As if flagship land yachts weren't enough, Cadillac has gone and announced that the ATS-V sedan will make its world debut at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show.
Different cars serve different purposes. Of course, you already know this. You know, for example, that people buy compact cars for fuel economy. People buy minivans to haul other people. And people buy Acuras because they're confused.
So why do people buy station wagons? For practicality, of course. People buy wagons so they can pack up all their belongings, load them inside the cargo area, and hand the keys to a car transporter who makes constant runs between Greenwich, Connecticut, and Palm Beach.
Upon graduation from Belfast Teacher's Training College in the late '60s, my father found himself summoned into the headmaster's office. A heavy oaken drawer was opened and an object placed upon the green baize of the blotting pad: "Ye'll be needin' this."
"This" was the strap, thick leather symbol of martial law in the classroom. Dad left it lying where it was, left behind the tobacco-scented claustrophobia of that small office, left behind the small-minded bigotry of that blood-soaked island, and built himself a new home in the wilds of British Columbia.
From my birth, this has been my template for the masculine ideal: resolve, courage, intelligence, compassion. In the latter stages of his career, my father – long an administrator – could walk in and quell any classroom by his mere physical presence. And so, I've endeavoured to emulate him. To refrain from roarin' an' shoutin'. To be calm, yet firm of purpose. To be a man.
Of course, five minutes behind the wheel of this thing and it's, COME AT ME BRO! (Read More…)
A few years after I left Detroit, doing my best to forget my heart-wrenching decision to give up on car design, a similarly disheartened automaker named Saturn made something called an Ion. I saw it at the Houston Auto Show circa 2002. Wounds from Detroit still fresh on my mind, I had absolutely no problem with the Saturn Ion shown behind a velvet rope. I honestly thought it was a design study commissioned by Playskool, not a production ready vehicle from General Motors.
I mean, it was that awful. So imagine my surprise when the General's peeps come up with something nearly as ugly…and this time it's a Cadillac. (Read More…)

Dear Sajeev and Steve,
If Lord Acton were alive today, I'm sure he'd say: "Power tends to corrupt, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great cars are almost always bad cars." I believe it this philosophy that Cadillac hopes will rejuvenate Cadillac, a brand that only recently started taking performance seriously but is already achieving some surprising results. Already our own Michael Karesh has got his kicks with the CTS-V wagon, Niedermeyer has drooled over the sedan and Jack Baruth has killed the track at Monticello in both this coupe and the sedan… it might be safe to say Caddy has a winner on their hands. Still, why not snag the 556 HP V Coupe for a week to see how it handles some California road testing? What's the worst that could happen?
I firmly believe that it's more fun to drive a (relatively) slow compact hatch fast than to drive a big, fast car well below its potential. I remain hopeful that someone will offer a car with five doors and rear-wheel-drive that weighs under 3,000 pounds. (I'd say under 2,700 pounds, but that's clearly a pipe dream.) Then Cadillac put a CTS-V in my driveway for a week. A wagon with a manual transmission, no less. That Cadillac even offers such a combination warrants respect. The lure of the dark side has never been stronger.
We were not amused (to coin a phrase) at Ford's decision to tax fans of the hatchback by adding $500 to the price of its five-door Fiesta and forthcoming Focus. And rather than following Ford's example, GM has priced its CTS-V Sportwagon some $475 cheaper than its $63,465 CTS-V sedan, by starting prices for the unique muscle wagon at $62,990 (including destination). Needless to say, we love the wüchtig, 556 HP CTS-V, so the prospect of a distinctively be-hatched version for less money is like catnip here at TTAC HQ. On the other hand, our beef with Ford has to do with its refusal to offer the practicality of a hatch at the base price point, and that argument doesn't really hold water in the tire-smoking world of supercharged V8 rocketships. Moreover, $475 doesn't exactly make much of a difference when you're talking about a car that costs the equivalent of four base Fiestas. Still, we like to think of this as a win for the wagons… if only in principle.
Nothing but bad news from the video recorder; even when it was working, the fabulous sound of the supercharged CTS-V's V-8 was left out.
This is a reasonably quick pit-to-pit lap of Monticello in the CTS-V Coupe. I was 3mph short of the local instructors at the end of the back straight. I'll blame it on (the admirably fit) weight of my passenger, AutoGuide's senior editor Colum Wood.
In the video, you can see the site of my off-track mishap and get a feel for what it's like to push this very quick coupe around the track at cornering pressures of 1.1g or more. Don't forget to click it to "480" to get the full resolution from the instruments.
As I crest Monticello Motor Club's Turn 17, I am speaking directly to you, the TTAC reader, through the magic of a complete video, data, and audio recording system installed in my six-speed manual CTS-V Coupe.
"I have an idea," I say, as I hold the throttle pinned to the stop way past the braking markers, over the hill, down the back of the left-hander, the speedometer swinging well into the triple digits, tach reaching to redline. "I think… this section can be taken flat."
Flat, as in flat-out, as in without the mild braking before Turn 17 recommended by the instructors at Monticello and practiced by all reasonable individuals. And, indeed, I make it over the crest pointed in nearly the right direction… but any experienced racer knows that traction on the back of a hill is never as good as traction on the front of the hill. In under a second I've reached the absolute maximum slip angle of the tires. I haven't done it. I've overstepped my limits, and the limits of the car. To turn more is futile and perhaps deadly, since I am pointed at the grass and traveling at over one hundred miles per hour. If I have any steering dialed-in to the car when I touch that rough surface, I can cartwheel end over end in the fashion of Antonio Pizzonia in a Jag S-Type. Have to exit the track straight. What happens now?

