The Dark Side of Apple…and Steve Jobs.
This weekend the New York Times ran an article about Apple and its production of I-phones overseas. Bottom Line Up Front? Steve Jobs could also be a real s**t when it came to his fellow countrymen: When Barack Obama joined Silicon Valley’s top luminaries for dinner in California last February, each guest was asked

Dialect: A language without an Army to back it up. It’s that time of year again. Every year around this time the Japan Association of Kanji Aptitude Test announces the kanji of the year. The announcement is made in Kyoto at the famous Kiyomizu-dera temple through a priest who writes
