Apple's fight against Obscenity

After Apple’s successful mission to fight against piracy through its anti-piracy measures it has now engaged in the task to fight obscenity. Through the anti-piracy process the cracked applications will still work but after 10 runs a message will appear encouraging the owner to purchase the legal copy from the iTunes stores or to exit the application. In order to fight against obscenity Apple has removed around 5000 apps from its App Store which featured “overtly sexual” content. Although Apple has made no specific declarations regarding any changes that have been made to Apple App Store rules, however, several developers have received a message from Apple stating that the company is refining the guidelines under which the Apple App stores operate. So it’s now time to watch whether Apple succeeds in its new undertaking acting as the moral policeman to reform the society against obscenity.

Children Education as a step towards attaining tolerance, respect, and understanding

Children Education programs have been a discussion topic for years. However, research has shown that the mere attainment of book knowledge is not enough for a child. Meg’s Friends International Education and Outreach Program (MFIEO) is an organization dedicated to education but with a larger global purpose. The simple objective of this program is to provide information, training, study materials, and books to those in need. MFIEO is an international education program with the larger goal of imparting good human values, respect for fellow human beings, the planet, and the individual self. The mission of the program is to promote good-will, love, tolerance, understanding, and learning among the teachers and children of the world.
Most children’s education programs focus on the fundamentals of education with outdated modalities of teaching. These antiquated ideas have been changing. But the progress has been slow or non- existent. Meg’s Friends International Education and Outreach Program approaches education differently. With our teaching curriculum and modalities, children become more interested in studies while learning key human values that foster self-development and respect for life. This children’s program delivers education through unique and innovative ways, making learning fun for children. This children’s education program possess an added advantage because the way the curriculum is structured, children learn a variety of subjects in one lesson plan. Such educational programs are especially useful for children who face problems in a particular area of study because it offers the opportunity to work through some of their “problem” areas without pressure.

International literacy - A Global Importance

International literacy is a matter of great concern to the world as because it is an empowered tool to achieve social and human development. Literacy is the only effective means to build an enlightened society in the present fragmented and degenerated world. There should be the provision of liberal access to educational opportunities for all so as to equip them against the challenges of life.
As education these days deals with the all-round development of a person, literacy too is not simply limited to the concept of the ability to read and write. UNESCO considers a person as literate not only if he can read but also understand; write short simple statements relevant to his daily life and at the same time capable of understanding the present scenario of the world. Hence various literacy programs are organized by the different organs of the United Nations or the state authority or by various NGOs and also by several concerned organizations to help the human race move beyond average performance towards exceptional growth.

International Literacy Program wishes to convey is that every child deserves the same educational opportunities as well as the tools for understanding their value and the footprint they will leave on planet Earth.

The PayPal Fiasco

It is a matter of great concern and at the same time quite frustrating that Paypal has stopped transactions taking place between India and the rest of the world. Today India has grown into a great IT hub and possesses a huge client base world-wide, who are mostly depending on Paypal for monetary transactions. This suddenly collapse of the Paypal has led to huge losses incurred by both the buyers and sellers together. The smooth process of delivering services and earning money has suddenly come to a halt which has given rise to a great deal of chaos and confusion in the Indian service providing market. This has not only made a dreadful impact on the lives of millions of employees, but also greatly damaged the client and service provider relationship. There could be several causes behind the sudden non-functioning of Paypal. Thousand of middle level companies mostly web development companies are facing great problems in their day-to-day monetary transactions. Hope Paypal is aware of the whole situation and will readily find a solution to smartly overcome this global crisis.