How badly would you want to go visit Omaha, Nebraska?
When you live at or close to the beach, land-locked corn country doesn't seem super appealing.
But for the 64 teams in the NCAA baseball championships, they're desperate to hit the Road to Omaha and the College World Series. Good for Florida, their first stop on the trip is at home in Gainesville.
The SEC regular season champ Gators received the second overall seed in the tourney Monday morning, and also, will host regional action of the NCAA's beginning Friday at McKethan Stadium.
It's the fifth time in the last seven seasons UF is one of the eight squads nationally ranked in the championships. That's the most in the sport.
Florida is the top ranked squad of 10 SEC teams selected for the postseason, that's the most a single conference has ever received in the history of Baseball Championships.
In the region, top seed Florida leads off with number four and Colonial champ College of Charleston at 6 PM central. They're joined in Gainesville by number two Long Beach St and number three North Carolina. It's double-elimination, winner of the pool will face the winner of the Coral Gables regional hosted by Miami in the super regionals.

If you go to this link you can find a map and driving directions to the field from the Ohio State Athletics Website. It is close but it is more secluded than the WHAC.
Thanks for sharing the video. It has been awhile since I have done a formal tasting. The part the stuck out to me is paying respect to the whiskey while you are drinking it. The whiskey can take over a decade to create to perfection and a number of environmental conditions could destroy an entire batch.
On my bar at home I keep an Oban 14, Scapa 16 and the Auchentoshan Three Wood
I'm generally a scotch guy but Bulleit Bourbon is good stuff. When I make it back home, my buddy and I sit on the porch, light a pipe and enjoy some Bulleit
If any of you travel through Chicago O'Hare, Diageo does a whiskey tasting in the United Lounges about once a quarter. I ran across it on my last trip back to the US and it was fantastic. You only get to taste the Diageo Labels but it is still a pretty good mix
Looks like Bo is ready for the Circle Drill
Off the same article, Brain Bennett names Braxton Miller as the top player in the Big Ten. Gordon checks in at 4. I guess the guys at ESPN aren't sharing very well
I was looking for some Korey Stringer Highlight film from Ohio State and ran across this gem from youtube (Thanks Youtube uploader David Baugh). The quality of the video is not great but the quality of the player jumps off the film
Mike "The Situation" and the entire Jersey Shore experience is something that I wish could be erased from American Pop Culture history
I did the same thing last year. Check out this link. It should give you all the info you need
His attitude and willingness to work should be the determining factors on whether or not he is allowed to come back to the team. There have been countless articles written about the family atmosphere of this team. Family does not end a relationship after one mistake. Punishment is required but if he is willing to make amends and put in the work to regain his credibility then why can't he come back.
Coach Mick must be Dr. Abraham Erskine and "juice" must be the super soldier serum that turned Steve Rogers into Captain America
A school with multiple rivals is a school with no rivals
