At the time the Soviet Union was pumping resources into the fight to take on the United States, while the people of Korea fought along with the two major countries. For the last sixty years, the mainstream press has kept pounding home the idea that North Korea is a threat. And for the last sixty years, Russia has not funded the country due to a lack of return on investment it would bring them. In 2015, the US will

The first day to the Facebook F8 Conference was held today. Overall I felt it lacked focus at demoing new products to get people excited about upcoming developments within the company.
