pass south of Taiwan and move toward southern China, hitting shore near the Guangdong-Hong Kong coastline on Monday morning.
They say it is a very large tropical typhoon with a diameter of 1,100 kilometers (680 miles). Its outer rain bands were extending across the main northern Philippine island of Luzon and southern Taiwan and strong winds outward up to 220 kilometers (135 miles).
It is packing the 24-hour rainfall accumulation of 500 millimeters (nearly 20 inches) near the center of the typhoon.
Philippine weather bureau forecaster Alvin Pura said that the typhoon had gathered strength and speed with gustiness of 240 kph (150 mph).
The Batanes Islands, population 16,000, were placed under the highest storm alert, while lower warnings were raised in at least 15 northern provinces where officials warned of flash floods, landslides and storm surges.

There's always glitz and glamour at Cannes, France, during its annual film festival, and it's no different this year. But there's still a heavy infusion of gold to come this week at Thursday's amfAR gala, which will treat its celebrity guests to 40 of the world's top models in "The Ultimate Gold Collection Fashion Show," curated by Carine Roitfeld.
It's the 20th edition of the gala, which raises money for AIDS research, and the "ultimate" show builds on a smaller one that launched last year. This time, Karlie Kloss, Karolina Kurkova, Angela Lindvall and Alessandra Ambrosio will be dripping in gold jewelry and wearing gleaming gowns by Giorgio Armani, Alexander Wang, Marchesa and Louis Vuitton, among others.
"It was really hard to choose a dress for this," said Eva Cavalli, who is donating a mermaid, sequin-covered gown from the Roberto Cavalli archive that Kurkova will wear to open the show.
"Gold for Cavalli is THE color: the color of sun, positivity, warmth, joy," said Cavalli, Roberto's wife and design partner. "But it was hard to choose for this. I also thought of gold leather, but I was thinking that I wanted to give something really special, and this is one of the most beautiful pieces we ever did."
Charity catwalks such as this add a little sense of competition among designers, she said, but "only because everyone wants to do more, give more and be involved more, but in a friendly way."
She bought a Valentino red gown at another amfAR event. "I've never worn it, but it looks good and maybe I will wear it someday."
Years ago, fashion wasn't a big part of the event — or even the film festival, Roitfeld said, but there were so many beautiful dresses and so many beautiful faces that it was ripe to make a big, bold style statement. "It's so glamorous and generous at amfAR. Why not?"
Roitfeld, who usually has a uniform of black or khaki, said she'll wear gold, "which is a big deal for me."
She'll be mingling with Sharon Stone, Heidi Klum, Jessica Chastain and Harvey Weinstein, among others, and scheduled performers include Duran Duran, Shirley Bassey, Ellie Goulding and Hot Chelle Rae. The event will stream live at the Lovegold.com website.
"We had to make it more fun than other fashion shows. It's not all journalists and the people who go to fashion shows at Cannes. We have to entertain. ... It's more like a Victoria's Secret show, where they create the dream of women to have wings on their back. We're doing the same thing with our girls," Roitfeld said. "We're not there to sell the dress. The models are there more to flirt with the audience."
She added: "Charity is always a good excuse to mix people with models."

Drivers Optional
Ready for the day when you can let your car take the wheel? The Lexus LS 460L promises that day will be here sooner than you think.
(Business 2.0 Magazine) -- First things first. As abundantly advertised, the Lexus LS 460L can park itself. Or, more accurately, it can use an array of onboard ultrasonic sensors, miniature cameras, electric motors, and vehicle-detection technology to help you shimmy the sedan into a space no less than 4 feet longer than its almost 17-foot-long self.
The process is not the gee-wizardry portrayed on the tube, but it's nonetheless a boon to the lazy or insecure driver. More important, it's a herald of our automotive future.
Allow me a moment to deflate the conventional wisdom of car reviews, which take as an article of faith that the public enjoys driving high-powered, tightly sprung, manually shifting vehicles.
In fact, it doesn't. In further fact, many people don't like to drive at all, at least not on their workaday commutes, which is what American drivers do in their cars 83.4 percent of the time.(I made up that last figure, but you get my drift.)Rather, what many drivers crave is a car smart enough to drive them - a Jetsons-style luxury pod that purrs forth from the garage and delivers its human cargo to their destination suitably calm and cosseted.
