Former U.S. President Bill Clinton once asked Steve Jobs discourse through midnight phone conversations when tripped Monica Lewinsky sex scandal in 1998. This was revealed in a biography of Apple founder Steve Jobs.


"I do not know if you do it (sex scandal), but if so, you have to admit to your country," said Jobs to Clinton.

It is not yet clear, whether the advice to admit in public scandal were well received because there was a long silence on the line after Jobs gave the answer, according to the biography of Apple founder Steve Jobs wrote Walter Isaacson quoted as saying the British publication, the Telegraph.

Clinton's famous midnight phone calls from the office of president of the Oval Office, because he worked late into the night. But it is highly questionable why Clinton seek advice innovators from Silicon Valley on the issue of political controversy and sensitive personal.

The current U.S. president has consistently avoided questions about his affair with Lewinsky when she (Lewinsky) internship at the White House.

Biography to be published on Monday revealed details of the relationship Jobs and his conversation with some famous people ranging from technology pioneers, businessmen and political leaders.

In his book, he (Jobs) once stunned and speechless when I met with one of his musical heroes Bob Dylan - Incident Jobs can not speak or "tounge-tied" rarely occurs because Jobs always have the words or opinions.

It's certainly different between meetings Jobs with The Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger impression is not good. Jobs said, "The Rolling Stones frontman was being influenced by drugs or brain damaged."

According to Isaacson, Jobs never asked for help directly to U.S. President Bill Clinton but rejected. When deploying the ad campaign "Think Different", Jobs had persuaded Clinton to call Tom Hanks a star to want ads.

In an interview with Time magazine after Jobs's death, the former U.S. president to recall the 42's thanks to Jobs' Chelsea Clinton was a student at Stanford University, in the heart of Silicon Valley, California.

Clinton recalls saying back to Jobs, "It's hard to see the streets of Chelsea, if you are the president. I have a house outside of town, you and Hillary can stay in there, Chelsea could also bring my friends to it whenever you want."

Clinton added, "He gave me the priceless gift, a chance to see my child when I was a key figure. So I am very biased in his kindness. Plus, I can work on the iPad."

Clinton also appreciate the work ethic Jobs, he says: "He is a person who believes and has a high concentration."

But he noted that sometimes the style of leadership Jobs will not be suitable for politicians because "you have to be somewhat more inclusive".

Clinton attended the funeral of Steve Jobs on Sunday last, who died after pancreatic cancer called neuroendocrine tumors undermined his health.

New York - (AFP) - World oil prices continued to weaken on Monday, in line with the strengthening dollar and the stock market decline due to reduced investor enthusiasm for the euro zone debt agreement last week.



New York's main contract, light sweet crude for December delivery, closed at 93.19 dollars a barrel, down 13 cents from Friday's closing level.

In London, Brent North Sea crude for December delivery fell 35 cents to settle at 109.56 dollars per barrel.

The oil market has been "rally" in handling the deal last week after the debt crisis of the euro zone countries to help reduce the problem of continuing concern in Europe could trigger a new global recession, AFP reported.

However, prices closed lower on Friday and extended losses on Monday as dealers grew skeptical that the deal will fully resolve the debt crisis of the euro zone that have been long run.

While European stock markets fell on Monday, led by a decline in banks as investors fretted about the possibility of their losses as a result of the euro zone crisis plan.

"The perception of risk is higher against the backdrop of the weaker equity markets and the strength of the U.S. dollar puts pressure on oil prices," said Commerzbank analyst Carsten Fritsch.

The European single currency slid to 1.3927 dollars on Monday, making crude oil priced in dollars more expensive for buyers using euros and in turn reduce demand for oil.

Traders look forward to meeting France-Germany on Tuesday, where politicians from both parties are expected to discuss further debt rescue plan agreed last week, dealers said.

"This meeting can be a major issue," said commodities analyst at Phillip Futures, Ker Chung Yang, adding that traders also targeting the U.S. Federal Reserve meeting and U.S. jobs report that kedunya will come out this week.

Elsewhere on Monday, Kuwaiti Oil Minister Mohammad al-Baseeri said world crude oil demand is expected to remain high, and will put pressure on global supplies - even after Libya return to the level of production before the riots.

"Libya return (for full production) is still very slow and is expected to take to reach pre-crisis production," said Baseeri told reporters on the sidelines of Kuwait Financial Forum.

Baseeri said that based on OPEC forecast, world market demand is forecast to grow between 1.0 and 1.5 million barrels per day "for the rest of this year and early next year.
