Geothermal Field

Earlier, we had a lecture about Geothermal energy by Mr. John Traller. He told us about Geothermal Energy and its benefits. At first, it was a little bit confusing of why he is promoting the Geothermal Energy to us high school students. Later, my knowledge expounded about Geothermal Energy after he explained the reason of promoting it.
He showed us how the mechanics works in the Geothermal Field. He said, "We can have power generated from Geothermal Steam.”. As I have in my mind, I thought he was going to tell us a topic regarding about Tech. Voc. Schools.
I really can't relate at the first place, but afterwards, I learned that Geothermal Energy is a growing source of energy.
It was a great honor having Mr. John Traller here in our school. Eventhough his english was a lil' bit nose bleeding, still it was a great pleasure for us sharing his knowledge. :))
Hope he'll come back soon ^_^

I was so happy after I got a souvenir from him.

Things you don't know About Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs was born in San Francisco, February 24, 1955 and was adopted and raised near Mountain View, California by Clara and Paul Jobs. His adoptive father was a machinist for a laser company and mother was an accountant. Jobs discovered his biological parents identities late in life. His birth mother, Joanne Simpson, was a speech pathologist and his birth father Abdulfattah John Jandli, a Syrian Muslim who left the country at an early age and reportedly is now the vice president of Reno, Nevada Casino. Jobs reconnected with Simpson later on but he and his birth father remained estranged.
Many Media in the world reports that even-though he was the master mind behind the most successful company in the world, he never graduated from college, he never even got close. After he graduated high school in Cupertino, California, Jobs enrolled in Reed College in 1972 where he stayed for only one semester.
Well known for his skills and knowledge in personal computing, mobile tech and software, he also helped create one of the greatest games in 1975 by helping Atari with the Pong-like game Breakout.
