doleful!! Apple CEO Tim Cook said he Is "Proud To Be Gay"... check the real gist out
Tim Cook: Throughout my professional life, I’ve tried to maintain
a basic level of privacy. I come from humble roots, and I don’t seek to
draw attention to myself. Apple is already one of the most closely
watched companies in the world, and I like keeping the focus on our
products and the incredible things our customers achieve with them.At the same time, I believe deeply in the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, who said: “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’ ” I often challenge myself with that question, and I’ve come to realize that my desire for personal privacy has been holding me back from doing something more important. That’s what has led me to today.
For years, I’ve been open with many people about my intimate orientation. Plenty of colleagues at Apple know I’m gay, and it doesn’t seem to make a difference in the way they treat me. Of course, I’ve had the good fortune to work at a company that loves creativity and innovation and knows it can only flourish when you embrace people’s differences. Not everyone is so lucky.
While I have never denied my sexuality, I haven’t publicly acknowledged it either, until now. So let me be clear: I’m proud to be gay, and I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me.
Being gay has given me a deeper understanding of what it means to be in the minority and provided a window into the challenges that people in other minority groups deal with every day. It’s made me more empathetic, which has led to a richer life. It’s been tough and uncomfortable at times, but it has given me the confidence to be myself, to follow my own path, and to rise above adversity and bigotry. It’s also given me the skin of a rhinoceros, which comes in handy when you’re the CEO of Apple.
The world has changed so much since I was a kid. America is moving toward marriage equality, and the public figures who have bravely come out have helped change perceptions and made our culture more tolerant. Still, there are laws on the books in a majority of states that allow employers to fire people based solely on their intimate orientation. There are many places where landlords can evict tenants for being gay, or where we can be barred from visiting sick partners and sharing in their legacies. Countless people, particularly kids, face fear and abuse every day because of their intimate orientation.
I don’t consider myself an activist, but I realize how much I’ve benefited from the sacrifice of others. So if hearing that the CEO of Apple is gay can help someone struggling to come to terms with who he or she is, or bring comfort to anyone who feels alone, or inspire people to insist on their equality, then it’s worth the trade-off with my own privacy.
I’ll admit that this wasn’t an easy choice. Privacy remains important to me, and I’d like to hold on to a small amount of it. I’ve made Apple my life’s work, and I will continue to spend virtually all of my waking time focused on being the best CEO I can be. That’s what our employees deserve—and our customers, developers, shareholders, and supplier partners deserve it, too. Part of social progress is understanding that a person is not defined only by one’s sexuality, race, or gender. I’m an engineer, an uncle, a nature lover, a fitness nut, a son of the South, a sports fanatic, and many other things. I hope that people will respect my desire to focus on the things I’m best suited for and the work that brings me joy.
The company I am so fortunate to lead has long advocated for human rights and equality for all. We’ve taken a strong stand in support of a workplace equality bill before Congress, just as we stood for marriage equality in our home state of California. And we spoke up in Arizona when that state’s legislature passed a discriminatory bill targeting the gay community. We’ll continue to fight for our values, and I believe that any CEO of this incredible company, regardless of race, gender, or intimate orientation, would do the same. And I will personally continue to advocate for equality for all people until my toes point up.
When I arrive in my office each morning, I’m greeted by framed photos of Dr. King and Robert F. Kennedy. I don’t pretend that writing this puts me in their league. All it does is allow me to look at those pictures and know that I’m doing my part, however small, to help others. We pave the sunlit path toward justice together, brick by brick. This is my brick.

lugubrious!!! Mass Failure In Nigerian Law School
The Nigerian Law School recently released the 2013/2014 August result, and about 4,000 students were said to have failed the examination which is a prerequisite for them to be called to Bar.
The students who paid over N300, 000 for the one year programme are angry and frustrated, blaming the their failure on the Director General of Nigerian Law School, Olarenwaju Adesola Onadeko, PM News reports.
They claimed that Onadeko wants to destroy their career by failing them en masse and they have called for a review of the examination as well as their results.
In their reaction, some of the students said: “Save Law School Students: The DG Olarenwaju Onadeko has come to destroy the future of over 70 per cent of students who wrote exams in August and has run to the United Kingdom to seek solace.
“#Please save the future of 5000 law school student, so that the results may be reviewed because some lecturers are in support of this movement as they know the DG asked for a lot of scripts to be marked down. Please this is the least you can do.
“The mass failure at the Nigerian Law School is an insult to the legal system. Kindly help address this issue by calling the attention of authorities that matters; while another simply read: “#Please save the future of 5000 law school students”.
“We the law students of Nigerian Law School protest the poor handling and marking of our Bar 2 final exam. Please we need the media to come to our aid,” an email read.
“The Nigerian Law School released the 2013/2014 August result. It was a Tsunami! Out of 6000 candidates who registered, about #2172 passed. We are talking of about #4000 students who failed”.

Woman Sets Home On Fire Trying To Kill Spider With Lighter
Don’t get caught in a web of bad decisions. A woman in Hutchinson, Kansas, is charged with arson after police say she set her home on fire during an attempt to kill a spider, the Hutchinson News reports. Ginny M. Griffith, 34, told officers she used a cigarette lighter to set some towels on fire around 1:30 a.m., Friday. She was hoping to catch the little arachnid with the flaming towels and burn it to death, according to WTSP. It’s unclear if she ever caught the spider, but the fire that resulted did necessitate intervention from the fire department. Five units were summoned and managed to control the fire, which they said had multiple points of origin, within a matter of minutes. Griffith’s aggravated arson charge stems from the fact that the other half of the duplex was occupied when the blaze began. No one, besides potentially the spider, was injured in the fire and the building only suffered light smoke damage.

