Mark Hurd Resigned After Investigation of his Personal Relation

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 10:38 PM PDT


Mark Hurd the chief Executive officer leaves Hewlett- Packard Co. the reason behind it was he wants to find a successor who can give him more than $20 billion sales growth.

His exit will force a fresh CEO to follow through on a half-finished expansion into new businesses ranging from smartphones to networking gear. Mark Hurd resigned after an investigation found he had a personal relationship with a contractor who received numerous inappropriate payments from the company.

"It's a very different company from what it was when they brought in Hurd," said Rick Sturm, CEO of Enterprise Management Associates, a technology researcher in Boulder, Colorado. "There are very few people in the world who can fill these shoes, but they need somebody who can come in and oversee this diverse organization that's been created."

We have also, of course, learned that Mark Hurd will be getting a $50 million severance payout. This is on top of the $10 billion of market value that HP shareholders have lost so far as a result of his sudden departure.

Hiroshima Pictures The Smoke Rising

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 04:13 PM PDT


The atomic bombs killed several hundred thousand people many instantly in the nuclear fire many later with burns injuries and radiation sickness and still many others over the years with cancers and birth defects.These deaths continue to this day.Like most of the cities bombed in World War II the majority of the inhabitants were women children and the elderly.

The ring of the flames did not initially reach the ground.When the fireball scattered with a flash the city was covered with darkness.The smoke rising from the midst of the ring glittering in colors of red white and yellow reached an altitude of 8,000 meters in only 3 or 4 seconds.

Nearly 70,000 people are believed to have been killed immediately with possibly another 70,000 survivors dying of injuries and radiation exposure by 1950.

The Other Guys Review Its Story Taking Place In New York City

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 02:20 PM PDT


The story loses focus when it gets caught up in unraveling Coogan and Heche's white collar scheme but its effective moments far outweigh the flab that could have been trimmed.The Other Guys smartly and hilariously satirizes and salutes the buddy cop action comedy genre and so far is the funniest movie of the summer.

The entire movie is a tough balancing act and The Other Guys has trouble getting the mixture to work to its full effect.Because the funny parts are so good you'll notice when there's a stretch of jokes that just aren't working. That being said The Other Guys is almost as quotable as

The Other Guys take on where the action comedy movie has its story taking place in New York City detectives office.Among all of them there are two exceptional officers who are considered as great in their job.

Coconut Crab The Largest Land Living Arthropod In The World

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 01:54 PM PDT


Successfully conserving the habitat of coconut crabs will not only protect the coastal zones and nearby waters but also land areas.It is an umbrella species of Green Island and the best indicator for monitoring the quality of this island's ecosystems.

The Coconut Crab comes from the same family as the hermit crab.The family Coenobitidae contains only two genera Coenobita the land hermit crabs and Birgus containing only the Coconut Crab Birgus latro Johnson 1965.

They discard these shells for increasingly larger ones until they attain a size and tenure and no longer require them.

The coconut crab Birgus latro is the largest land living arthropod in the world and is probably at the upper limit of how big terrestrial animals with exoskeletons can become in today's atmosphere.The species inhabits the coastal forest regions of many Indo-Pacific islands although localized extinction has occurred where the crab is sympatric with man.Generally nocturnal they remain hidden during the day and emerge only on some nights to forage.

Barack Obama With key Advisor and Alexi Giannoulias

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 04:23 AM PDT


"You can trust him. You can count on him," Obama insisted, with Giannoulias seated behind him on stage at Chicago's Palmer House Hilton.

Barack Hussein Obama II (born August 4, 1961) is the 44th and current President of the United States. He is the first African American to hold the office. Obama previously served as a United States Senator from Illinois, from January 2005 until he resigned after his election to the presidency in November 2008.

A key economic advisor to President Barack Obama, Christina Romer, is set to step down next month and return to teaching in California, the White House has said.

Elliot, whose restaurant bills itself as Chicago's first "bistronomic" eatery that prepares updated classic American dishes, was only a little stressed about his high-profile clients -- because he'd been in Los Angeles doing PR for his new FOX show, "Master Chef," on which he is a judge.

The two pleaded with their famous mother until she agreed to buy them the kit - which lets children make a lotion and give their hands a mud bath. But the niggling story that has plagued the actress, 35, for over a year has exploded, threatening to damage her reputation for good.

"As much as there are bad guys that are Russian, there are also heroes that are Russian in this film," she said as her diamond stud earrings sparkled in the sunshine of Moscow's record-setting heatwave.

The original Madoc was a legendary Welsh prince who discovered the New World 300 years before Columbus. Maddox is a common surname in Wales.

Tennessee Election Results Are Released But Servers Crashed

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 02:50 AM PDT


The new reporting system was supposed to make collecting and posting vote totals from the state's 95 county election commissions more efficient and easier for the public to track results. In tests earlier this week, everything worked fine and backup servers were in place, Fontenay said.

He said that there was an association between commercial interests and the gambling allowed in the areas of their property. This was indeed a big allegation and Haslam had to deny it if he wanted the support of the voters. Apparently Haslam did deny the claim and the allegation that there were ties between the commercial interests of the Haslam family and gambling. He did backfire on the subject as well but that was not as strong an attack as the one Wamp made on Haslam.

Due to the unprecedented volume of traffic on our web site, our servers have crashed," said Blake Fontenay, spokesman for the Division of Elections. "As a result, we will not be able to continue to offer updates on election results throughout the evening. This service was something new that we tried this year - and we apologize for the inconvenience. When we receive the final results, we will post them online in a PDF format, as we have in years past."

In the end, viewers see that there is more to these tan and buff individuals than hair gel.



The Situation is lying in bed, he grabs a beer and takes a swig. Ronnie doesn't remember what he's doing, who he is, what country he's in. He's asking people what's happening and people aren't telling him. Ronnie explains that he had a "Snooki" night.

Jackass 3D Film Releasing October 15

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 02:44 AM PDT


The set piece stunts are in bright and crisp 3D that really adds to the effect of whatever they are trying to do. As others have stated the intro is pretty cool but I was actually left wanting just a bit more. Note the paintballs though, in amazing 3D. This is Johnny, Ryan Dunn, Steve-o, Pontius, and Weeman's show. Dave and Aaron end up getting hurt as usual but are awesome sports.

Jackass 3D, also known as Jackass Number 3 is an upcoming 2010 3-D film of the Jackass series. On December 2009, Paramount Pictures and MTV Films announced an October 15, 2010 release.



All the stupid stunts and senseless violence really go a long way toward justifying the technology. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that the scene where the porta potty is bungeed into the air is a 1000 times more impressive than anything in Avatar.

Kanye West Power Video MTV never officially banned

Posted: 06 Aug 2010 02:37 AM PDT


Interspersed with performance shots of Rihanna and Em, the whole thing has a gritty kind of shine to it. And despite a cliched ending (spoiler: it involves fire) and cliched shots of Mr. Mathers in a field, it was surely worth the wait. Surely.

"The whole idea of celebrity, the idea of power, the idea of sensuality in it, there's sexuality in it as well, and those were all kind of themes that I've explored in my work before. Once I heard the album, that was what clinched it, and I felt very much in tune with the message behind the music."

MTV never officially banned Kanye West from their studios after last fall's VMA Awards, and the network continued to play his old videos. But since then, he has not debuted any new work on MTV, and there has been much speculation on music websites about whether the network would take him back.
