Crisis Mounts:Lawmakers split over bailout

A blogginglore.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default Production
Chaos erupted on Thursday in the negotiations over the proposed financial bailout as lawmakers bickered over competing counterproposals to the Bush administration's $700 billion rescue plan. A meeting at the White House between President Bush, congressional leaders and the presidential candidates was meant to speed approval of an agreement, but instead revealed deep divisions between Democrats and Republicans. Earlier in the day, congressional negotiators said they had agreed to a set of principles on revisions to the rescue plan, which calls for the Treasury Department to buy up bad mortgage securities from banks in an effort to get them to lend again. The proposal will help homeowners, curb executive pay packages at participating firms and provide oversight of Treasury's actions, said Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., a key architect of the congressional effort, in a lunchtime address. "We've reached a fundamental agreement on a set of principles, one, for taxpayers, which is tremendously important," he said. "We're very confident we can act expeditiously." Details on the plans The principles call for Congress to make $250 billion available immediately with $100 billion available, if needed, without requiring additional congressional approval, said two senior Democratic aides familiar with the negotiations. The second half of $350 billion would then become available by a special approval of Congress. On executive compensation, the draft would require limits on compensation for executives of any company participating in the bailout. These caps would apply for as long as the company is in the program. This would include some language to limit excess "golden parachutes." Treasury will also get an equity stake in the companies being helped by the bailout, though what type remains to be worked out. Still to be worked out is whether to allow bankruptcy judges to modify mortgage terms, a provision backed by many Democrats and community activists but opposed by Republicans and the banking industry. The bankruptcy provision is not the only sticking point, however. House Republicans are not on board, according to Minority Leader Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio. "House Republicans have not agreed to any plan at this point," Boehner said. Instead, they issued a statement of economic rescue principles that calls for Wall Street to fund the recovery by injecting private capital - not taxpayer dollars - into the financial markets. Easing tax laws would prompt investors to put in their own dollars, they said. The plan also calls for: participating firms to disclose the value of the mortgage assets on their books, ending Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's securitization of "unsound mortgages," reviewing the performance of the credit rating agencies and having the Securities and Exchange Commission audit failed companies to ensure their financial standing was accurately portrayed. House Republicans also want to create a panel to make recommendations for reforming the financial industry by year's end. Meanwhile, the ranking Republican on the Senate Banking Committee has another idea. Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., said he doesn't support the Treasury plan until there is serious consideration of alternatives. He proposed Thursday adding funds to the Federal Reserve and Treasury to allow them to lend more to financial institutions.
Bush still hopeful Before the afternoon meeting, Bush said he expects a deal "very shortly." After, a counselor to the president said "we're getting closer. There's some more that has to be done. It's going to be a consensus plan at the end of the day." "Both sides are going to have to work hard to get to an agreement," presidential counselor Ed Gillespie said on CNN. Administration officials have spent countless hours this week behind closed doors with and in public hearings before Congress. Lawmakers were hoping to have a deal agreeable to both parties hammered out before Thursday's meeting at the White House. On Wednesday night, Bush took the nation's airwaves in a prime-time address in which he laid out a looming economic disaster. "The government's top economic experts warn that, without immediate action by Congress, America could slip into a financial panic and a distressing scenario would unfold," Bush said. "More banks could fail, including some in your community. The stock market would drop even more, which would reduce the value of your retirement account. The value of your home could plummet. Foreclosures would rise dramatically."

Federal regulators helped arrange the purchase for Washington Mutual after a weeklong sales process led by the investment bank Goldman Sachs among several big banks and private equity firms failed to reel in an interested bidder. Several bidders attracted by WaMu’s vast deposit base had emerged, including Citigroup and Wells Fargo. So did several foreign buyers, including Banco Santander of Spain, HSBC of Britain, and TD Dominion of Canada. But they worried that deepening losses, which could reach an estimated $30 billion, would make it difficult for them to absorb the troubled bank. To make matters worse, a $700 billion emergency bailout package for the financial system that was subject to Congressional wrangling caused some prospective buyers to stop in their tracks while the situation was in flux.

Bailout plan

House and Senate negotiators from both parties said Thursday that they had reached general agreement to move forward with the administration’s proposed $700 billion bailout of the financial system, authorizing unprecedented government intervention to prevent what President Bush warned could be a widespread economic collapse. Emerging from a nearly three-hour meeting in the Capitol, Republicans and Democrats said the legislation would include limits on the pay packages for executives of firms that seek assistance and a mechanism for the government to take an equity stake in some firms, so taxpayers have a chance to profit if the bailout plan works.

The announcement that lawmakers had reached an accord came on a day of political theater at the Capitol and at the White House where President Bush met with Congressional leaders and the presidential candidates, Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, and Senator Barack Obama, Democrat of Illinois. “We’re in a serious economic crisis,” Mr. Bush told reporters as the meeting began, shortly before 4 p.m. in the Cabinet Room of the White House. “This meeting is an attempt to move the process forward. My hope is we can reach an agreement very shortly.” Mr. McCain was seated at one end of a long conference table, Mr. Obama at the other, with the president and congressional leaders between them. Neither spoke, though Mr. McCain smiled broadly as reporters shouted questions that went unanswered by President Bush.