Well, folks, I have good news: The LS 460L is damned close to being such a car. It is, arguably, the most intelligent production vehicle ever offered for sale. I could cite dozens of examples of just how sentient this car is - and I inevitably will - but here's one small tease: It can tell if you're getting amorous in the backseat.
Moreover, after the infrared matrix sensor mounted in the ceiling scans the heaving chests and tingly areas of any pawing passengers, it will communicate skin-surface temperature readings along 11 high-speed networks to 72 ECUs, signaling the climate system to gradually cool the rear passenger zones (if occupants in dishabille are getting too steamy) or gently heat the same zone (if said occupants are getting a bit chilly).
Also, the Lexus will pump cool air into the built-in backseat icebox, where, no doubt, a split of postswirl bubbly awaits.
Tragically, the only action the LS saw while in my care was that of a slumbering Labrador, so such accommodation was wasted. No matter - the car took care of me in myriad other ways.
For one, the Lexus essentially drove itself, effortlessly covering - to cite one excursion - 100 miles of highway and winding lanes from San Francisco to the northern reaches of wine country. This was no simple feat. In an attempt to best the best offerings from Mercedes and BMW (Charts), Lexus embedded the world's first eight-speed automatic transmission in the LS and then swaddled it with enough technology to allow it to "learn" how you drive, so that it might replicate the experience.
Thus, during my first hour in the car, sensors took note of my throttle and brake action, and my quick turn-ins and fast blast-offs. After processing this data, the Lexus proceeded to take over, mimicking and then improving on my driving patterns - kind of like HAL relieving Dr. Dave Bowman of his pesky spaceship duties.(Before attempting to kill him.)
Anyway, the result of this omniscience is a car in which you never feel an errant shift or sidelong drift, and never really put yourself or the sedan at risk. Lexus claims that its goal was to build "a vehicle that does not cause accidents."
To that end, various versions of the LS will soon employ a steering-wheel-mounted camera and image-recognition technology, to see if the driver's eyes are on the road. If the pesky human nods off (or starts watching the carbon-based action in the backseat), and if the LS's bevy of radars and ultrasonic sensors determine that he's about to smack a deer or another car, it will sound a warning, pre-tense the seatbelts, tighten the suspension for evasive maneuvers, and ready the brakes for maximum bite.
Imminent rear-enders will spark a similar shakedown, including the activation of "intelligent" headrests, which instantly reposition themselves to minimize whiplash. (Unfortunately, FCC regs have delayed the introduction of some of these features in U.S. models, but Lexus remains hopeful. Write your congressman.)
Now, if all this sounds as though the LS intends to render the driver moot, it does. On my weekend jaunt, my presence was barely required. I merely tapped a destination into the GPS, set the adaptive cruise control to 85, and pointed the nose north.
Then, for almost two hours, I never touched the gas or brake - the Lexus used radar sensors to handle the traffic, speeding and slowing as needed, and employed a satellite system that pulls data from various traffic cams, police scanners, and departments of transportation to reroute us around potential trouble spots.
Meanwhile, I happily ripped CDs into the LS's 30-gig hard drive, twiddled with the 450-watt sound system, listened to an audiobook, and figured out how to set the rear seats to massage the dog.
Next thing I knew, our commute was over, and the car was beeping that it had spied an open parking spot. By this time the dog was wondering where the nearest tree might be, so I eased to a start point a few feet in front of the empty space (the car lets you know exactly where, natch), dropped it into reverse, tapped a button on the GPS screen, and released the wheel, which spun with ghostly purpose until the Lexus was perfectly parked - at which point it pinged, settled a fraction of an inch, and announced, with authority, "You have arrived at your destination."
Yes, I suppose we have.

The euro fell for the first time in six days against the yen as European Union finance ministers gathered for a third meeting this month to try to reach agreement on aid for Greece.
The 17-nation currency dropped from a three-week high versus the dollar after pro-independence parties in Spain's Catalonia won a majority in a regional election, underpinning a drive for a referendum on secession. The yen rose against all of its 16 major counterparts as a decline in global stocks boosted demand for safer assets and after a technical indicator signaled its recent slide was excessive.
"Today is critical in terms of reaching the agreement, which is not very much expected," said Vassili Serebriakov, a currency strategist at BNP Paribas SA in New York. "What's interesting with the euro is how it's shown resilience to bad news."
The euro declined 0.5 percent to 106.44 yen at 9:34 a.m. in New York after rising to 107.14 yen, the highest level since April 27. The single currency fell 0.1 percent to $1.2962 after climbing to $1.2991 on Nov. 23, the strongest since Oct. 31. The yen gained 0.3 percent to 82.11 per dollar.