I cannot speak for the entire fan base but I fully disagree with your comment. If this situation happened at Ohio State I would want all university affiliated employees that helped cover it up to be immediately removed from the university. The value of Ohio State not just built on more that Rivalry Wins and Football National Titles. It is built on the Students, Alumni, Professors and Staff and there contributions to the world. Actions like this destroy good will and reputation that takes decades to build.
Waters trying to change the culture was addressed in the report. President Drake and the OSU Administration made a decision and I cannot believe that there is anything else to be said that would change it. There have been so many high profile stories recently of sexual harassment and rape handled improperly by university staffs all over the country. Ohio State cannot be perceived to being even close to that category. Additionally, President Drake has been on the job about 1 month and his reputation in Columbus and Nationally is still being formed.
Squirrel Master, I come to this site everyday for the quality of the product presented not necessarily the quality of each individual piece. You are right to say that it's a free blog site and I am not expecting perfectly constructed articles from those trained in the art of journalism. I read 11w because it resembles a more informed version of the conversations that I have with my family concerning the Buckeyes when I visit Xenia, OH for Thanksgiving.
Ross' commentary is like my cousin who is a Youth Football Coach, DJ's rants are like another cousin who is a US Army Servicemen turned Long-Haul Trucker but has generally been quite a story teller and never shied away from a little irreverence. Jeremy/John recruiting are like my cousin who played at Akron but has friends throughout various high school and college programs throughout Ohio. The conversation in the comments resemble the back forth across the table from family members who have varying degrees of affinity to Ohio State. There are even a few Michigan Fans.
11w is great. The writing is very good but what makes it great is the full package the represents our eclectic Buckeye Family.
It is a right of passage at Ohio State to get a ticket from T&P and get towed by Shamrock. Even if you had a pass, there was no guarantee that you could find a spot and had to roll the dice by parking on the street. I had a CP pass for 3 years and at least once a quarter, I had to park somewhere on the streets around south campus and it usually resulted in a ticket.
"Ohio State was meant for me." No better words spoken.
I was born and raised in St. Louis but I bleed Scarlet and Gray. The homer in me has been pulling for EzE since he committed. Hometown pride over takes every time he has a little bit of personal success. Hopefully, next season will be filled with an overwhelming amount of those moments that contribute to overall team greatness.
It is amazing how something as simple as a small black strip of tape on the helmet can be such a great motivator. I remember being surprised that Apple wasn't one of the first to lose it but like he said in the video consistency was his issue. In an age where recruiting stars create outsized expectations, that stripe serves as a great check on ego. I hope all the guys deal with adversity the way Apple did. He worked hard, reflected on his problems and had a plan to get better. I love it. Maybe I should do something like this with my new staff members
He threw a 100LB flower pot through the window? That is serious drunk-strength
It's not common where I live. Even though Chipotle is a national chain, I didn't have it in St. Louis when I was growing up and now I live overseas. Going to Chipotle takes me all the way back to Freshman year in Park Hall

