Kuwait to launch new state-run university

Published Date: December 28, 2011

KUWAIT: Minister of Education, Minister of Higher Education and Minister of Justice Ahmed Al-Mulaifi announced on Monday the launching of a new state-run university. "The project is an initial step in the government plan to launch new universities to meet the growing demand, and tap into the huge human resources of the country," he told reporters at the Ministry of Higher Education.

Al-Mulaifi made the remarks ahead of the first meeting of the Executive Board of the new university project, noting that vision and targets of the planned university will be separate from Kuwait University (KU). "The university will not only address the problem of KU's occupancy, but also provide a model for higher educational institutions in the Gulf region in terms of curricula, teaching staff and hi-tech equipment," he revealed.

Listing the tasks of the Executive Board of the new university, Al-Mulaifi said they include outlining regulatory frameworks, a vision, message and objectives of the new institution. The required faculties, specializations, curricula, semesters and the degrees also need to be determined.

The Board is mandated to outsource foreign academics and administrative experts if it deems it necessary for its mission, he added. The Board is made up of Dr Fadhel Al-Musallam, Dr Mohammad Hadi, Dr Bader Al-Bedeiwi, Dr Anwar Al-Fzei'e, Dr Abbas Al-Shemmeri, Dr Esam Al-Rubei'an, Dr Fahima Al-Awadhi, Dr Zahra Ali, Dr Maytham Safar, Dr Mohammad Al-Athma, Dr Adel Ahmad and Dr Mohammad Ahmad. They are all currently KU teaching staff. Mohsen Al-Muallem, advisor to the Minister, is also on the board. -KUNA

Note Describes Steve Jobs As Secretive 'Joker' Who 'Sounds Flakey'

This entry needs translation. To help us and submit a translation please click here

Bloomberg has published a note written by Mike Rose in June 1976 that describes Steve Jobs as a secretive 'joker' who 'sounds flakey'.

At the time Steve Jobs was looking for someone to print the manual for the Apple I. Jobs' friend Regis McKenna, head of Silicon Valley's premier advertising and public relations firm, suggested he contact Mike Rose who ran an advertising agency in Los Altos.

After Rose spoke with Jobs on the phone he left a note for his business partner, warning him that Jobs would likely be in touch.

Here's what it said:

Bob -
This joker (attached) is going to be calling you. Somebody at Regis McKenna reco - mended us (you). They are 2 guys - They build kits - operate out of a garage - want 10m [?] catalog sheets. Wants it for nothing. Wouldn't trust me. Told him we'd like to see what they've got - we'd estimate - Then decide.

Sounds flakey. Watch it!

Mike

Jobs' ended up rejected Rose's bid for being too high and had a typesetter produce the Apple I manual. The note was donated to the Silicon Valley Archives at Stanford in 1998.

Rhapsody president shaves head to mark 1M subscribers milestone

Rhapsody

"Before" and "after" pictures of Rhapsody President Jon Irwin, who vowed to shave his head if the company reached a milestone of 1 million paying subscribers in the U.S.

Rhapsody President Jon Irwin vowed to shave his head if the Seattle digital music company reached a milestone: 1 million paying subscribers in the U.S.

And today, Irwin is sporting a chrome dome.

Rhapsody?

"We've accomplished quite a bit over the past decade, so it's no small statement to say that 2011 was probably our biggest year yet," Irwin said. "I told our team that when we topped one million paid subscribers, I'd shave my head ... it was probably the best free haircut I've ever had."

Rhapsody?s music subscription service lets users stream unlimited music online or download tunes to listen to offline. The company?s library has more than 13 million songs and a subscription costs $10 a month.

In February 2010, Rhapsody was spun off by its parent companies, RealNetworks?