Canada's dollar fell against all its major counterparts, declining from almost a two-week high versus its U.S. peer as risk appetite waned. The Canadian currency, known as the loonie, weakened 0.2 percent to 99.46 cents per U.S. dollar.
Reserve Currency
The currency got a boost last week after the International Monetary Fund's move to deem the Australian and Canadian dollars reserve assets, bolstering demand even as the commodity boom that drove the currencies to the strongest since at least 2007 loses steam. The loonie added 0.8 percent last week, the most since the five days ended Aug. 10.
Finance chiefs from the single-currency bloc started their meeting at 12:30 p.m. in Brussels, less than a week after an all-night gathering failed to yield agreement and days after a European Union summit broke up without a proposed seven-year budget. At stake is the continuation of a three-year mission to return Greece to financial health.
"It would be irresponsible not to reach an accord given all the efforts that have been made," French Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici said yesterday on BFM television.
A solution is hung up on politics in Germany, the dominant country in Europe's crisis management, where Chancellor Angela Merkel is campaigning for a third term next year on the pledge that Greece won't cost taxpayers an additional cent.
"It seems a final agreement for Greece is very close although this is another measure which kicks the can down the road," said Lee Hardman, a foreign-exchange strategist at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd. in London.

An absolute waste of time and money. We have been waiting for 5 weeks to have our expensive Kenmore Elite washing machine repaired after owning only 3 years. First repair technician comes out, charges $89 to say he will have to replace the part (here for a total of 10 minutes). We agree to order the part out of pocket since the washer is no longer under warranty.
Had the part overnighted (additional out of pocket) and it takes over a week to get the repair technician back out to install. He is then unable to remove a nut to remove the old part and tells us that he can't put the new part in because he's not authorized to cut the nut off for fear of damaging the drum (here for 15 minutes this time). If we can cut it off ourselves, he said he would come back out and install the new part.
My husband was able to cut if off and we scheduled another service, with the soonest date being a week later, specifically reminding them that this nut had to be cut off, and that it would have to be replaced. I was informed by customer service that they have no way of knowing which parts the repair technicians have in stock and that I cannot request that they have a certain part before they come out.
Next scheduled service date, no one showed up. We called customer service and the technician called in sick. Rescheduled for today, again, the soonest date available that was a week after the last one, no one showed up again. Called customer service again, technician will not come out because now they will have to order the nut that has been cut off. Meanwhile we have spent 5 weeks without a washing machine, and the part that needs to be replaced sitting on the floor of the laundry room.
At this point, I just want my $89 refunded and I will hire someone else to fix my washing machine rather than deal with this crappy service any longer. Additionally, I've spent 3 hours being passed back and forth between Kenmore (the brand) and LG (the manufacturer) and no one wants to take ownership of this washer because for the price of it originally, we should not even be in this position 3 years later having to fix it.
OHIO -- Kenmore Elite model 74025 is 6 mos old and broke down. Called Sears repair Dec. 20 they said fan froze up. Sending parts - can't be here till Dec. 30 to fix. Stuffed as much into mini fridge as possible threw everything else out. Dec. 30 after waiting 3 hours Sears called repairman ill - can't be here till Jan 4 to fix. Sorry already took a day off I'm not available till Jan 7. Now I guess I'll wait to see if it gets fix then.
I emailed Kenmore 1 1/2 weeks ago haven't heard from them either. I spent $6,000 in all new appliances guess it wasn't enough to expect better customer service. Consumers should expect to have a more timely repair on refrigerators. If you're that backed up maybe there's a problem with your quality.
MICHIGAN -- I have purchased 2 of these dishwashers (bought one for me and one as a gift :/, bought at the same time). BOTH of them are ABSOLUTELY INFERIOR QUALITY to anything I have ever bought!! BOTH dishwashers have had wheel pins (things wheels snap on to) that have literally fallen apart twice!!! ALL the wheel pins have failed on the top and lower racks of BOTH dishwashers twice!! We have a water softener and are reasonably gentle with our appliances. Simply trash!! I will NEVER buy another KENMORE product.
I had an online chat with Sears/Kenmore, at the end I asked for an address to elevate this complaint to. They told me to contact Whirlpool for such. I called Whirlpool and they told me to contact Kenmore, because even though Whirlpool manufactures it, they make it to Sears/Kenmore's specifications!! UNBELIEVABLE!!
