New Episode of Futurama titled: The Inhuman Torch
Bender becomes a famous firefighter, but the crew suspects him of arson.
Previews:
Shielded from the heat by a protective spray, Fry, Bender and Leela attempt to save a group of helium miners that are trapped inside the sun.
Serving as firefighters, the Planet Express crew puts out fires all over the city, but Bender seems to be getting all of the credit.
I for one don’t take rumors seriously. These two rumors were published on the same day.
Rumor One:
Rumor: Apple cutting iPhone production by 20 percent
From MacNN
Rumor Two:
Reported Foxconn hiring spree could signal ‘iPhone 5S’ mass production
From AppleInsider
UPDATE:
Rumor of Foxconn hiring spurs speculation on next iPhone
From MacNN
So why would Foxconn be hiring lots of workers if Apple was reportedly cutting iPhone orders by 20%?
One explanation:
Apple is cutting order for current iPhone and ramping up production for next iPhone.
Rumors are stupid.
Apple celebrates 5 Years of the App Store, iTunes App Store which launched on July 10, 2008.
I currently have 25 apps installed on a freshly restored iPhone instead of 200+ apps.
The App Store launched about one year after the release of the original iPhone.
In Forty Percent Leadbelly episode, Futurama made mentions of MakerBot, MacBook Air and Apple.
SPOILER ALERT!
The lines of codes in the screenshot below includes:

Close to the end of the episode, Silicon Red mentions MacBook Air in his song as Bender’s funeral is Funded by Apple, Inc.; official designation is “Apple Inc.” (without the comma).
By the way, Happy 4th of July, especially to the ones in The United States.
