We all have good intentions and will do
everything to ensure everyone around us is happy but do we sometimes
take time to ensure we are happy as well? Sometimes we may not take the
time to review our life and make sure that we are the best person we can
be.
Albert Einstein once said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep
your balance you must keep moving.” This applies to every facet of our
lives but we must make sure that nothing is holding us back. Here are 28
inspirational ideas to start with:
"Hey," hissed Twitter. "The Second Amendment is trending."
"Oh no. Not again," I muttered.
I'm
sure you're familiar with this amendment. It's the one that ensures
that well-regulated militias have the right to bear arms.
But we're all militias of one these days, aren't we? Or at least a lot of people seem to think they are.
So when Donald Trump offered his thoughts on the Second Amendment at an event in North Carolina on Tuesday, Twitter was excited, aghast, delighted and appalled.
The Republican candidate said that Hillary Clinton wants to "essentially abolish" this amendment.
"If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks," he said. It's true. Democracy can be annoying that way.
However, Trump added: "Although the Second Amendment people...maybe there is, I don't know."
Ah, that tantalizing Trumpist tendency toward nuance.
You're likely familiar with it by now.
He tells you
that he's heard many people say something and this must mean that many
people really have said that thing, rather than just, say, being a
helium-filled tease.
The tweets immediately poured in.
US Rep. Kathleen Rice mused:
"What would Secret Service do if a citizen suggested that '2nd
Amendment people' *do something* to stop a presidential nominee?"
For
many, you see, it seemed as if Trump was inciting one of his slightly
less level-headed supporters to assassinate his opponent.
Some, though, insisted that Trump has right, as well as might, on his side.
Talk show host Bill Mitchell helpfully explained:
"The 2nd Amendment wasn't written so people could hunt. It was written
so people could protect themselves from tyrannical government. #fact."
I'm not entirely sure it covers the hunting down of someone whose political views you happen not to like.
The Trump campaign didn't immediately respond to a request for elucidation. CNN, however, reported that his campaign insisted that this was just a rallying cry.
"It's
called the power of unification -- 2nd Amendment people have amazing
spirit and are tremendously unified, which gives them great political
power," said a campaign spokesman.
Thousands
of refugees in northern France rely on internet access and mobile tech
for human contact. But that doesn't help much when they're trying to
smuggle themselves onto a truck to the UK.
PS4 Neo expected as Sony makes September 7 PlayStation event official
Sony has officially invited journalists to a press conference in New
York City on September 7, where an upgraded PlayStation 4 is almost
certain to be the big reveal.
The emailed invitations come one day after reports hit the web
that the gaming giant was locking in to the first Wednesday in
September as the date for its next big announcement. And while the
invitation simply says "PlayStation Meeting," it's hard to imagine that
the company would be showcasing anything else in such a high-profile
venue.
Andrew House, the president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, had confirmed that an updated version of the PS4 was on the drawing board in a pre-E3 interview with the Financial Times in June. While the console wasn't shown or mentioned at the annual gaming confab, the story
confirmed the "Neo" code name, the fact that the new console would
offer enhanced Ultra HD 4K graphics, and that it would "sit alongside
and complement the standard PS4."
A 1975 meeting in a Silicon Valley garage inspired the young, shy Steve Wozniak to build the Apple I -- and an icon.
A lot's happened in 40 years.
Back
in 1976, co-founder Steve Wozniak built Apple's first-ever computer,
the Apple I, after showing it off to a ragtag group of geeky misfits.
Fast forward to 2016: Apple sold its billionth iPhone. That's an enormous achievement for a company that's become both status symbol and everyday icon.
In the four decades since the Apple I, co-founder Steve Job has passed away, Wozniak has moved on to other pursuits, and Apple bumps along with the ups and downs of the consumer tech space it helped to so solidly forge.
And to think, all that grew from the seed of this first "Eureka" moment.