Symantec offer sticks in craw of some Chinese users
We were skeptical on Monday when Symantec said it would atone for a bug that crippled the PCs of tens of thousands Chinese users by giving them free software. "Cockroach in your salad, sir? Have some free salad," was how we put it. Sure enough, critics in China's electronics industry are pouncing on the compensation offer, …
Is there an echo in here?
In all honesty, who the hell didn't see this coming? It's like a story I read about on b3ta: Bunch of people get sick at a restaurant, health inspector is called in, finds many problems, restaurant owner /tries to bribe the inspector with free food from the restaurant/.
What surprises me is why other AV vendors aren't jumping in and waving their products, effectively kicking Symantec out of the Chinese market. "Had enough with Norton? Here's a free one-year copy of AVG."
Also, kudos to El Reg for the 'cockroach salad' idea. Marvelous, and made me chortle plenty.
The solution
On the net they say
"If an affected PC was rebooted, Windows failed on start-up and showed only a blue screen"
Was it netapp32.dll and lsass.exe, lsasrv.dll and not lsass.exe or was it netappi32.dll and lsasrv.dll ?
My own Laptop has no XP disc just a recovery function to defaults.
Some iso bootable CD with an NTFS writing ability and possibly the admin password hack, is the recovery console even installed by default?. Someone could go round ressurecting PC's at high speed without all the hassle.
Continuing to use Symantec as you installed it so your computer wouldn't crash to a blue screen and wipe system files, be it a Thousand or a Million that were infected who would want a free year?
Symantec- The place where old programs go to die!
I have a solution to AV issues
I dont run AV as such on my home PC, I use whats called my Brain 1.0 Simply install Firefox, Ad-aware and Spybot, update and scan after a browsing session and I do browse lots of porn sites also to test the effectivness of this setup...lol Each weekend I do an online test at Trend Micro and I also install AVG, scan and then uninstall and the only time there was an issue was when I tried IE7 and immediatly got trojan'd!! Back to Firefox I went :) I use online mail such as Yahoo and Hotmail who scan all attachments for me, how do these muppets get infected? Nothing is foolproof but its mostly to do with the fool sitting at the machine.
Elephant Graveyard
Corel should buy Symantec, or vice versa, just to complete the cycle. Then they can be the whole useless security/backup/multimedia elephant graveyard.
Old Chinese saying...

About April Barton
We are the Barton family. Spencer and I (April) both grew up in the Salt Lake area. We are currently stationed in Germany while my husband serves in the United States Army. We have enjoyed having a short term rental and have time and again seen how good and respectful people are. We are grateful for a wonderful property manager and family who have helped us keep the rental going while we are out of the country. Thankfully with their help and technology it has been a very good experience. Though we are far from home for now we still call Salt Lake City home and are excited to share our home with you.
April Barton purchased this studio in 2002
Why April Barton chose Cottonwood Heights
We love our studio for many reasons, but especially for how bright and cheery it is and it's fabulous location.

This was supposed to be a photo contest not a popularity contest to see who had the most friends. I am disappointed that the fabulous phote of Nellie was not the winner, it is an once in a lifetime photo.
The Black Lab photo was beautiful!! Don't think popularity has much to do with winning. For the 5 dogs that qualified out of 400+ is awesome;•)they were all winners!
The clownish appearance of Griffs make them excellent photo subjects. I have yet to see anyone not smile at a Griff.

A type of Story Overwrite. In a video game, upon triggering a cutscene, your Player Character very often gets teleported to a different position in the same room where the cutscene takes place. This is especially evident for cutscenes after Boss Battle, which usually teleport the player and the boss to the center of the room for the cutscene regardless of where they were when the finishing blow was dealt. If you're lucky (or unlucky, depending on the circumstances), you could be left standing in that spot when the cutscene ends. If the boss dropped an item, you might be dropped a few inches away from it and staring right at it. This is sometimes strictly necessary because cutscenes can change the room, making aversions possibly disastrous if the spot you were standing in before turns out to be over a Bottomless Pit after the cutscene ends. Very useful for speedruns if it is possible to trigger a certain cutscene from a distance, thus saving some walking time.