I bought a Kenmore/Elite Trio from Sears. I found out afterwards it was made by LG. It was installed at Christmas, 2005. Shortly thereafter I noticed ice on the meat drawer in freezer. Sears tech came out about another problem and did not seem concerned about the ice. For the next year, the ice would build up, I would clean it off. In 2010 it became unbearable since water was pouring in the floor, 2 in. of ice on freezer bottom each week, all food covered in ice.
Called Sears - was told I would have to commit to $250 up front and they would be out in 2 weeks. Day of appt. arrived and they called to cancel - said they would have to come another day. I could not commit since my husband has alzheimers, parkinson, one leg, and heart disease. He was going through many tests and I am his sole caregiver, making an appt. for anything requires a lot of prep in advance.
I called a local company that came that day but the tech said there was a problem with the evap. fan motor, but he could not get info from Sears on how to fix it. Paid $95 for that. The water continued pouring and the ice had to be cleaned out every week - by lying on the floor and cracking the ice with a pancake flipper and sliding it out on a tray to be dumped. Not great for a 65 year old. After Christmas, I contacted a tech that has been in business over 50 years and he confirmed it was something to do with the evap. fan motor but Sears would not divulge how to fix it and only Sears techs had that info.
He also said there was a service flash that many of the same appliances had the same prob. Paid him $75 and then called Sears. Said there was a service flash but I would have to pay $70 for a tech to confirm that I had a problem. He did but then told me the company said I would have to pay $376 for parts and labor.
I refused and began calling. I was switched from Sears Resolutions, to Sears Customer Service, to LG, to a company that recalls parts, to Kenmore Elite, to Sears Resolutions. Said they could offer me $65 or 10% off a new fridge after I had just said I was not spending any more money with them. Again was told to call back next morning after tech's report had gotten in the system.
Kenmore Elite agreed that I should not pay, said LG should. Sears said that LG should but that my warranty expired in Dec. 2010. NO ONE and I mean NO ONE had told me before that LG had a warranty on the parts until Christmas 2010. Sears broke their contract with me by not showing the year before on the service call and just casually said they would have to reschedule.
I have been told to give up, pay the money, and move on because either the $65 or 10% off a new appliance is the best offer I will get. I spent a little over $2000 for this appliance and Sears, Kenmore Elite and LG have all passed the buck, ignored the hundreds of people that have the same complaint, delay appt. times until people give up and their warranties run out.
I have only hit the highlights of what I have been through. This has taken a lot from my health as I suffer from high blood pressure, has really interfered in the care of my husband, have to watch for water pouring on the floor to keep from falling and then to be insulted by being passed off to person after person and made to feel like a complete idiot when I said they should pay for a defective part. If the part was worn out, then I would certainly agree to pay, but this has been a problem since the beginning of 2006. Nobody listens and nobody cares, but Sears will lose far more business than this would have cost them to resolve the problem.

Two years ago, when we began our mostly DIY kitchen remodel, we bought a Kenmore Dishwasher and a Kenmore Range, spending about $1,000 total. We do not have a lot of money, so this was a huge expense for us. First, right after the one-year warranty passed, our range began malfunctioning in a disturbing and dangerous way. The burner would heat to blazing hot, no matter what temperature it was set at, and would refuse to turn off when we turned it off.
I spent several days fighting with Kenmore on the phone, and they finally sent someone to fix the malfunctioning burner. Not long after, the other burners started doing the same thing. Not long after, I saw that some Kenmore flat-top ranges had been recalled for doing *exactly what mine was doing*.
I called Kenmore to tell them that mine was obviously a lemon and should be recalled, and that the recall says that doing what my range was doing constitutes "a fire and a burn hazard to consumers." The guy basically said, "sorry too bad" and was very cocky and told me that if mine specifically wasn't part of the recall, they would do nothing, regardless of if I "feel" it's a fire and burn hazard. I couldn't believe his attitude.
Second, the dishwasher. A few months ago, it stopped cleaning the top rack and stopped getting the soap out of the dispenser. It was diagnosed as needing a new pump, which costs almost as much as buying a new dishwasher, at less than two years old. Now Sears wants $200 to fix it.
Hmmm, do I give this company $200 more of my money and reward them for making crappy appliances that crap out right after their year warranty is up? Or do I put my defective Kenmore on the curb and buy a dishwasher from a real company? We just now finished our remodel and the "new" appliances we bought, after just barely two years, have both crapped out and are worse than the old ones we got rid of. Learn from my mistake - DO NOT BUY A KENMORE!!!
