Steve Jobs 'Kill' iPhone 5
"Apple has made a prototype iPhone 5, with a bigger screen and form new ones. Some of them even already predict this product will be circulated before December 2011," according to Business Insider. But, the founder of Apple who is also the most influential figure in the company, Steve Jobs, 'kill' the product. What article? There are no rumors that could be validated. Rumors circulating saying, Jobs kill iPhone because it does not like the shape.
As you know, the iPhone's distinctive shape. Unlike the form of smart phones made by Nokia, HTC, and Samsung. The big screen in the iPhone, according to him, will be followed to the Samsung or HTC. All things Android is allergic to Jobs. Apple enthusiast knew the character of Jobs in the design. He adopts a minimalist and shape similarity. So make a product similar to the iPhone with Android could be devastating, according to Jobs, the philosophy of the product. Apple iPhone can no longer see the similarities from generation 1 to 4.
Is this correct? Steve Jobs certainly could not answer, because it already passed away. While other Apple officials? We wait for their clarification. Is there really a murder in Cupertino (Apple HQ).

Twitter now used to offer courses in 140-word bites linked to longer articles, seminars, or podcasts.
Discussion about cardiac arrest on Twitter is common and represents a new opportunity to provide lifesaving information to the public, according to new research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. The Penn investigators presented two studies examining cardiac arrest-information exchange on the social media site recently at the American Heart Association's annual Scientific Sessions.
How many other courses are being taught tweet by tweet on Twitter, and are these courses free or are organizers of the seminars or online courses charging tuition? See, Pupils to study Twitter and blogs in primary shake-up | Education. Also see the sites, Courses Taught | Evrim Baran's Web Home, Top Online Colleges on Twitter - Follow Online Colleges and Practical Advice for Teaching with Twitter. Some writers offer the equivalent of courses, for example, many writers have written thousands of online articles on one subject and have tweeted the location and title of each article.
One example, might be my more than 2,200 tweets, each one about a topic in a specific category such as nutrition, media & culture, women's issues, or health-related reseach trends and topics to explore. Other writers actually offer seminars, podcasts, or classes online by tweeting the website links to the article, blog, video, or podcast as part of the course. It's a great way to combine social media with teaching, especially for freelance teachers of various subjects.
And Twitter also is about links to learning about subjects or topics you always wanted to understand more clearly or find information and links to further research. Perhaps tweets can lead to more free education, like a global public library. Some software can even translate languages so you can learn more about what informs you. Of course, the other side of the coin is learning through entertainment such as anthropology or history through fiction or factual information through interactive links.

Evelyn Lauder: the creator of breast cancer’s pink ribbon passes away
The pink ribbon campaign for breast cancer has helped women by reminding them to get their breast examination done regularly so that chances of death by cancer can be reduced. If breast cancer is detected in its early stages, then it can be controlled but for that it is necessary that women get their physical breast examination done regularly.
Evelyn Lauder was a long standing executive at cosmetics giant Estee Lauder Cos., which is a company known for their top-of-the-line cosmetics. Estee Lauder was founded by Evelyn’s mother-in-law and she started working there when the company was still in its infant stages.
In 1992, Evelyn Lauder worked with her friend Alexandra Penney, who was the former editor-in-chief of Self magazine and both of them created the pink ribbon campaign for breast cancer awareness. The intention behind the movement was just to remind people with the help of this small pink ribbon, to get their breast examination done. The financing of these ribbons was done by Evelyn and her husband Leonard Lauder, and both of them used to give out free pink ribbons to women who used to shop at their stores.
The small-time effort grew out into a full-scale campaign in which there were fundraising products, $330 million in donations and the designation of October as the Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Out of the donation amount of $330 million, $50 million were donated by Estee Lauder. Evelyn Lauder also started the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and later Evelyn H. Lauder Breast Center at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City was started in 2009 with the help of the donation money.
Initially when the pink ribbon campaign for breast cancer awareness started, very few people knew about it. Some even confused it with the campaign for AIDS awareness but later the pink ribbon campaign became so famous that everyone got to know about its meaning and purpose. The funeral services of Evelyn Lauder will be held later with friends and family present at the services.
Is Spanking A Child Abuse Or Discipline?
As you would imagine, there are individuals (child psychologists) on both ends of the spectrum. Some same a swat on the bottom of a child is in order, for it reaffirms the verbal message of punishment. While others would say under no circumstance should a parent hit a child, as it only causes the child to become aggressive. Not only that, some behavioral experts say spanking a child only has a short term message of discipline, and the long term message to the child is don’t get caught. Naturally, both sides have statistics to prove their point.
Look at today’s youths. Some are completely unruly. Is it a result of parents not “sparing the rod?” Every where you turn a youth is acting out in school or some other social setting. The language youths use today is worse than sailors (who are supposedly known for their foul mouths). As for manners, forget about it. They don’t exist. Can all this be blamed on generational differences of punishment, or does the problem lie with the youths not being spanked as a child or spanked as a child? (We could dump it all at the foot of pop culture which is a whole different story.)
I am not sure who’s right or who’s wrong.
While growing up, I got my fair share of “spankings” and “whuppings.” I would like to say they made me a better person. Though some might argue, I knew nothing else, so it is natural for me to come to that conclusion. My parents would say to those individuals that they “spared the rod” so that the law enforcement wouldn’t have to. Whatever that means?
I have friends who received the same form of discipline as I did growing up. As adults, however, they decided to take a different approach in punishing their children. The results were mixed. Some said avoiding a spanking worked. A few others said they had to introduce a spanking or two to accompany the timeout process to reaffirm their message of punishment.
Clearly, this is a debate that will go on for sometime. That being said, I do believe there is a difference between spanking a child and beating a child. Unfortunately, the problem is some parents can’t tell the difference and go too far with their spankings which lead to abuse.
