Tribute to Steve Jobs: Best Apple Creations | Remembering the American icon of our technological generation

Image
By following his heart and intuition, Steve Jobs lived a life he'd proudly call his own, and created a legacy for all of us to look upon, with Apple. Even after owning a MacBook (1st generation), an iPod, and now the iPhone 4, I am still not the biggest fan of Steve Jobs, or Apple products for that matter. But you got to give it to him for creating what we would call a technological revolution of our time. Like how he liked to quote Wayne Gretzky,"you don't skate to where the puck is, you skate to where it's going to be." Jobs foresaw something that none of us did, and with relentless intensity and creativity, he created one product after another, that many of us cannot live without. “Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful, that’s what matters to me.” Today, we remember Steve Jobs for not how he passed, but how he lived, and changed almost all our lives.

Although La Roja’s defeat by England and draw with Costa Rica lost them points, their place on the global ladder remains unchanged. Just behind them, an intriguing three-way tussle is under way, with Germany edging dangerously close to the second-placed Netherlands following their 3-0 victory in the match between the two sides. Hot on their heels are Uruguay, who are continuing to make progress following their convincing 4-0 win over Chile in the South American Zone qualifiers for the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ and a friendly defeat of Italy, which brought Cesare Prandelli's team's 13-game unbeaten run to an end. Within the top ten, England (5th, up 2) have climbed up the Ranking, as have Portugal (7th, up 1) and Croatia (8th, up 4) thanks to recent successes in UEFA EURO 2012 qualifying. In the top 50, meanwhile, Czech Republic (33rd, u