My wife and I purchased all new Kenmore elite kitchen appliances two years ago. Since day one we have had nothing but trouble with the appliances. This includes refrigerator, range top, range vent, microwave, and dishwasher. the dishwasher was the first thing to go bad. from the second it was plugged in, it did not work. it appeared Sears had sold us a demo dishwasher as a new one. The motherboard was defective and it was delivered with the power cord attached. The problem with this is the fact new ones do not come with a power cord, and are intended to be hard wired. When confronted, they quickly replaced it.
After being replaced, it wasn't long before, you guessed it, this one broke down and again I was running the gauntlet with Sears to get it repaired. Not long after this the refrigerator stopped functioning properly. Luckily, it was under warranty and I did not have to pay the 800.00 dollar bill. Soon after this, the main heating element in the oven simply burned into two pieces. It was like pulling teeth to get this fixed.
After extensive calling, Sears came around to getting it fixed. Again, this was under warranty. It doesn't stop here. Now my appliances are out of warranty and everything is falling apart. The oven door hinge has fallen off and the oven is displaying an F10 code. The company will do nothing to help and this problem will require a 2-4 hundred dollar fix. It gets better, the range vent is electronic and submerges and emerges from behind the range once turned on. When one pushes the button to turn it on, it comes on and goes up and down continuously, and not working at all of course.
In case you are wondering or considering buying Kenmore elite products, consider this. My wife and I are older, we do not have children at home, are seldom home to use the appliances and are particular about caring for our belongings. To cap this situation off, Kenmore corporation as well as Sears will do nothing to help in this, and couldn't care less. Beware, Kenmore is junk and is the worst of the worst in appliances. Sears is the distributor, who seems to accept and emulate Kenmore's shyster like business practice.
LAWTON, OKLAHOMA -- My husband and I have a Master Protection Plan for all of our Sears appliances since 1983. Recently we decided to request service for some of the appliances that we were having problems with. The A & E repairman arrived in Nov 2013 and did not fix any of the problems nor did he attempt to fix the problems. He stated that I should fix my appliances. His name was **. I told him that we were having problems with the buttons on the washer and dryer i.e. would remain depressed or stuck. He stated that I should clean it with alcohol. Then I told him that the same thing happened on the refrigerator and he stated that I should use alcohol. So I tried the alcohol.
So the refrigerator started dispensing water and would not stop so my kitchen floor was flooded. I called back so another repairman arrived a week later. Let's say his name was **. ** was unsuccessful in repairing the refrigerator and unbeknownst to my husband and I, ** closed the service log and stated that it was repaired. ** stated that the part was not the correct color and that he would check on it.
He also gave my husband his personal number to call him because he ordered a part that he thought would fix the water problem. So when the part arrived, ** did not answer his phone nor did he return messages left on his voice mail. Finally we called Sears and scheduled another service. We explained to Sears that the part that was ordered - was the wrong part according to **.
So Sears ordered a new part. Another technician came named **. ** arrived without a part. ** has no idea of the service history. So his supervisor asked him to leave our residence. Then ** came out and referred to this part as "cosmetic." After talking with Sears my husband and I were instructed to pay something for this part and we may be reimbursed for this "cosmetic" part. We never wanted a part for cosmetic purposes. I just wanted the repair to stop the defective water leak and ice dispenser leakage.
My husband and I have missed a total of 4 days of work to try to resolve this issue. And to date there is no repair. So what do we do:
1. Continue to call Sears for hours on end
2. Slip and fall and receive a fracture or worse
3. Continue on the same path.
4. Pray that Sears will maintain their end of the service agreement
FLORIDA -- We have a house full of Kenmore products. NEVER will I purchase them again. All have been a problem. I've was a devoted fan for many years. I have a side by side Kenmore fridge, 6 years old. Model #10656532400 series. After only 2-1/2 years the ice maker module broke. Three times I've replaced the same part, all since 2007. Cost is $200+ each time and that's with my husband installing. Water filter has tripled in price since I purchased. Water taste is still poor even though we used to replace 3x per year. We stopped using both the ice maker & dispenser. Installed a used ice maker in the garage freezer that works great. And not a Kenmore either.