10 Amazing Life Lessons You Can Learn From Children
What do children know that adults seem to have forgotten? Children are more
confident, more courageous and enjoy life far more intensely than
adults. Sometimes it feels that we spend our entire lives trying to
return to who we were as children. Here's what we can learn from our
younger selves to bring more clarity and joy into adulthood.
1. Every day is a fresh start.
Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it
yet?
Wasn't it always amazing how the end of a school day always felt so
final, so finished? The break between June and September seemed like a
lifetime. Because when you are young, every day feels like an eternity
and a new day means new opportunities to make new friends, explore new
adventures, learn new things. Children don't carry baggage from one day
to the next. They start fresh, always.
2. Creative pursuits are fun and good for you.
Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative
effort.
How often do you see children losing themselves in a creative project
for hours at a time? Drawing, playing with clay, building a sandcastle
with meticulous attention to detail. For some reason, as we get older,
we stop seeing creative activities as worthwhile. How many adults, aside
from artists, draw on a regular basis? How many play with clay or
finger paint just for the fun of it?
3. Be courageous.
"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage." - Anais Nin.
Sing out loud. Dance when you feel like it. A child's life feels
limitless because they are not confined by fears of failure or
humiliation. They march forward with hope and determination because they
don't know any better. They haven't been beaten down, they haven't
experienced failure. They embrace life and all it has to offer with open
arms.
4. Laugh every day.
"A day without laughter is a day wasted." - Charlie Chaplin
Children have the beautiful ability to find joy all around them. Just
watch the humor a child can find in a shopping mall or at the park. They
see silliness everywhere.
5. Be active.
"Play energizes and enlivens us. It eases our burdens. It renews our
natural sense of optimism and opens us up to new possibilities." -
Stuart Brown
When you were young, playing outside was the highlight of your day. You
would run and chase your friends until you were out of breath and your
cheeks were rosy. You would jump and do cartwheels at the drop of a hat
and you never thought of it as "exercise" or "daily fitness." It was
just playing. And it was fun. "It is a happy talent to know how to
play." Ralph Waldo Emerson
6. Nurture friendship.
"In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing
pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning
and is refreshed." - Khalil Gibran
Children find true joy while playing with friends and they love making
new ones. They join soccer teams, go to a birthday parties, start new
schools. These are all ways that kids make new friends. Children adhere
to the motto, "the more the merrier," and adults should, as well.
7. Be the hero.
"Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim." - Nora Ephron
When a child tells you a story about school or the soccer field, they
are usually the hero of their story. The world revolves around them. As
we age, we don't want to be conceited or egotistic, so we downplay our
accomplishments and achievements. We don't want to brag. But in doing
so, we often slip to the side of self-deprecation. We put ourselves down
to make others feel better or to be more relatable. Modesty becomes an
admirable quality and we start to convince ourselves of our own
mediocrity.
8. Scars are badges of honor.
"Every day you either see a scar or courage. Where you dwell will define
your struggle." - Dodinsky
When a child breaks a bone, everyone they know will sign the cast. They
become the superstar of the class, the survivor. If they fall down and
cut themselves, everyone wants to see the scar, they wear it proudly. As
we get older, we hide our scars, our wounds become our secrets. We
don't want to be seen as weak or pitied, so we tell no one where it
hurts. But what children recognize is that scars aren't signs of
weakness, a scar is a sign of strength and survival. A story to tell. An
accomplishment.
9. Try new things.
"Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight
of the shore." - Andre Gide
Children are not afraid to play a sport they have never tried before.
They will jump on a trampoline, dive into a pool or ski down a mountain
even if it is foreign to them. As adults, we fear the unknown. We stay
safely ensconced in our comfort zone and rarely venture out. Adventure
exhilarates us and awakens the spirit.
10. Notice the little things.
"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they
were the big things." - Robert Brault
Something simple that we take for granted brings her..

So Weird: Meet The Girl With The Longest Tongue In The World (Photos)
Chanel Tapper, a student from California, USA, has the world's longest tongue, measuring 9.75 cm (3.8 in), from tip to top lip.
Her lizard-like tongue is twice as long as the average, as long as the world's largest cockroach, as wide as your palm, the same volume as a quarter pounder hamburger and around the same length as an iPhone!!
Here what she told Guinness World Records about her record-breaking body part in an interview.
- When did you first realise that your tongue was longer than average? What happened?
I was eight and my mom and I were taking pictures for Halloween.
In one of the pictures we stuck our tongues out. I noticed I had a long tongue when the pictures from Halloween were printed and I saw it...but I guess it became apparent in middle school when people started commenting on it.Why I stuck my tongue out at people, I don't know... I'm goofy! But there are still some people from back then that only remember me because of my tongue!
- What reaction do you get from people when they see it?
For most people it's a jaw-dropping experience. It's like they don't believe what they see and nie out of ten times, they'll ask me to do it again.
Some girls/women have screamed/jumped back. If there are other people around, the person who saw my tongue will tell the nearest next to them.
I'll often get asked questions like, "can you touch your nose or elbow?" and, "do you choke people when you kiss them?"
But always, everyone in one way or another is entertained by seeing it.
- Despite the excitement of having achieved a Guinness World Record, if you had the choice would you keep your long tongue or choose to have a 'normal' one?
This is my normal tongue. I was born like this, so no choice would be necessary.
- Are there any explanations for your long tongue such as other members of your family having the same trait or was it just by chance?
My mom has a long tongue, but not like my length. I believe I was born without something underneath that prevents it from extending far.
- Does it affect your relationships in any way? Do you currently have a boyfriend and if so, what does he think?
It does. Most guys that know or already see it automatically have their mind in the gutter, and so do some females. I don't have a boyfriend, but the last guy I dated didn't make it that big of a deal, and I really liked him for that.
