Kim Jung-sook, who was an anti-Japan fighter, was the first wife of the late North Korean founder Kim Il-sung and the natural mother of the late leader Kim Jong-il. The Korean characters on the album reads,"Josun (North Korea) Stamp". North Korean state TV footage on Sunday showed Jang Song-thaek, the power behind the communist state's throne, wearing a military uniform with the insignia of a general, another sign of his rising influence after the death of Kim Jong-il.

Kleinrock developed the mathematical theory of packet networks, the technology underpinning the Internet. The first message to pass over the ARPANET was sent from 3420 Boelter Hall using the Interface Message Processor (next to Kleinrock) on October 29, 1969 led by Kleinrock and his team. The ARPANET evolved into the Internet we use today. REUTERS/Fred Prouser (UNITED STATES - Tags: BUSINESS TELECOMS SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY)
