Dangerous Minds

BY JAMIE BARTLETT

A new study finds that an alarming number of young people are too trusting of what they read online. But is there anything we can do about it?

Fears about the corruption of young, innocent minds always accompany new technology. Socrates used to worry that the written word would promote forgetfulness. When the first printed books rolled off Johannes Gutenberg's press, many thought they would overwhelm young minds with too much information.Read more

The icon and genius of the computing world.The man who brought immeasurable changes and affordability to the digital and computing world.He only finished high school, dropped out of college after only one seamester and entered the business world at very young age.

Apple's first commercial.

This is the man who wanted to be a Buddhist monk and ended up being the world's most innovative and respected man in the digital and mass computing world.Came from a lower middle class family of his adoptive parents, Paul and Clara Jobs.Little is known of his biological parents, Joanne Simpson and Abdulfattah Jandali, a political sciences professor from Syria.

His road to success has not been plain sailing.He founded Apple together with co-founder Steve Wozniak.His ingenuity took off with the launching of Apple II and later the Mackintosh.Kicked out of Apple when John Scully took over as CEO.

After being kicked out of Apple, determination and business acumen made him to start NEXT Computers and started Pixer together with Walt Disney that made him very rich.He returned to Apple when Apple bought over NEXT computer.The rest,as they say, is history.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs has died. Apple's homepage at www.apple.com currently shows a solitary photo of Jobs (see above) and simply says, "Steve Jobs 1955-2011."

Apple's board of directors has issued the following statement:

"We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today.

Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve.

His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts."

Jobs has been instrumental in many of Apple's hit products, stretching back to 1976 with the Apple I and all the way to the modern-day iPhone and iPad. He revealed to Apple employees in 2004 that he'd been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and underwent at least one liver transplant in 2009.

Apple has reportedly released a statement saying that Jobs has died of pancreatic cancer.

Adakah Wanita Bertudung Ciri-Ciri Wanita Yang Baik ?

Hantu Laut

I don't usually post this kind of story on my blog.This is just to kill the myth (just like the MythBusters you see on TV) that women wearing tudungs (headscarves) are not holier than thou. They also have human desires and weaknesses.

The head covering is no guarantee of good moral and sanctity. Many are forced to use the headscarves from childhood and as they passed adolescents peers pressure and the environment dictate their way of life.

Many Muslim women in this country were under the misconception that wearing the tudung is enough to cover one's modesty.That's why it is common to see Muslim girls wearing tudungs and dressed in the most alluring attires like body hugging blouses and jeans. Islam asked women to dress modestly not loudly.

I am not a proponent of Islamic dressings but it is in every cultures that women respect their modesty by dressing appropriately when in public.

How a woman dressed is her business as long as it is not obscene.Always dress for the occasion.If you go to the beach for a swim it certainly is not appropriate to use your tudung and baju kurung to swim, you be dragged down by the heavy clothing, particularly, if you are not a good swimmer.

Read the story here.Apparently, happened in a PKR assemblyman's office. For those who can't read Bahasa you can watch the video.

I think the person who put the hidden video is more sick and immoral than the couple in the video.

The next time you check into a hotel with your wife or girl friend check for bugs and hidden cameras, you could become victim of those perverts looking for cheap thrills.
