In 1976, Steve Jobs, 26 twenty, founded Apple Computers with Wozniak. They first worked in Steve Jobs garage 27 they developed their first Apple computer. To help company grow, Steve felt like 28 a user-friendly operating system into his Apple computer, which proved 29 a great success and started the personal computer revolution. As a young leader, Steve had a strong passion 30 perfection. He was very demanding to his employees, and that led him into a serious crisis later.

 The study, published on March 20 in The Annals of Behavioral Medicine, 32 303 generally healthy men and women, 204 married and 99 single. Each responded to questions about martial quality, social support, and mental health. Scales were used to rate stress and life satisfaction. 

 Then each subject wore a portable blood pressure monitor for 24 hours while performing their normal activities. The groups had little difference in walking blood pressure, but married people 33 in blood pressure during sleep. People whose blood pressure does not dip during sleep are at higher risk for cardiovascular disease, according to Julianne Holt-Lunstad, 34 . 

 The unhappy married had higher daytime and 24-hour blood pressure readings than single people. Marital satisfaction is associated with satisfaction with life, lower stress, less depression, and lower walking blood pressure. 

 “Just being married per se isn’t helpful,” Dr. Holt-Lunstad said, “because you can potentially be worse off in an unhappy marriage. So, 35 .”

 Passage 1 

 The La Brea tarpits, located in Hancock Park in the Los Angeles area, have proven to be an extremely fertile source of Ice Age fossils. Apparently, during the period of the Ice Age, the tarpits were covered by shallow pools of water; when animals came there to drink, they  got caught in the sticky tar and perished. The tar not only trapped the animals, leading to the death, but also served as a remarkably effective preservant, allowing near-perfect skeletons to remain hidden until the present era. 

 In 1906, the remains of a huge prehistoric bear discovered in the tarpits alerted archeologists to the potential treasure lying within the tar. Since then thousands and thousands of well-preserved skeletons have been uncovered, including the skeletons of camels, horses, wolves, tigers, sloths, and dinosaurs.

 It seems the art of survival — or continual positive projection — in the world of pop music these days, depends very much on change. If artists fail to recreate their persona — chameleon-like, over and over again — they risk facing accusations of dullness; that is, they are not fashionable. 

 This phenomenon is especially prevalent in the female ranks. It is not sufficient for an artist to be beautiful and sexy. These characteristics too must be changed often, and remodeled to avoid being bogged down by a stereotype. 

 Two examples of the rock 'n' roll art of move and change are Cher and Madonna, the latter a brilliant illustration of the trend. Her latest disc, 'Something to Remember', showcases her hit ballads and how she has so effectively been able to stay at the top without diminishing credibility in her particular field. (For these purposes, we will forget her unworthy flirtation with sex, that horrible book and her expletive-ridden, cigar-chomping appearance on the David Letterman Show.) 

 This collection demonstrates how she has toned down her dominatrix image at relevant times to give contrast and definition to her career. But it offers more than simply a study in rock fashion history. There is also a solid assortment of quality music.

 Blogs (short for “weblogs”) have grown into one of the Net’s most important types of websites. There are now more than 100 million blogs, published by office workers, singers, businesses, and everyone in between. Blog posts often include links to other blogs, forming strong online communities. Altogether, the internet’s massive collection of blogs is known as the “blogosphere.”

 Besides being free, blogs are easy to maintain – two big reasons for their popularity. Beneath the main banner are entries posted by the blog writer, or blogger. New entries appear at the top so posts are listed in the order that they were written. Plus, blogs usually allow readers to add comments. When the blogger or other readers respond, it can lead to interesting conversations. 

 A blog may be about someone’s daily life, job hobbies, or any other topic. Someone interested in LCD TVs might start a blog about them, posting articles, reviews, and his or her opinions. So blogs are resources which are informative, yet personal. In the internet age, that’s a key combination which attracts readers. 

 The power of blogs to reach a wide audience is well known. Many celebrities use blogs to post news, making traditional press releases less popular. Reporters track comments on the blogosphere to measure the public’s reaction to events. And politicians use blogs to voice their ideas.

 In the USA, more than 50% of Internet users enjoy reading blogs. That has caught the eye of a lot of businesses. Some companies hire bloggers to write about products. Bloggers can also make money by hosting ads from firms like Amazon. And through programs like Google’s AdSense, ads are placed on a blog based on its keywords. Bloggers can also set up deals with companies. So, for example, a blog about cats may display a pet food company’s banner. 

 With so many money-making opportunities, popular bloggers can earn $1,000 per month or more. Some even make a full-time living from their blogs. The key is to add new content on a regular basis. You want people to know that your site is useful and up to date. That may mean spending several hours a day creating new content. If a blog’s traffic reaches 2,000 daily visitors, it’s a sign that you’re a big hit in the blogosphere.
