How U.S. Lost Out on iPhone Work →
When Barack Obama joined Silicon Valley’s top luminaries for dinner in California last February, each guest was asked to come with a question for the president.
But as Steven P. Jobs of Apple spoke, President Obama interrupted with an inquiry of his own: what would it take to make iPhones in the United States?

People like to ask me about my new year’s resolution. I used to do this when I was younger. I would fill my list with things like be healthier or be a better daughter. When I look back on this, I realize that this is all way too vague for me. How would I even begin to measure my progress on these goals? This year, no resolution for me.

Final distraction
My camera is in transit from Vernon, CA. It’s expected to be delivered tomorrow later today! I’m so excited! Every time I say this, I think of that Scrubs episode where Zach Braff dates Mandy Moore, and he gets so annoyed with her because instead of laughing, all she says is, “Oh, that is so funny.”
This is will be definite distraction from finals, but I’m not...