Sailboat Gets Tangled Up With Aerial Lift Bridge [VIDEO]
Over the weekend, Dave Anderson from the Northland's News Center did a story on sail boat safety, and reported on a mishap that took place just a couple of weeks ago.
Over the weekend, Dave Anderson from the Northland's News Center did a story on sail boat safety, and reported on a mishap that took place just a couple of weeks ago.
I know a lot of people travel all over to camp, fish and enjoy the outdoors. Of course, there are pests to be aware of and if you're heading towards the Detroit Lakes area in Minnesota, then this will of special interest to you.
As more and more people hit the water for fishing and recreation, it's also that time of year to be aware of where zebra mussels are and how to prevent spreading them.
An aluminum can encrusted with zebra mussels found at Crooked Lake in Lake County has resulted in the lake being designated as infested, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Crooked Lake is located near the town of Finland.
It's that time of the year where we all get set to hit the water for fishing and recreation, so it's a perfect time for National Safe Boating Week. This weekend, the U.S. Army Corps Of Engineers was helping spread the message of the "Ready, Set, Wear It!" campaign, reminding everyone of the importance of wearing life jackets.
Yep, that's right. Today is "Wear Your Life Jacket To Work Day." It kicks off the National Safe Boating Week that Starts tomorrow.
When you think of boating safety, it usually involves wearing a life jacket and operating the boat responsibly. However as Kare 11 reports, there's a hidden danger that you've probably never even thought about.
Ever wonder why sometimes you see a boat on a trailer on the side of the highway with no truck to be found? Probably because the wheel bearing failed and it either lost a week or it has a wheel bent on the side. It's a common mistake that many boaters make - not checking their wheel bearings.
A study has been done on 50 lakes across Minnesota looking for chemicals that find their way into the lakes. The most common chemical was DEET (used in bug spray). Followed by a plastics chemical, and then surprisingly cocaine showed up. Sometimes the cocaine was even found in remote lakes not near a sewer run off.
Murphy's law always applies to me. Here's some ridiculous things that have happened to me while fishing.
1. Forget to put the drain plug in the boat. With new DNR laws, you're suppose to always travel with the drain plug out. After years o
A couple of years ago I inherited a vintage boat from my Grandpa who had passed away. As sad as it was to lose my Grandpa, it did bring me some comfort that I would be able to share his passion for fishing by taking care of his boat
The weather has certainly been giving us Spring fever. Some of us may have already tucked the snow blower away and had our sights set on the "fun" summer toys. The MN DNR reminds us, before we make that BIG purchase, you should review rules and regulations, so you aren't spending thousands needlessly. Here's the skinny.

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
WICHITA, Kan. — Police are looking for a suspect they believe robbed the same convenience store twice in a matter of weeks.
Just after 10:30 p.m. Thursday, an employee of a convenience store and gas station at 2199 N. Woodlawn called police saying the business had just been robbed.
When officers arrived, she told them it was the same man who robbed the store weeks before. She said he came in with a gun that she believed was a toy, and handed her a brown Dillons plastic bag to put money into. Once he had the cash, he ran from the store.
The suspect is described as a black male in his 40s, about 5-feet, 2-inches tall and 200 pounds. He was wearing a blue hoodie, black sweatpants, black cotton gloves and black sunglasses.
Anyone with information is asked to call police.

Line Umpires at Wimbledon Qualifying by Getty Images
There are two types of tennis Umpires within the sport, both Line Umpires and Chair Umpires. A Line Umpire is responsible for calling the lines on the tennis court and the Chair Umpire is responsible for calling the score and settling any issues.
You need to work your way up to becoming a Chair Umpire by starting as a Line Umpire and progressing from there. Once you are trained you can become a tennis Umpire at local county and regional competition and certain selected tennis Umpires get to officiate at Wimbledon and International events.
You will need to attend and pass the one day Basic Line Umpire course, which provides an introduction to line umpiring. The minimum age take the course is 16.
The day will be a combination of classroom and on court work and the course is a pass/fail dependent on your performance on the day.
Once you have successfully completed the Basic Line Umpire course you can apply online for an LTA Officials Licence. Officials require an LTA DBS check in order to apply for an Officials Licence. Find out more about the Officials Licence Scheme here
Licensed Umpires will then be eligible for selections as Line Umpires at tournaments.
Details of the Winter 2014 course dates are now available here and the courses can be booked on through the online course search. There is a £25 charge for the course. Please note the course is very popular - the Loughborough and Bolton courses are full but there are waitlist spaces available for the two Bolton dates.
Once you have gained some experience as a line umpire, Licensed Umpires are eligible to be invited onto a Chair Umpire Accreditation Course.
This day course is run 2-4 times a year, and will build on your knowledge as a line umpire with an introduction to and training in chair umpiring.
The course is a combination of classroom and on-court work and includes an exam at the end of the course. From September 2013 there will be a fee for the Chair Umpire Accreditation course.
You will be able to begin umpiring at local club finals days and junior tournaments.
With experience, good assessments and further courses you can progress to Line and Chair at more high profile tournaments.
The role of officiating in tennis is unique to other sports as it often involves regular contact and a supervisory role of children, young people and adults at risk during tournaments. For these reasons, Accredited Umpires will require an LTA DBS disclosure.