Also have a Electric range, glass cooktop model #790.9621.2408. This is only 3.5 years old. Cooktop shattered when it was just 2 years old. It was due to a defect so the tech said. Luckily under warranty at the time, but it still cost me $75 to have them install a new one. Cost to replace the cooktop is over $400. Just last week, the right back burner stopped working. $87 later and no warranty. The bottom of the oven door rusted after only 1.5 years. And that is in a climate controlled house. The left side back burner vent gets so hot it has permanently darkened the paint. Scrubbing only removes the paint.
And now the timer went on my washer, model #100.24732300. Washer is 6 years old. Cost for that part is $113.90 and $15.99 for shipping that will still take a week to get. Cost to ship a part that small is about $5.00. I also just bought a cast aluminum patio set in October 2010. 2 of the swivel chairs have already broken.
I called and emailed Sears three times to return the item. Nobody would help me with the return, all said they would have a manager contact me. Which never happened. BE WARNED, stay away from Sears! I was a Gold Card Member, until I cut it up and returned it to Sears with a letter explaining why. I've never been contacted about my complaints.
When will I learn that Sears products are just not what they used to be? After purchasing a gas range, refrigerator, stackable washer and dryer and a dishwasher from them, nothing but headaches from all. Poor customer service regarding timely repair/replacement of the aforementioned appliances. A dangerous, faulty oven door handle that nearly killed my toddler when the entire thing flew apart upon opening the door and the glass slid out onto my child… They had the nerve to nickel and dime me for their death trap of an oven after I repeatedly contacted them telling them the bolts holding the door together were TOO SHORT!!!
The repairman that eventually came admitted the product was dangerous, defective, etc. and didn't bill me even though Sears argued with me and tried to force me to pay it before they would set up the service call. Now the dishwasher... purchased in 2008 no problems. Suddenly the cycles are haywire and it won't come off of heated dry. I dread making a service call to Sears. Product is no longer under warranty and I refused to waste my $$ on the Master Protection Plan since they have run me around nearly every time I've actually needed service on a product.
So so sad that this company seems to have forgotten how to maintain good customer service with its loyal customers. Impossible to talk to a manager or higher-up over the phone until the problem escalates to a screaming match. Rude service on phone, lengthy wait times for service, often with no-shows. My refrigerator was a no-show delivery, then they dropped it off of the truck and banged it all up, hence causing me another 5 days without one. Get it together Sears, I'm not drinking your kool-aid anymore.

Sign Up for Our Monthly Cruise Newsletter
I accept the T&C and Privacy Policy.
Vacations are supposed to be relaxing, but by the time our overworked brains get the message the vacation is often nearly over. Understanding this dilemma, cruise lines have devised some outstanding spaces that entice guests to slow down, relax and enjoy. These are the ones I love best.
Library, Oceania Marina I immediately fell in love with Oceania Marina's library, and I had plenty of company. It looks like a P.G. Wodehouse or Agatha Christie setting with guests who are reading, sipping and dozing while sprawled out on huge leather chairs.
Be sure to explore the nooks created by the shelves holding 2,000 books and periodicals to find your perfect place. You have to get up very early on sea days to stake out a chair and a favorite nook. On my cruise, some people come to the library at 4 a.m. to grab a chair near the fireplace. The library's English country house atmosphere is beyond soothing. With the availability of coffees and snacks at the adjoining Baristas Coffee Bar, and computers for Internet access, some passengers make a day of it.
Spa Recovery Room, Costa Luminosa Most ships' spa recovery rooms have elegant, minimalistic loungers with a view of the sea, but not onboard Costa Luminosa. Here, guests who have had a massage or other spa treatment can chill out on canopied beds with filmy curtains in a shady, quiet room that seems to inhabit another world altogether. And if you prefer a sunnier spot to let the pampering soak in, you can push open the picket gate to the outside garden from your treatment room, step out and relax in a chair.
Explorations Cafe, Nieuw AmsterdamExplorations Cafe, powered by the New York Times, is my fantasy of what a retreat should be, and guests are constantly saying they need one at home. The ingredients speak for themselves: blissful, squashy leather chairs and couches, Internet stations, pastries, brownies, cupcakes, specialty coffees and thousands of books, magazines, DVDs, newspapers and table games — not to mention vast views of the sea. It's full of guests from morning to night, sending emails, reading, chatting and playing games.
