Hang on. Sorry. That was the lede to the Macalope's 7th-grade paper on Europe. Let's just skip that. Because you know what Europe is. You might have even been there. You might be there now. One thing is for certain, European governments enjoy telling Apple what to do. That's not necessarily a bad thing. The Macalope would certainly like to tell Apple what to do from time to time. (Note to self: move to Europe, start grass grassroots movement demanding the return of the iPhone mini.) Take the Netherlands.

SINGAPORE  – Oil prices dipped for a second session on Monday after Libya resumed production over the weekend while China, the world's largest crude importer, is expected to release economic data showing that its post-pandemic recovery is fizzling out. Brent crude futures fell 57 cents, or 0.7 percent, to $79.30 a barrel by 0055 GMT while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was at $74.90 a barrel, down 52 cents, or 0.7 percent. Prices softened after both benchmarks last week notched a third straight week of gains and touched their highest levels since April when output was shut at oilfields in Libya and Shell halted exports of a Nigerian crude, tightening supply.

CAIRO — A project to expand roads and bridges to ease congestion in Cairo has put thousands of tombs in a vast and ancient Islamic cemetery under threat, causing outcry among conservationists and family members. Known as the City of the Dead, the cemeteries along the eastern edge of Historic Cairo have been a resting place for Egypt's deceased since the arrival of Islam in the seventh century A.D. The UNESCO World Heritage site extends for 10 square kilometers (3.9 square miles) and many of Cairo's most prominent families maintain a deep bond with the cemeteries, where they continue to bury their dead.

When I grow up … Do you remember how old you were when this question was first asked about what you wanted to become? I was 5 years old when I said I wanted to be a doctor and never wavered. As to the why? I didn't have it then but found the answer in my teens. It was pretty straightforward. Being a physician enables one to do a good turn daily just by doing what one has sworn to do. For those contemplating choosing a path in the health profession, I hope this piece will contribute even just a little to the decision you will eventually make.
