Builds a homemade digital clock at age of 14 out of enthusiasm to show his engineering teacher.... then, gets arrested aaand interrogated,,, as they freaked out and thought it's a bomb..
ok ,,,police can be dummies but what an engineering teacher to not know the difference ,,, probably Brown Ahmed Mohammed was already a paranoia induction tool or maybe am exaggerating :D
I believe being caught (out of ignorance or prejudice or just wrong time/place) is the best thing that happened
25th Feb Steve Jobs, Birth 1955 Paco de lucia, Depart 2014
If alive...Steve jobs turns to 60 years young today.. 2 months and 3 days ago Paco de lucia turned 68 years.
Two figures who were born in the right time and right place... who expanded the game of tech and music through dedication, observation, commitment, persistence and teamwork. Paco was surrounded by great guitarists/singers and born in a culture who breathed flamenco @@ Sabicas , Ramon Montoya, Cameron De La Isla, Nino Ricardo..etc. His dad was so poor to pay for his education. He left school by age of 11 and focused on guitar playing to support his family.
Steve hanged out with legend Wozniak... lived his teen witnessing his country flying to the moon...lived the era of hippie America. He was surrounded by local companies called Intel, HP, IBM, NASA , Fairchild semiconductor and Texas Instruments.
In Apple he never wore shoes during business meetings. ...Some of who worked with Steve in Atari, said : Steve had an unpleasant odor...
Yup, I guess humans aren't perfect :D
Paco de lucia was a heavy smoker and hanged out with Camaron De La Isla who abused alcohol and drugs. I can't find funky negative aspects of Paco personality or hobby... he isn't born in a heavy media caliber country like America to have his life documented in details. But, it is guaranteed he would have some imperfections as lots of successful people had. I recall people talking about them as Gods. A person who exaggerates a quality to the extent it sounds impossible, he or she won't try to attain any of it. After all, they are just humans
Paco and Jobs wouldn't have existed without the work of giants before them and around them. They wouldn't have became legends if they wanted to be someone else than themselves. They didn't stop in when they heard "No" ... They didn't stop when they weren'tacknowledged.. ...They didn't stop when they had no investors ... They didn't stop when they had weak revenues.. They didn't stop when their work didn't meet peoples tastes.
Happy birthday Galileo (1564-1642). The man who lit a notable candle in dark Europe which was ruled by religious extremists, who took the bible texts "literally" with no depth. (As evident ,nowadays, in many Islamic societies...affecting journalism, no freedom of belief, spread of pseudoscience/superstitions, no value for research...etc)
He got persecuted (interrogations / banned from teaching / controlled his research / threats / and finally a life prison) for his support of Copernicus heliocentrism (Sun is the center and earth revolves around it). And, his

Tyson commenting on the question" Why adults need science books more then children?"
"Children were born inquisitors of their natural world.
They turn over rocks, jump in puddles, They pour water down your back. They do things that you can look at it as reeking havic in the house.
We can look at it as long series of science experiments. Some of them gone playfully wrong but nonetheless, explorations to the natural world.
What happens is ..over time ..Adults gets it beaten out of them; because that is not a sign of obedience, That is a behavior of disarray. Plus, adults far out number children. So, I think the real problem in the world is Adults. Especially, since they control the world, not the kids."
No one wraps the Universe artistically as much as Astrophysicist Niel Degrasse Tyson. I hope you'll enjoy the video....
Happy Holidays
