Steven Paul Jobs (born February 24, 1955) is the co-founder, Chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc and former CEO of Pixar Animation Studios.

In the late '70s, Jobs, with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, made the easy and affordable (compared to other computers of the time) personal computer become reality, years before the advent of IBM PC. In the early '80s, still at Apple, Jobs was among the first to see the commercial potential of the mouse-driven GUI (Graphical User Interface). After losing a power struggle with the board of directors in 1985, Jobs resigned from Apple and founded NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in the higher education and business markets. NeXT's subsequent 1997 buyout by Apple Inc. brought Jobs back to the company he co-founded, and he has served as its CEO since then. Steve Jobs was listed as Fortune Magazine's Most Powerful Businessman of 2007.

In 1986, he acquired the computer graphics division of Lucasfilm Ltd which was spun off as Pixar Animation Studios. He remained CEO and majority shareholder until its acquisition by the Walt Disney Company in 2006. Jobs is currently the Walt Disney Company's largest individual shareholder and a member of its Board of Directors. He is considered a leading figure in both the computer and entertainment industries.

Jobs's history in business has contributed greatly to the myths of the quirky, individualistic Silicon Valley entrepreneur, emphasizing the importance of design while understanding the crucial role aesthetics play in public appeal. His work driving forward the development of products that are both functional and elegant has earned him a devoted following.

Ghost Who Walks replied: "There is good scope in marine fisheries and as research fellow in popular marine institutes. But when compared to engineering, management and medical professions, you get only a few chances for job haunting. So you have to go for higher studies including doctorate."

samlclem28 asked: "I'm considering adopting a Belgian Malinous. My research indicates that need a job to do - standardly they are used in police work, drug detection, etc. Research also says that if they don't have a job to do they may release that energy in non-home-friendly ways. I work from home - I'll walk him - what other jobs can I give him?"

Jessica C replied: "Play hide and seek with him. Have someone hide and then let him go find them. Also take him on lots of walks. I'm not sure when you can start it but that make those cool dog backpacks where they can carry things when they are on their walks. Makes them feel like the are doing something important. Hide little bits of cheese around the house and let them sniff them out. Just some ideas."

lizzy replied: "These guys are great to do agility with, or teach him a lot of tricks and run through them daily. They're very smart and typically learn quickly. Get him lots of toys, things that hold treats and have to be manipulated in just the right way to get the treat out. The Kong company makes lots of different toys like that. Teach him to fetch you a Coke from the fridge, be creative : ) The important thing is to keep his brain occupied."

Randee replied: "Ahh the joys of owning a work dog. :) My aussie is currently learning how to help me pick up the house. She picks stuff up off the floor and puts it in the clothes hamper. :) it's wonderful!We also have a huge selection of toys (including Kongs...invest in one of these, they're wonderful!). Another thing to look into could be therapy. Some dogs are great for this, some aren't. It takes a lot of hard work and training to get to that point, but it seems to be worth it.I've also seen people look into using work dogs as volunteer rescue dogs, not sure about the details on that but it's an idea."

berner mom replied: "They are wonderful at Obedience, Rally and Agility. Take a couple of training classes at a local dog training club...LOTS of fun"

Jennifer G replied: "When I brought my boxer home, I realized that an hour or two of walking a day was not going to cut it (they are also high-energy, working dogs).I started by walking him while riding my bicycle. Once we established some commands (mainly "stop"!) we were able to go rather fast, so he could run off some energy. Later, when his bones were larger and more mature, I rigged up a harness so with leads so he could pull a sled behind him. It took a while to get him used to pulling something, but really it just took some patience. Now we have so much fun! He loves pulling things, and it really helps him work off some of that energy (he also has bulging muscles!). I never give him a great deal of weight to pull, but in the winter my daughter and the neighborhood kids can (and do) ride in the sleigh behind him while he pulls them. It is such a sight, and it really makes my boy feel important, too.You should also consider getting him toys that will keep him occupied while you are not home to keep him from turning to destructive behaviors out of bordom. Kong toys are great, you can stuff them with the kong paste (or better yet, peanut butter) and the dog will spend hours trying to get lick it all out. There are a lot of other toys where you can put kibble in and the dogs turn them so the treats fall out randomly, and bottles where the dogs have to pull ropes out to get treats, etc. Dr. Foster and Smith has a good collection. Good luck! I think that you are doing an excellent job researching the breed before adopting, so things should work out well for you when you do."

Forsaken replied: "That's a very good question. The jobs my dogs have are:Watching the kittens (5 of them causing mayhem) and alerting me to dangerous activities by said kittens.Letting me know if the kids I sit are getting into trouble esp. outside.Carrying groceries in for meHelping me with laundry (my male has enjoyed this since he was a wee pup)Helping me with the trash (my female enjoys this)General yard workand we are working on:Helping me dig the flower bed/gardenGetting stuff from the fridge"

Louise C replied: "In the early 19th century, the jobs most readily available to women were domestic work and factory work. However, during the first half of the ninenteenth century, teaching became a respectable job for middle-class women. During the second half of the 19th century, women began to make breakthroughs into other kinds of work. In 1850, Elizabeth Blackwell became the first woman to qualify as a physician in the USA (though there had apparently been women doctors in America in the 17th century). The number of women doctors grew during the late 19th and early 20th century, in 1910 there were more women practicing medicine than there would be again until the 1980s. Nursing became a respectable job for women in the mid-nineteenth century.During the Civil War, many women in both the north and the south filled clerical jobs that men had left in order to go to war. After the war, women continued to be employed in offices. The introduction of the typewriter in the 1880s led to more office jobs for women, since women's hands were considered to be better suited to typing than men's, being smaller and more nimble. By 1880, 40 percent of the stenographrs and typists were women, and by 1900, it was three-quarters. The federal beauracracy found more jobs for women as it grew, by 1900 women occupied a third of all government jobs. The infant telephone industry decided that women were natural switchboard operators as soon as it discovered that men tended to talk back to the customers. Women also made inroads into library work.Thanks in large part to the new department stores, 142,000 female sales clerks were hired before the end of the century. Department store saleswomen worked long hours and were sometimes required to go on unpaid leave during slow seasons. The work was hard but not necessarily grim. an in-house newspaper written by the workers at the Seigel-Cooper department store was crammed with stories about who was dating whom and comments on other workers' hairstyles and clothing, dancing ability, and general popularity. The men in the mail-order department accused the members of the Bachelor girls social club of being "man haters" a charge the Bachelor Girls denied. "No, we are not married, neither are we man haters, but we believe in woman's rights, and we enjoy our independence and freedom notwithstanding the fact that if a fair offer came our way we might.....consider it."Some women worked as journalists, like the famous Nellie Bly, who in the 1890 took up the challenge to travel around the world in 80 days, like Jules Verne's fictional hero Phileas Fogg. She made it in 78 days."

CHIEF has been a hard job to fill these days at police departments across Mexico, since the federal government declared war on drug cartels.
