Think Different

I love Apple's latest ad! It shows how they're so in tune with more people and more markets than just the hip young iPod crowd.

(Yeah right!) This picture is actually from FinalCall.com in an article about Farrakhan taking a fact-finding tour through Cuba (March 19-27). His aim was to learn their government's hurricane preparedness practices, considering how their infrastructure endures repeat hurricanes with very little or sometimes no loss of life. Of course the article goes back and brings up how Cuba offered medical assistance to survivors of Katrina in New Orleans (just like it does for other countries in the Americas), but U.S. officials refused it.

An interesting set of numbers in this article is, "Of the over 12 millions Cubans on the island, 72,000 of them are medical doctors. In comparison, of the over 40 million Black citizens in America, only 30,000 of them are medical doctors." I guess the obvious counter-argument to Cuba's stepping in and assisting would be -- how can a country that America has sworn as its enemy be trusted to practice safely on U.S. citizens? Good point... till we realize that that position is being argued by FEMA.

April fool's.
