iPhone 5 - was there ever a hype?

Hypes are just what they are - hypes. Making something slimmer and lighter has become obsolete as a marketing strategy to attract customers, particularly if it fails to bring any sort of 'wow'. And thats what the new iPhone has done. With a taller and slimmer look and the new A6 chip, it hasn't brought anything new to the table. I thought Apple got more publicity in its bickering with Samsung than it will get with iPhone 5.

However, as this article says in its closing comment, the only positive thing to hope for from this release is a little boost in the US economy that Apple products have more or less regularly produced.

Oh, it says something about a cool charger for the phone, called 'Lightening' or something. ehh!

The (not so) secrets of American food industry!

When making money becomes the sole purpose of business, ethics and humanity goes out of the window. Compassion for animals is the last thing people have in mind. The powerful US meat, milk and egg industry  in collusion with government agencies responsible for supervision of this sector are simply showing how low they are willing to stoop to get rich.

Al Jazeera reports on the horrendous animal abuse going on in the name of industry and profit-making in the US.
