PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) -- A flag-draped casket containing the body of Nelson Mandela arrived with a military honor guard Wednesday for display in an amphitheater where he was sworn in 19 years ago as South Africa's first black president.
Army helicopters had been circling overhead but then a sudden quiet fell over the amphitheater as the hearse arrived. Eight warrant officers representing the various services and divisions of the South African National Defense Force carried the casket, led by a military chaplain in a purple stole. The officers set down the coffin and removed the flag.
Motorcycle-riding police officers had escorted the hearse from a military hospital outside of Pretoria to the Union Buildings.
"I just hope I won't cry," said Paul Letageng, 47, an employee there. "It's amazing to think that 19 years ago he was inaugurated there, and now he's lying there. If he was not here we would not have had peace in South Africa."

Before you were born,your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills,cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were.

Rule Number 4: If you think your teacher is touch,
Bill Gates: Wait till you get a boss
Anderson: Students and workers that are with the notion that my teacher is touch does not get things done on time, or if they do, they do it half way.Most Teachers are perfectionist, they want you to do or carry out whatever task you are given even better than what they suggested.Note that those who do well with their teachers naturally ally with the society when they eventually get to work with people. What you need whether you are a student or worker to succeed is to learn how to work with different personalities.
For Students:

• Understand different personalities of your classmates
• Understand different personalities of your subject teachers
• Refrain from being dedicated to one subject or teacher, it could affect your learning and concentration from other teachers and subject you are not dedicated to. 

For Workers:

• Understand different personalities of your work mate

Love him or hate him, he sure hits the nail on the head with this!

Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in School. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.

Rule Number 1: Life is not fair

Bill Gates Answer: Get used to it.

A F. Anderson: Note that life is a two way coin, when you are successful celebrate and work at it, when you fail, ask what you can do to do things differently and try again. Thomas Edison was asked by a group of scientist why he has failed all this while trying to make electric bob? Thomas Edison  answer with a smile he said ``I have never failed once but i have learnt 9,999 times of how not  to do it. On the 10,000 times, Thomas Edison concluded his project.

Today,Chinese bold technology is a bypass of Thomas Edison discovery.

Yes life is not fair if you get used to it, you will become a point of reference.
