Chinese president Xi Jinping vowed on Saturday to open the door even wider to foreign business and play an even greater role in the process of globalisation as Beijing moved to take advantage of Donald Trump’s election and fears that he may herald a new era of US disengagement from Asia. Speaking to business leaders on the sidelines of a 21-country Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Peru, […]

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Activision PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC Three stars Sticking with tradition despite a planet-hopping sci-fi setting, the latest Call of Duty is a rather conservative addition to the annual first-person shooter franchise, offering safe, market-tested upgrades, including a wisecracking robot, spaceship dogfights, ray guns – and a scarred Kit Harington. While Call of Duty: Infinite ­Warfare includes moments of gaming grandeur, it […]

As SHTFPLan.com’s Mac Slavo notes… While the powers that be are determining the fate of alternative media voices that are now branded under the dubious label “fake news” and blacked out from online search results, it is worth keeping in mind all the disinformation and downright lies that have been perpetrated by the corporate news media – typically hand in hand with a political agenda.   Whether […]

From Fortress Capital: Let’s face it – investing is difficult!  Gone are the days of saving for retirement.  The average savings account in the USA pays less than 1%.  Fortunately for most investors the stock market has been going up and up, but it’s going to correct (it always does).  But it hasn’t been a good ride for all investors.  Many retirees now living off their retirements are […]

Hideo Kojima told a crowd at the Apple Ginza venue in Tokyo on Thursday night that despite any hardship, his passion for creating games is its own reward. When asked by an audience member how he is able to go on as a solo creator after his acrimonious split with Konami and push towards realizing his vision in the face of adversity, Kojima replied, “It’s because I […]

Adam Ondra, a 23-year-old from the Czech Republic considered by some to be the world’s best climber, thought he might cruise up the Dawn Wall of El Capitan. Following the free-climbing route that Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson blazed over 19 days nearly two years ago, having received advice and support from both men, Ondra hoped to complete the nearly 3,000-foot ascent in five or six days.

By Lewis Krauskopf | NEW YORK NEW YORK Arguing over politics is a Thanksgiving Day tradition, but Donald Trump’s presidential election adds a new twist to any bickering at next week’s holiday dinner table: What the new U.S. government could mean for your stock portfolio. Trump’s shock victory last Tuesday sent investors scrambling to change bets predicated on a win by Hillary Clinton, leading to huge stock […]

Both Google and Apple rely on its individual app stores as an added selling point for its smartphone products, because what’s a smartphone without the apps? Simply banking on a huge library, however, is only a small part of the equation. Apps need to have an inherent retention power. They must provide enough features and perform excellently in order to remain situated in a user’s app tray. […]

The Trump trade — sell government bonds because his policies might cause inflation and require huge new borrowing — has already produced a common counter reaction: do not get carried away, this is an opportunity to buy Treasuries before yields collapse again. What it shows is a conditioned response. The first time your dog barks in the night, you leap out of bed with a head full […]

A small shopping centre close to my home with a grocery, dry cleaners, shawarma restaurant and stationers recently shut down. The businesses have been forced to re-locate to the building will soon be demolished.

Five years ago, the only luxury brand that was dabbling in the world of technology was Vertu. And far from becoming a dominant player in the mobile market, it remains an outsider – despite the fact that its product is, in fact, a piece of technology. But over the last few years – probably on the back of brands like Apple and Google increasingly vying for luxury […]

Nicholas Vujicic has come to realise that even if you don’t receive a miracle in life yourself, you can still be a miracle for someone else. The 34-year-old motivational speaker was born with phocomelia, a rare disorder characterised by the absence of arms and legs. Vujicic, who is from Melbourne, Australia, is currently on a speaking tour of the UAE. On Thursday he addressed 2,500 students at […]

A number of children suffer from a quite odd syndrome, which consists of the impossibility to get their hair combed. The German term for this phenomenon is “Struwwelpeter syndrome,” which translates to “uncombable hair syndrome.” A new research conducted by scientists from the Universities of Bonn and Toulouse have spotted the gene mutations that are responsible for this condition. As part of the study, representatives of the […]

Click on to the “secret” Pantsuit Nation Facebook group – a Hillary Clinton support community of sorts – and the first post you’ll find is one written by the administrators.

You know Tony Robbins. He’s the world’s most famous performance and motivational coach. He’s advised everyone from Bill Clinton to Serena Williams, from Leonardo DiCaprio to Oprah Winfrey (who calls him “superhuman”). He was called in to advise Bill Clinton during his impeachment and counts billionaires such as Virgin’s Richard Branson and casino magnate Steve Wynn among friends. He first broke onto the self-improvement scene 30 years […]

You would think that most theatregoers would have seen Les Misérables at least once. After all, it is the world’s longest-running musical, has been translated into 22 languages, performed in 44 countries and seen in more than 350 cities. So to stage this musical for 18 performances at a new theatre that has a capacity of 2,000 is, you would think, a little bit of a gamble. […]

Apple has acknowledged a recurring defect in its two-year-old iPhone 6 Plus, offering customers a cut-price touchscreen repair after months of mounting complaints. The supersized smartphone, launched in September 2014, has a tendency to develop what has been dubbed “touch disease” when dropped or pressured, rendering its touchscreen unresponsive or causing a flickering black line at the top of the display. The term was coined by iFixit, […]

|By Ilyas Zameer| Learning from the past is old. It is no longer relevant in times like today. This world is volatile, unpredictable, catastrophic and yet extraordinarily amazing ( VUCA). Learning from the past can only help you if the future is going to be the same as the past, and it isn’t. November of any year is a great time to plan for the next year. […]