Great iPhone Hacks

Crack Open the Firmware

The first major hack, achieved just three days after the iPhone went on sale, gives wannabe iPhone programmers access to the phone's basic firmware -- the code that makes it run. The iPhone Dev Wiki people managed to download the iPhone firmware from the iTunes server where it sits ready for people who need to do a factory reset. Opening the two encrypted disk images contained within was trickier, but soon yielded the passwords for root access (which gives you superuser privileges) and the default user (named "mobile"), both of which are essential for further access to the innards of the operating system. Difficulty: Very Advanced Details: Hacked: IPhone Firmware Already in the Wild

Gain Access to the Shell

To properly dig around inside any computer, you need some form of access to the underlying system. In this case it's Unix, which OS X is based on. The iPhoneInterface application allows just that. First arriving just over a week after the iPhone launch, iPhoneInterface grants access to the shell, the inner sanctum of Unix. It requires that you make, borrow or steal a serial-to-iPhone cable, but once connected, you should -- in theory at least -- have access to the whole OS. Difficulty: Advanced Details: And they're In! IPhone Shell Access Gained

Install a Suite of Unix Utilities

Once you've got access to the shell, the next step is actually running command-line utilities from it. Nightwatch, member of the iPhone Dev Wiki, built the ARM/Mach-O Toolchain, a set of tools to compile software for the iPhone. He or she also recently released a working shell, which enables you to run command line utilities on the iPhone. This is probably the most significant hack to date as it means you can write and run your own applications on the phone. Nightwatch's utilities don't have the gloss of the iPhone's multi-touch interface, or even a graphical interface of any kind, but real programmers don't need pretty pictures, right? Here is a list of the Unix commands that the Toolchain supports, including remote login access (telnet) and a few utilities for file system manipulation. Nightwatch has also compiled an SSH (Secure Shell) server which enables remote code execution on the phone. Difficulty: L33T Hackers only Details: First Real iPhone Apps, including SSH Hello World: Meet the First Third-Party IPhone App

Get Customized Ringtones

Oddly, despite being an iPod loaded with music, Apple lets you use only the standard -- and fairly lame -- ringtones that ship with the iPhone. There's not even an option to purchase and download new ringtones from AT&T. If you are feeling brave, however, you can use some of the previously mentioned applications to add custom ring tones, in only 20 heart-stoppingly dangerous steps. You will need an Intel Mac, a copy of the iPhoneInterface utility and the iPhone firmware (both mentioned above), as well as a utility called Jailbreak (zip file) that lets you run scripts on the iPhone. This could turn your iPhone into a brick, as you are essentially recompiling the operating system, but as the video below shows, it works.

Lock down your iPhone

The 1Password native app is an early release that has only the core features of its desktop parent application. It will allow you to save web site log in information so you don’t have to tap those usernames and passwords every single time you access a secure web site from your iPhone or iPod touch. It provides ample security of the data on your device by locking everything with a master password along with a 4-digit code, both of which are configurable. And all the password information is synced to your Mac running the 1Password desktop app.
One of the benefits of using 1Password is that you can use its strong password generation feature if you wish. This will create a super strong password for any web site you use. We’re talking about alphanumeric strings of 200 plus random characters, impossible for a normal human to recall, let alone have to type into a password field. 1Password can create these and enter them into your sign in forms for you, automatically. Of course, you don’t have to use this option if you want to define your own passwords. 1Password will handle either one.
1Password also offers anti-phishing technology that is built right into the application. This will prevent you from entering your password into a web site that appears to be PayPal, for instance, but is actually a phishing scam to capture your account information. With 1Password you also get protection from keyloggers, automatic filling of web forms, and synchronization of password information with other computers including iPhone and iPod touch.
Using 1Password’s iPhone sync is a dream for us. Whenever we need to access a private online account, such as our online banking site, we don’t need to recall the correct password or spend time trying to tap it in. We enter the master passcode for 1Password one time and it will auto enter data whenever we need it to.

Air Sharing

Air Sharing from Avatron Software is an extremely robust iPhone application that covers almost all of our data storage and back up needs. The first step to true data portability is the transport mechanism, and this week’s App Store Freebie gives us just that. With Air Sharing, we can mount our iPhones just like an external drive and browse its contents in a familiar directory structure, much like using the Finder. Navigation and scrolling is fast, and we can optionally password protect any directory of our choice. Air Sharing also supports most common file types such as Microsoft Office files, iWork, web pages, pdf, rtf, source code files, and media file types for images, audio, and even video. Air Share is also offers cross platform support that let’s us move our files seamlessly between the iPhone, PC, Mac, and Linux. Air Sharing is at least every bit as good as DataCase and Air Sharing is free of charge, but only for two weeks. As of September 22nd, Air Share will be sold in the App Store for $6.99, so get it while it’s hot.

Air Sharing, an iPhone/iPod touch app that's free only through Sept. 22, is a file storage application that works with Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux systems, as it uses the open WebDAV protocol to accept and share files through your file system or web browser. The app conveniently includes thorough setup and access instructions inside a tabbed Help section. Air Sharing adds unique icons to a whole lot of file types and can preview them, including images, Microsoft Office and iWork files, PDFs, web pages. Air Sharing is free for iPhones and iPod touches for two weeks past its debut yesterday, so grab it while you can. Read on for screenshots and a quick Windows connection how-to. Once you install and fire up Air Sharing, you'll arrive at a basic folder list screen showing what you've got, with options to "Edit" those folders—though all you can really do is delete them from here—and three icons at the bottom of the screen. Also down there is the WebDAV address for your iPhone/iPod touch. If you're itching to get going, you could simply type that into your browser and get a basic download-only view of your files. Click on the Wi-Fi-looking symbol, however, and you'll get a screen showing your "Bonjour" address, which doesn't change from session to session like your IP and gives you additional features on some systems. It's mostly a Mac thing, but it's also installed in Windows when you install iTunes.