With a burst from the gate, Well Heeled controlled the pace of the six furlong contest from the outset. Up a half length after a quarter mile, the dark bay filly spurted clear by four lengths on the turn, then coasted home a length and a half winner in 1:11.73.
Well Heeled is out of the Salt Lake mare High Heeled Hope, winner of the Maker's Mark S. and Indian Summer S. She also placed in the Las Virgenes S. (G1) and Hollywood Starlet (G1). High Heeled Hope is the dam of Endine S. (G3) winner Sweet Hope.

Or is it next month? I've lost track), so she may well not be home anyway, - she is known as a rather prickly individual I expect to see her at the ANG National Symposium the first week of November, in San Diego. I most definately expect to ask her then. But now I have several things to try before I talk to her. I would rather approach with a solved problem than with a complaint, even though her original advice led to the predicament I'm in. She made the recommendation about pencil tracing after someone in the class asked her about transferring designs. The design we were working upon in class was her design, transferred to the linen with number 2 pencil. All lines of her design are covered by the thread, so it doesn't show. The key difference is that after taking her class, i designed something, transferred it to a fresh piece of linen, and in the process of tracing it on my light box, got some of the lines where they did not belong. The tracing problem was wholly my fault. And pencil is probably fine if you know that you will always trace true, and thus will always hide the lines with thread. So her advice was not entirely bad, just not good advice for me. :-) Melinda Sherbring (Eowyn Amberdrake) ============================================================================ Go to http://lists.ansteorra.org/lists.html to perform mailing list tasks.

If one were to go past City Hall recently then they would have noticed a different flag waving in the wind.
Along with the usual Canadian, Saskatchewan and City flags, a L.A. Kings flag would have been seen flying some 2,923 kilometres from Los Angeles.
But why, in a city where many support Canadian teams like Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal, is a flag that represents the sixth most southern USA-based team in all of the NHL blowing in the Saskatchewan breeze?
The reason is really quite simple. Jason Gordon, a long-time resident of Yorkton, simply asked the city's Mayor, one Bob Maloney, if a Kings flag could be flown in support of Yorkton's hometown hero Jarret Stoll. The Mayor, Gordon quickly found out, was more than happy to oblige. "He (Jason Gordon) asked if we would fly a Los Angeles Kings flag at City Hall to celebrate Jarret Stoll, who is from Yorkton and plays for the Kings," mentioned the Mayor. "I said I knew somebody who could make that happen, but we needed a flag. So Jason got a hold of some buddies, got a flag and dropped it off in my mailbox at home.
"I came in on Sunday and we had our Recreation and Parks flag up because June is Parks month, but I didn't think they'd mind, so after finding the right keys I replaced it with the L.A. Kings flag."
So it took just a matter of days, on a weekend no less, for the Kings flag to be raised in Yorkton. Asked if he was surprised about the speed of which Mayor Maloney utilized in getting the flag, Gordon said, "Not too surprised. I think Bob Maloney was eager to do it."
In fact, the Mayor was very eager to get it done. So eager, in fact, that he didn't consult anyone with the decision. "I didn't consult anybody at City Hall about it, I changed the flag on my own," said the chuckling Yorkton Mayor, continuing, "I hope I haven't offended any Ranger fans but when you've got a hometown man playing on the team it's not a difficult decision as to who to cheer for."
Maloney also said he felt that Stoll has been a great ambassador of the City of Yorkton, as evidenced by his willingness to fly to Vernon, BC, and pay for the meals of the Yorkton Terriers during their run to the 2014 Royal Bank Cup while his Kings were in the thick of their Round One playoff battle with the San Jose Sharks and that raising this flag was just one small way to show how much the community appreciates what he does. "He's been involved with the Terriers for a while. I think he knows most of the guys playing on the team and he's an inspiration to these young men (on and off the ice)," offered Maloney, continuing, "It takes quite a guy to dig into his own pocket to do what he did for the Yorkton Terriers while they were in Vernon at the Royal Bank Cup and I don't think we can repay him for that."
As for if Stoll is aware of the Kings flag at City Hall, the quick answer is: yes he is. "We sent him some pictures of it," offered Gordon. "Yorkton is not only his home town, but his brother and sister are businesspeople in Yorkton and I know it puts a big smile on their faces knowing the entire town (minus Ranger fans) are behind Jarret."

