Interesting to learn to about Processing software. (it is a software that can be used to produce Visual Arts).

New Product from Oracle

Oracle® has finally entered the food world! After drinking Gatorade and other energy drinks for years, Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle®, got this idea while racing for the America cup, in the Mediterranean. Viola! Oracle ® Organic drink. Studies were conducted on two groups, one which drank 3 bottles of Oracle ® Juice and the other drank plain apple/orange/lime juice. Those who drank 3 bottles a day of Oracle ® juice, learnt Oracle ® products at least 2 times faster. The savings in terms of spending on learning at Oracle ® University, software, and books is estimated to be, 52.75%. Learn Oracle®! Drink Oracle ®! Earn more!

This is a spoof on Oracle. Link to original article I read is here. I have no knowledge whether this is an Oracle product or not.None of statistics presented are true. I have written this article with tonge-firmly-in-the-cheek.

Oracle wins America Cup

And Oracle wins America's Cup Again (Second year in a row). Congrats, guys, keep it up!

The Challenge is all the more difficult, since the winning team sets the rules for the next cup, making it all the more difficult for challenger teams to take it away.
