By Tetsushi Kajimoto and Cynthia Kim | TOKYO/SEOUL TOKYO/SEOUL Asian currency policymakers are worried that the strengthening of the dollar on expectations of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s fiscal policies could be used by his administration as a stick to beat them with on trade protectionist grounds. China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan are already on the U.S. Treasury’s monitoring list, along with Germany and Switzerland, having met […]

India’s government is taking a hardline stance over renewing a trade deal with the Netherlands just days before it expires, which European officials warn could undermine business ties with the rest of the EU. The bilateral investment treaty between the two countries will end on November 30 — the first in a succession of such agreements that New Delhi has decided to terminate as it looks for more […]

In late October, when it was still conventional wisdom that Hillary was “guaranteed” to win the presidency, the WaPo explained that among the neo-con, foreign policy “elites” of the Pentagon, a feeling of calm content had spread: after all, it was just a matter of time before the “pacifist” Obama was out, replaced by the more hawkish Hillary. As the WaPo reported, “there is one corner of […]

ABU DHABI // The UN High Commissioner for Refugees has praised the UAE’s pledge to take in 15,000 Syrian refugees, calling it an example for other countries to follow. “It is something I was very happy to hear in New York,” said Filippo Grandi, the UN high commissioner who was in Abu Dhabi on Saturday for the Sir Bani Yas Forum, at which the Middle East’s greatest […]

After everyone from Jesse Jackson, to the terrified mainstream media to prominent Congressional Democrats have called upon Obama to issue a blanket pardon for Hillary Clinton, he finally admitted that it’s not possible to pardon someone who hasn’t yet stood trial for a crime.  And while Obama was referencing a potential pardon of Edward Snowden with his comments, one could assume that the law should be applied […]

FRANKFURT Volkswagen does not expect the German government to make tax demands to cover revenue losses related to the carmaker’s diesel scandal, a company spokesman said on Saturday. In Germany, motor vehicle taxes are tied to the volume of carbon dioxide emissions, among other things. VW, Europe’s largest carmaker, has admitted using emissions-cheating software in a scandal that tarnished its image and left it facing billions of […]

When the UAE implements its framework for public-private partnerships, as announced earlier this month, there will be a list of potential projects up for grabs. But none is more urgent than the commuter corridor between Dubai and Sharjah. Conspicuously neglected, Al Ittihad Road is arguably the worst bottleneck in the country, if not the region. The three-lane highway is guaranteed to turn into a car park — […]

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 […]

Mysterious, flashy radio waves originating from deep space known as fast radio burst or FRB have been a mystery and their sources have eluded astronomers. However, the brightest FRB recorded so far, precisely the 18th, known as FRB 150807 has been viewed by scientists led by Caltech scholar Vikram Ravi. Their findings are going to be a breakthrough for scientists in many respects. The research paper was published in the […]

Huawei has secretly slid in a new variant of the Mate 9, its flagship killer, bringing the total variants to three with the Mate 9 Pro, the Mate 9 Porsche edition and now the Mate 9 Lite, the a new shrunk down version of Huawei’s flagship, specs and size-wise.

DUBAI // The sight of youngsters hauling enormous, overloaded backpacks to class each day is a thing of the past at one Dubai school after it decided to ease the daily burden by moving resources online. From textbooks to PE kits and lunch boxes, pupils often have bags filled to the brim with equipment for lessons. But, instead of piles of books, pupils at Arcadia Preparatory School […]

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 […]

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.

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 […]

The cast of artists, curators, architects and academics who assembled to speak at this year’s Abu Dhabi Art are doing so, primarily, with local or regional themes as their focus.

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.

Al Badia Golf Club is closing with 420 members […]

Submitted by Eric Peters via EricPetersAutos.com, It is good that Hillary lost – obviously. But it may prove to be the worst thing that could have happened. Depending on what Trump does as president. If he governs as a Republican, it is time to pack bags. Because the clock is ticking. We will have – at best – four years before something far worse than Hillary returns, […]

As a last wish, a 14-year-old UK teen convinced the high court to be cryogenically frozen, hoping that one day she will be brought back to life. The girl suffered from terminal cancer, and she explained in court that she wanted to have a chance at living longer. The court ruled that the girl’s mother should be the one to decide on what to do about her […]

Ubisoft will reportedly be incorporating less narrative in its upcoming games. According to an interview with Le Monde (translation from GamesIndustry.biz), Ubisoft’s chief creative officer Serge Hascoet said that each Ubisoft game should be an “anecdote factory.” While the games will still have a story, the more freedom the player has in series like Watch Dogs and Far Cry, the more unexpected things can happen. Hascoet wants […]

Already, many Israelis and Palestinians are buzzing about the prospect. Where would the embassy go? Would it straddle the line between West Jerusalem, which is predominantly Jewish, and East Jerusalem, which is predominantly Arab? Would it touch off street protests in Palestinian cities or a backlash among Arab allies like Egypt and Saudi Arabia?

Vujicic, who is from Melbourne, Australia, is currently on a speaking tour of the UAE. On Thursday he addressed 2,500 students at […]
