		<title>Call and send SMS/MMS from your ZTE 3G modem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently wanted to use my cell phone sim card inside my 3G USB stick (a ZTE 3565-Z bought in Croatia), without losing the ability to receive (or make, though I generally use VoIP software for this) calls. Given what these 3G modems were designed for (i.e. modem use), and a previous unsuccessful experience trying [...]]]></description>

		<title>Much Ado About Many Things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have just changed the tag line of this website from boring “Business, Finance &#38; Technology” to the fabulous new one you can see above. Not that these three key topics have been deprecated, but because the Erwin Mayer Foundation encompasses so much more; hence this very flagship had to better highlight what really matters.

		<title>A tip to improve the performance of your Bloomberg API application</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you make a request for data which results in a lot of events generated by Bloomberg API (such as long historical intraday data request, or possibly real time subscriptions), do not use the pattern specified in the API documentation, as it may end up making your application very slow to retrieve all events. Basically, [...]]]></description>

La seule alternative plausible à l&#8217;effective mise sous tutelle du Vieux Continent par l&#8217;Allemagne, telle qu&#8217;attendue par Charles Gave, serait la sortie pure et simple de la zone euro ; permise par les reliquats de nationalisme [...]]]></description>

Now, it should not make us forget the big share of responsibility that the US government had by actively encouraging subprime mortgages.

		<title>Réchauffement climatique : obscurité ou obscurantisme ?</title>

Qu&#8217;on l&#8217;oublie, et c&#8217;est bientôt tout l&#8217;édifice qui s&#8217;écroule.
