Siri

Siri... the female voice of the iPhone... She is able to answer questions profoundly well and is used by just the press of a button. The well-known name has a story and meaning that defines the voice of the iPhone4.

The co-founder and owner of siri.com domain, Dag Kittlaus came up with the name Siri through a Norwegian translation meaning "beautiful woman who leads you to victory." Kittlaus loved the name Siri so much that he was planning on naming his first born Siri. His first born ended up being and boy, so he therefore could not use the feminine name, instead he decided to name his new, innovative product Siri. Siri ended up being bought by Apple and is now a house hold name, and known as a voice of help for all iPhone4 users around the world.

Courthouse Crisis

Ever been to a Courthouse? That building in every major city that looks big and historic. They seem safe and secure with security and police officers constantly patrolling. I have been to the one in Tulsa, there was security everywhere and metal detectors right when you walk in the door. All of that may provide a sense of security and indeed does, however two current events have made the term "Courthouse" a hot topic.

A week ago there was a shooting at the Downtown Tulsa Courthouse. Yesterday, there was a shooting at the Beaumont Courthouse. For two very important structures in both cities, it is alarming to think how a shooting was even able to occur. Those buildings in particular are among some of the "most secured" in those cities, and it is scary to think of what is still able to take place under such circumstances.
