The Legacy of Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs recently left us, falling victim to Cancer after battling this horrid disease for several years!

 

Even though he passed away at the relative young age of 56, he had radically changed the world we lived in.  The Apple computer, the Ipod, the Ipad and the Iphone; just a few among the over 200 products he developed.

 

He created a special company devoted to creating movies for children called Pixer and spun out many classic stories, the first being Toy Story.  Today, Pixer is the largest animated film studio in the world.

 

Below is a video of Steve Jobs addressing a graduating class at Stanford University.  Intensely private, Steve Jobs almost never talked about himself, however, during this commencement address he talked about his own life and offered great advice to the graduates.

 

It gives you insight into the man, his passion and his life.

 

 


 

We will miss you Mr. Jobs!



Thank you for your vision of the world!

Mimimizing Rape: Who is Responsible!

By Gayle Crabtree Could someone please tell me what an alleged reporter was thinking when he wrote the piece called Vicious Assault Shakes Texas Town . In this article, the NY Times reporter James C. McKinley, JR writes about how the rape of an 11 year old is reverberating through a town. What he doesn’t write about is how the rape is reverberating through the child’s life and the life of her family. Beginning with the title, the article takes the fast track downhill. You bet the town is shaken. It should be. The reported gang rape of an 11 year old should shake any town to the core! Rape should never be condoned. Further, there is no excuse for an article to even suggest that a child (or adult) is to blame. The problem is that the tone of this article seems to side with the alleged perpetrators. (I say alleged because everyone is innocent until proven guilty under the law.) I’d like to know who told the reporter that it’s ok to quote comments about the way a child dresses. In the ar...

How To Talk To Kids About Leiby Kletzky

10 Tips Parents Need to Know By Dr. Robyn Silverman A horrific story about a 8 year old boy, Leiby Kletzky, gone missing, murdered and dismembered in Brooklyn this week, has parents wondering how to talk to their children about this tragedy. As a parent myself, all I wanted to do was shut my eyes, close my doors, and hold my children tight. It is every parent’s nightmare—not just because of the loss itself—not just because of the gruesome way this young boy died—but because of the senselessness of the murder. What was the motive? Why this boy? Or perhaps more accurately, could it have just as easily been mine? As a mother I find it so hard to write this article. My stomach flips and my teeth chatter just like yours. We want to raise happy, healthy, confident children—not ones that hide from the world and fear those within it. At the same time, these kinds of sickening stories make us want to yell; “stay home with me and never venture out alone!” Logically, we know ...

Cyber Bullying Tips For Parents

The below tips are designed to help today's parents get more involved in their children's "CYBER" life. Know who, what, where and when your children are on the computer and be assertive in understanding the culture of the internet. Learn. Unannounced, sit down with your children and say, "Teach me something." Gauge their reaction. Go through your computer's web history every other day. Establish consequences for your children if they clear the history so that you can't see what they have been searching. Read their text messages/e-mails. You will likely receive resistance from this, but Driscoll says that this is where you need to be less of a buddy and more of a parent. Remind your kids about stranger danger; they don't need to accept every friend request they get on their social networking sites. Know any and all of your kids' usernames and passwords. Follow your kids' posts (Facebook) /tweets (Twitter). Keep the computer in a com...
