Distancing itself from financial meltdown, Citigroup agrees to $7B settlement over mortgages
FILE - This Wednesday, Dec. 5, 2012 file photo, shows a Citi Bank sign in Chicago. Citigroup will pay $7 billion to settle an investigation into risky subprime mortgages, the type that helped fuel the financial crisis. The agreement announced Monday, July 14, 2014, comes weeks after talks between the sides broke down, prompting the government to warn that it would sue the New York investment bank. The settlement stems from the sale of securities made up of subprime mortgages, which fueled both the housing boom and bust that triggered the Great Recession at the end of 2007.

Witty dealmaker Juncker set to be EU's new chief executive
FILE - In this Dec. 13, 2012 file photo, Luxembourg's Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker pauses before speaking during a media conference after a meeting of eurogroup finance ministers in Brussels. The incoming leader of Europe’s most powerful bureaucracy is a master of the backroom deal, and an outspoken and witty career politician who once advocated the right to lie in times of crisis. Juncker, who was prime minister of Luxembourg for almost two decades, was a controversial pick as the 28-nation European Union’s new chief executive, not least because the British government vociferously opposed him.

Got a rash? iPad, other electronic devices containing nickel might be the source, report says
This undated photo provided by American Academy of Pediatrics shows a rash on an unidentified 11-year old boy from a nickel allergy. Case reports in medical journals detail nickel allergies from personal electronic devices, including laptops and cell phones. But it was an Apple iPad that caused an itchy body rash in this 11-year-old boy recently treated at a San Diego hospital, according to a report in Pediatrics. Nickel rashes aren't life-threatening but they can be very uncomfortable, and they may require treatment with steroids, and antibiotics if the skin eruptions become infected, said Dr. Sharon Jacob, an associate professor and dermatologist at the University of California, San Diego and Rady Children's Hospital, where the boy was treated.