In a statement released yesterday, Microsoft Corp. CEO Steve Ballmer announces his retirement. Mr. Ballmer has been the top executive for the software giant since 2000, succeeding to Bill Gates.
"There is never a perfect time for this type of transition, but now is the right time. We have embarked on a new strategy with a new organization and we have an amazing Senior Leadership Team. My original thoughts on timing would have had my retirement happen in the middle of our company's transformation to a devices and services company. We need a CEO who will be here longer term for this new direction." is quoted to have said Ballmer in a letter to all employees on Friday.
While it is unclear if this was planned or if it is a direct result of the under-performance of Microsoft's most recent products, it seems the company hasn't made a choice as to who will replace Mr. Ballmer. The board of directors has appointed a selection committee that will be tasked with finding a CEO to lead Microsoft through the reorganization process that was started by the departing chief executive. Mr. Gates will seat on the selection committee along other executives and consultants.
"As a member of the succession planning committee, I'll work closely with the other members of the board to identify a great new CEO," said Gates. "We're fortunate to have Steve in his role until the new CEO assumes these duties."
While only time will tell if this a is good or a bad move for Microsoft by Mr. Ballmer, investors seem to find it is for the best. The company's stock rose 7.29% (MSFT) in the wake of the announcement.
Steve Ballmer has been with Microsoft since 1980 and was the company's first business manager. He occupied a few vice president positions before becoming chief executive officer in 2000 when Bill Gates stepped down.

On a side note, Nokia's Elop is still foreseen as Microsoft's next CEO... or how to drive two companies right into the ground at the same time. :confused::burn:Bookmakers place Nokia's Stephen Elop in the lead for Microsoft next CEO. 5/1 are the chances. LOL
How nice an idea would it be to name the CEO of a company on the decline to reinvigorate a company on the decline. :screwy:Sun CEO once asked us to imagine if a single company owned rights to the letters of the alphabet and got a royalty each time they were used. That is the situation Microsoft is in when it comes to software, he said. I am paraphrasing but you get the point.
When we talk about the economy in Iran for example, even with gross incompetence and with people at the top having utter inability to run anything, the oil dollars make up for those missteps so much that they stayed afloat even with mismanagement for so long.
So it would be pretty hard to do much worse than he did because of the monopolistic nature of their business. Saying Mr. Balmer did well where he did not have competition to speak of, is one thing. If he failed where they did not have a monopoly, and he did fail where he did not have a monopoly, then that is a true measure of his abilities.Win 8 and Surface were bad, to say the least. But Ballmer has been a good CEO overall.

It remains to be seen if somebody else can actually do better with current market situation. Microsoft is a gigantic ship to command and it just can't turn around on a dime.bring on the 1.21 jigawatt processors!The man must have wielded enormous personal influence over Board Members for them to have not applied standard performance evaluation/consequences procedures to him for this long.
The details of how he accomplished such influence over them, what was used, how he did it, that would be a historical story of value. The people who could have removed him earlier didn't just wave their fist and say 'Gosh, Steve will do better next time, we know he will, you'll see...'
So who were the people that kept him in for this long in full view of numerous consecutive failures, what did they get out of it? That would make a good investigative story.Not only Win8, but Surface was a major disaster for Microsoft.... just like any other device they tried to push in the last decade (with the exception of Xbox).CulbrelaiWe can only hope he'll take Windows 8 with him
Thats the 1st thing I thought when I saw the title!! I figured we would have seen this a week after windows 8 was released.We can only hope he'll take Windows 8 with him
