DTN News - SPECIAL REPORT: A Nightmare For An iPad Traveller By Rogers

I had Rogers Flex Rate Plan as 3G for my iPad2 paying $25 monthly since the conception of the Apple darling toll iPad2 early March, 2011. Rogers Flex Rate Plan covers from Coast-to-Coast in Canada only. 

Prior March 2011 and to-date, I had with my family several trips abroad visiting dear, near and friends in the East & West.

DTN News - KOREAN PENINSULA NEWS : North Korea Defies World Opinion With Nuclear Test

DTN News -  KOREAN PENINSULA NEWS : North Korea Defies World Opinion With Nuclear Test

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - February 11, 2013: North Korea on Tuesday staged its most powerful nuclear test yet, claiming a breakthrough with a "miniaturised" device in a striking act of defiance that drew condemnation from global powers including its sole patron China.

The isolated state said its third underground test, after previous detonations in 2006 and 2009 that triggered a raft of UN sanctions, was a direct riposte to what it termed US "hostility".

North Korea's claim of miniaturisation will be of particular concern, suggesting it is a step closer to fitting a nuclear warhead onto a ballistic missile, following its successful launch of a long-range rocket in December.

The confirmation from state news agency KCNA came nearly three hours after seismic monitors detected an unusual tremor at 0257 GMT in the area of the country's Punggye-ri nuclear test site, close to the Chinese border.

Analysts said the timing appeared to be an attention-grabbing calculation from a state well versed in provocative acts, coming just ahead of US President Barack Obama's State of the Union address at the start of his second term.

Obama denounced the test and called for a "swift" and "credible" international response, as the Security Council readied to meet. Condemnation came from others including Russia, while Japan saw a "grave threat" to its own security.

China, whose trade and aid are a life-support to impoverished North Korea, expressed "firm opposition" to the nuclear test and noted that it came "despite widespread opposition from the international community".