The Hideaway, Celebrity SilhouetteMany ships have comfortable chairs, but Silhouette has nests that for me brought back memories of childhood retreats. Tucked away near an impressive 20-foot live tree that stands over the atrium, the intimate The Hideaway is an irresistible stylized tree house, with comfortable seating and suspended nests where guests can enjoy the peace, read or play with the Apple products from the Celebrity iLounge.
Seabourn Square, Seabourn SojournI never thought I'd choose a purser's desk for relaxation, but Seabourn Sojourn's Seabourn Square makes dealing with questions both serene and pleasurable. The core of the ship and its collective living room, Seabourn Square includes purser and concierge functions but guests sit across from staff — there is no standing and waiting. And the atmosphere is eons away from a typical front desk. This open space at the heart of the ship is gently divided into areas for Internet access, a very fine library of books and magazines and plenty of seating options, from easy chairs and couches to tables and chairs perfect for enjoying the specialty coffees, teas and pastries that are always readily available.

Pinoy Australia Information Forum was founded by a small group of Filipinos whose aim is to migrate to Australia. It is now a leading online Filipino-Australian community site for Filipinos in Australia and a valuable resource for people also planning to migrate to Australia.
I'm very happy to announce PinoyAu Forum's new app called "SimplyStall" . It's a new Gumtree like service for Pinoys in Australia but in a way better!
So if you have any items just collecting dust? Why not convert it to cash?
If you are selling new items or products or wish to give an item away for free then this might be a good avenue for you.
This project is a new initiative to unify and have a common portal for Pinoys in Australia to sell and share stuffs.
It's now available on Google Play and Apple App Store.
Please do try it out. I'd appreciate if you can help me spread the good news and start selling your old or new stuffs.

Two generous donors to Donald Trump's campaign are having buyer's remorse and want their money back after a video recording of Trump describing unwanted sexual advances on women, according to emails obtained by NBC News from a bundler raising money for Trump.
"I cannot express my disappointment enough regarding the recent events surrounding Mr. Trump," one donor wrote to a Trump fundraiser in an email with the subject line "Trump support withdrawal."
A second donor also requested his money be returned because he is "mortified" over the leaked videotape, according to another email obtained by NBC News.
Senior Trump spokesman Jason Miller said the campaign is "unaware of any donors making such a request."

A native of Hannah, South Carolina, country crooner Josh Turner burst onto the scene in 2003 with the powerful "Long Black Train," a song he'd written after listening to a Hank Williams box set. Sounding like a gospel-blues tune from the '40s -- and featuring Turner's deep, rich baritone at the forefront -- "Long Black Train" wrestled with the grand themes of temptation, salvation, death, and redemption. It also earned Turner national media attention, peaking at number 13 on the... Read more

For an oldie like me, being made to witness PDA (public display of affection) on public buses and MRT can be a little uncomfortable. It is not that I think the behavior is absolutely wrong but coming from an era when teenagers holding hands can raise eyebrows, it just shows me how much things have changed in Singapore. If such incidents are not enough to convince you, there are the dramatic stories and scandals that have broken out this year that should convince you that something has fundamentally shifted in in our society's moral values.
If you look for reasons there are probably many factors that contributed to the current state of affairs. Westernization is often blamed but today in China, society is riddled with vice and corruption. Consumerism and materialism - the endless advertising on our media telling us that we should spend our way to happiness. The PAP govt didn't help the situation by building casinos, allowing too many abortions in the past for the purpose of controlling population and pursuing a course of development that seems to put economic growth above everything else. Income inequality is sometimes considered immoral[Link].
Link] is that going to work?
Many years ago, a brave and controversial NUS student union leader decided to give out condoms at a student event. His decision was greeted by opposition from various quarters. He argued that safe sex was necessary to prevent the negative consequences of immoral behavior e.g unwanted pregnancies, diseases etc while his critics argued that his decision sent the wrong message and would encourage bad behavior. At that time I couldn't decide which side was correct. The PAP has a very consistent and conservative approach to this. They discourage 'bad' behavior by making people live with the consequences for the behavior. Single mothers miss out on benefits given out to those who have children, AIDS sufferers do not get subsidized medicine. One Nobel Prize winner was surprised when she visited Singapore because she found that those who contracted HIV have no access to subsidized medicine when even countries like Cambodia offer free treatment.[French expert says HIV infections in Singapore higher than France]. The PAP approach would be considered workable if it yielded good outcomes but it doesn't . For the past 10 years as the HIV infection rates has fallen in most countries including Malaysia but has been rising steadily in Singapore:
