(DUH-lee) - Noun - A Dullie is a Sharpie pen that has been used so much that the tip is all frazzled and will not write a smooth or fine line.
I've had this same Sharpie for almost 2 years, and I think it would now officially qualify as a Dullie.

Top 10 Knoppix rescue tricks
To the Rescue
The Knoppix Live Linux distro is packed with powerful tools for fixing broken systems. We ask Knoppix creator Klaus Knopper for his favorite Knoppix rescue tricks.
The Knoppix Live Linux distribution has been used by thousands to rescue lost files, systems, partitions, and hard disks. We asked Knoppix creator Klaus Knopper to name the top 10 most important rescue scenarios. Some of these solutions are based on a single tool, and others use a combination of tools or tool alternatives. Master all 10 of these techniques, and you'll be well on your way to becoming the office expert in system rescue.
But a word of warning: Data forensics and data rescue are not tasks for the beginner; you should always be familiar with the procedures before you work in a real-world setting; otherwise, you might end up destroying more data than you can possibly rescue.

Quip app security hole shares private photos
- From: news.com.au
- March 30, 2010
- iPhone app had serious security hole
- Thousands of intimate photos leaked
- More: Technology news and reviews
THOUSANDS of intimate photos sent between iPhone users have been made public after an embarrassing security flaw.
The Quip app promised to let people send pictures to each other for free — like sending a multimedia message but without any fees.
What it didn't say was that anyone with a few web skills could see them as well.
Quip stored the private images on a publicly accessible web server without any encryption, making them easy prey for savvy internet users.
Now some of the most intimate moments of thousands of people are being circulated on web forums.
Many photos show people posing nude or having sex. Others show a day at the baseball or baby shots.
One image shows a man naked from the waist up and seemingly covered in cuts and blood. Another seems to have been taken inside the White House.
Some internet users have also allegedly matched up nude photos with real names and Facebook profiles.
On one web forum, a user identifying as one of the makers of the Quip app said the system had been shut down.
"Hello, this is Ish, the founder of Addy Mobile, makers of the Quip app," said "ish_addy" on Reddit.
"As soon as this post came to our attention, we immediately shut down our servers. We have also now disabled all S3 access and have started to systematically secure all files in the system.
"We will not bring the system back up until we have adequate security around all files shared over Quip."
However many of the photos, saved by people before the servers were shut down, are still being circulated.

ID10TError Posted at 4:10 PM March 30, 2010
To all those users who said it has nothing to do with apple/iphone. apple 'approves' wether or not applications are available in its app store, so apple 'approved' the app clearly making them at least partly responsible, they didnt ask questions like how does it work? where is the data stored and how. no they just asked what it does and not very much more. As apple makes the Iphobe and polices apps one could blame the phone, cause windows mobile or blackberry allow users free choice of apps and thus the onus is on the user to work out what is going on. ROFL couldnt have happened to a more greedy company.

Although we're still roughly a week away from the Patriots' season-opener in Miami next Monday night, it's not too early to try and analyze how this one will play out.
Considering how badly New England squished the fish in both meetings last season, there's probably not much analysis needed here; in the end, it's just another easy Pats win, right?
Well, not so fast. The Dolphins do have a few players capable of giving the Patriots fits if not accounted for—some of which may surprise you. Here are five Dolphins the Patriots should be preparing for if they want to leave Miami with a season-opening victory.

2014 draft picks: 2nd round (59), 3(90), 5(166), 6(203), 7(232)
The Colts won 11 games in Andrew Luck's second season and the future looks oh so bright. There are not many quarterbacks in the history of the NFL that have seen this kind of success in two years. Luck has shown he's already an elite signal caller and now it's time to build around him and beef up the Indy defense.
Remember, the Colts don't have a first round selection because they traded for running back Trent Richardson. It looks like the Browns got the better of the deal but it's only one season. Lets see what the former Alabama standout can do with an off-season and training camp with Indy.
1. Defensive Backs
The Colts need to address the backend of their secondary both at cornerback and safety. They need to find a starter at corner and draft a safety, maybe two.
2. Linebacker
D'Qwell Jackson is a nice veteran free agent signee for Indy. He will certainly bring leadership and stability to the linebacking corps. They could use a young body on the inside and would love to upgrade the outside linebacker spot with someone that can get after the quarterback in their defensive scheme.
3. Offensive Guard
The Colts have had some turnover at the guard position and should look to solidify the middle of their offensive front. As things stand right now they only have five draft picks but I would anticipate one of those being used here.

If you already have a device with Android 4.4 kitkat on it you may have noticed that your favorite battery stats tool, whether it is BetterBatteryStats, GSam of wakelock detector, does not work.
Well it is not uncommon that new Android versions break a few apps and it usually takes us a few days for your favorite dev to fix things.
But this time is different and the changes are important enough for me to attempt to draw some attention on this matter.
Some context
Android has a service called 'batteryinfo' that collects info about what goes on on your phone. That service is not perfect but provides some pretty good information to our battery monitoring apps: an insight into what drains the battery.
To communicate with that service an app has (in fact had) just to claim the android.permission.BATTERY_STATS permission. This permission is (was) of the category "dangerous", notifying users of the fact that they should check why an app requires that permission. For a battery monitoring app it is pretty logical to require it.
What happened
With kitkat starting to ship things happened pretty fast and first feedbacks started to emerge reporting that the aforementioned service could not be contacted.
After some research two changes in 4.4 are responsible for the problem:
1. batteryinfo was renamed to batterystats
2. the BATTERY_STATS permission has been make unavailable to apps (moved from protectionLevel 'dangerous' to 'signature|system'
This is the change preventing apps to be granted that permission: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base.git/+/3714141d287c965ea3451831dd5167f63f8db87b
As you can see the change refers to an issue number but this issue is not documented in the public tracker (welcome to not-really-open-source).
I have posted on the android-platform forum to request a clarification on why that change was made (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-platform/f-7Td9aeFKY) but DID NOT GET ANY satisfying feedback. Therefore I have filed an issue in the public bug tracker for this change to be rolled back (https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=61975&thanks=61975&ts=1383910497).
I kindly invite you to upvote this request by staring it (no comment "I vote for this" or "Please undo this" please, but star the issue)
Why does all this matter
It matters to me as this change broke my app and forced me to spend a lot of time and effort working around this with some dirty hacks.
It also matters to me because it shows the limit of a platform and an organisaion that only pretends to be open source:
- the source code was released but the reason for that change was not communicated
- there is no way to file a pull request to the code (filing an issue and hoping that it will be considered is not the same)
- decisions to make changes are not transparent to non Googlers
What could be different
Wouldn't it be great if we could try to change that situation and take control?
A dream would come true if popular Android ROM projects could take control of this kind of changes and decide (or not) to revert them in an open process.
I would really like to hear what +CyanogenMod +OmniROM +Paranoid Android or other large projects or recognised dev say about that.

MSO Pops delivers a Gershwin treat
Style, elegance, foot-tapping rhythms and soaring melodies filled Uihlein Hall on Friday evening, thanks to a particularly fine Milwaukee Symphony Pops concert.
The orchestra, under the baton of guest conductor Jeff Tyzik, presented an evening of George Gershwin. It avoided the most often heard of Gershwin's pieces, in favor of lesser-known works, capping the evening with concert excerpts from his quintessentially American opera, "Porgy and Bess." »Read Full Article

WYOMISSING - Word arrived during the afternoon that the Detroit Tigers had made Prince Fielder an emperor - 9 years, $214 million, all hail. Weeks before that, it had been 10 years and $240 million from the Los Angeles Angels for Albert Pujols. Meanwhile, starting this season, Ryan Howard and his recovering Achilles' will begin his 5-year, $125 million deal.
All of which leaves Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. feeling, well, how?
"I'm kind of happy," he said. "Really happy. Because if I would have had to put an 8- or 9-year deal on Howard's deal right now, that would be a little disconcerting. Right now, we have Howard for the next 5 years. I kind of like that idea rather than having to do an 8- or 9- or 10-year deal.

I'm guessing he doesn't like the way it smells or something but my dog hates this bone. When I try to give it to him he barks at it and moves away. Bummer!

Comments about Puppybone - Regular:
Our dachshund puppy loves these bones and they last awhile. He will literally spend hours gnawing on these. The only downside is that they make his puppy bed and his crate bedding smell like chicken and the smell doesn't go away. Still worth it, but I find myself washing the bedding more than I would otherwise.

American Triumvirate
Sam Snead, Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan, and the Modern Age of Golf
By James Dodson
Alfred A. Knopf. 368 pp. $28.95
James Dodson set himself an ambitious agenda, like one of those grueling 36-hole Saturday finals in the olden days of pro golf, in creating American Triumvirate. It is basically a birth-to-death biography of three of the greatest golfers of all time, Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson, and Sam Snead, who were all born in 1912.
Like a linkster who fails to work out the kinks on the practice tee before setting out, Dodson hacks it up for the first few holes of his literary journey, going to absurd lengths and eyelid-weighting detail to justify his title. As if very many readers even care whether Hogan, Nelson, and Snead are analogous to the Great Triumvirate, the British turn of the (20th) century's dominant golf trio of Harry Vardon, James Braid, and John Henry Taylor.

Skateboarding is an art form that evolved from exploring a world covered in cement. Last year in March thanks to RedBull our search for undiscovered spots brought us to three cities in the largest Indian state Rajasthan ("Land of Kings"): New Dehli, the massive and insanely crowded capital; Jaipur, better known as "The Pink City", which once housed the royal family in the famously opulent City Palace; and, finally, Jodhpur, "The Blue City", located in the Thar Desert, made famous by Steve McCurry's extensive photographic work showcasing the city's vibrant narrow alleyways.
To say skateboarding in India was difficult is an understatement. In addition to some of the most neglected and dilapidated cement on the planet, the local population was so amused by the act of us riding a board that any attempt at filming a trick resulted in huge crowds of people, which were almost impossible to manage. To top it off, because of the thousands of flies and mosquitoes, and the unhygienic practices of the local populations, almost everyone in our group contracted a virus and fell ill. So why go? In fact, India's draw is in its repelling qualities. We came because no others wished to, in search of a unique experience shared by few.
The country of Georgia is situated centrally in southwestern Asia in the Caucasus mountains and shares its borders with Turkey, Armenia, Iran, Azerbaijan, and Russia. Nine hundred years ago Georgia, or Sakartvelo, the name Georgians have always used to refer to their country, was invaded by the Persians who called it "Gurgan, Land of the Wolves". Yet, despite invasions, occupations, and its proximity to other countries, it is the only country in the region that has its own alphabet. The oldest found inscriptions of this alphabet show no resemblance to any other language, which adds mystery to its origin and to the country itself.
In 1918 Georgia established itself as a nation. Three years later, it was invaded by the Soviet Red Army. With the government under Bolshevik control with direct ties to Moscow, Georgia became one of the many vassal states subservient to the growing Soviet Empire soon to be ruled over by Joseph Stalin, himself a Georgian, who eventually rose through the Bolshevik ranks and took over Lenin's position as the leader of the communist state. It was Stalin who would replace Lenin's form of socialism with a highly centralized command economy and shape the Soviet Union politically while exterminating and imprisoning millions of "enemies of the state" in his Gulag labor camps. And so, over the next 90 years, more than 900,000 Georgians, including the Georgian royal family, aristocrats, artists, actors, musicians, scientists, intellectuals— anyone suspected of being a member of bourgeoisie—were either executed or exiled.
Finally, on May 26, 1991, Georgia declared its independence from the Soviet Union and immediately thereafter was embroiled in a brutal and violent civil war that lasted until 1995. During that time ethnic violence, instigated and supported by Russia, erupted in South Ossetia and Abkhazia, and roughly 275,000 ethnic Georgians were either massacred or forced to flee from both those regions. The result was that South Ossetia and Abkhazia became breakaway states propped up and protected by Russia. To this day this stalemated situation continues to be a source of tension and dispute between Russia and Georgia.
In 2003, the incumbent Georgian government was caught manipulating the parliamentary elections. This gave rise to massive nationwide protests dubbed "The Rose Revolution", which led to the overthrow of the corrupt former government and the installation of the United National Movement Party as the new governing body. The new government instituted political democratization and market reforms that resulted in a steep decline in corruption, which is still rampant in other post-Soviet era countries.
Throughout the region, the Soviet rulers were masters at erasing history and culture, destroying priceless relics and architecture, while covering their satellite nations in a smothering economic socialist cement. In Georgia scars still remain from the long Soviet occupation and much of what remains is a decaying reminder of the past. Nearly abandoned resort towns, which were once bustling with well-connected Moscovites in search of sulphur baths and healing tinctures, now see a fraction of their visitors. Almost empty castle-facaded hotels, which in the past offered luxury spa services that even included blood and fecal analysis, stand crumbling in the beautiful Georgian countryside.
Yet, modernization and economic development, once only a dream, are beginning to take hold, and because of Georgia's natural beauty and the strength of its rich culture, the world is beginning to take notice. Just this year Georgia was rated by the New York Times as a top 50 destination for tourists. A country braced for change, ready to reconnect with its severed past while embracing a hopeful future.
When I visited Myanmar for the first time, it had been ruled by a corrupt military government, which secluded the country from the outside world for more that 50 years. Then I was transported to a forgotten era where a few aged cars ran on near empty streets lined by rows of dilapidated colonial buildings. The chug of aging generators could be heard as hotels and restaurants used them to augment the barely functioning electric grid. Yet, despite the dire economic condition in which the people found themselves, they beamed with happiness and smiles and shared a widespread, truly genuine appreciation and respect for life, each other, and foreign strangers such as me. It was a most beautiful and positive experience.
During these past few years Myanmar has transitioned from its seclusion and military rule into a "democracy". The result of this transition is a very surreal and sudden flood of foreigners, foreign investments and 21st century products into a culture that had, essentially, been frozen in time. I recently returned to Myanmar and found the streets now overflowing with modern cars with a flood of new hotels being built at incredible speed. Despite this abrupt transition into modernism, the sincere, beautiful people remain unchanged from the first encounter I had within the country years ago.

Union membership in 2007
January 28, 2008
In 2007, union members accounted for 12.1 percent of employed wage and salary workers, essentially unchanged from 12.0 percent in 2006. In 1983, the first year for which comparable union data are available, the union membership rate was 20.1 percent.
The union membership rate was higher for men (13.0 percent) than for women (11.1 percent) in 2007. The gap between their rates has narrowed considerably since 1983, when the rate for men was about 10 percentage points higher than the rate for women. The rates for both men and women declined between 1983 and 2007, but the rate for men declined much more rapidly.
Black workers were more likely to be union members (14.3 percent) than were whites (11.8 percent), Asians (10.9 percent) or Hispanics (9.8 percent).
These data on union membership are from the Current Population Survey. Unionization data are for wage and salary workers. Find out more in "Union Members in 2007," (PDF) (TXT) news release 08-0092.

Meet Spark Inc.
We won't waste your time with the typical ad agency "philosophy" section. You know, where the agency inevitably blathers on about their staff of truly rare individuals who, through some sort of near-divine fate, came together to pursue some kind of undying quest for breakthrough ideas.
Makes us roll our eyes, too.
At Spark, Inc., instead of trying to sell you on vague gobbeldy-gook, we'd rather give you the three definitive reasons why we're different than anyone else you might be considering.
1Our staff is made up of big agency talent with experience growing some of the world's most successful brands. That means clients get access to Fortune-500 level work without needing a Fortune-500 level budget. It also means you'll get research, strategy and execution of the utmost quality. Best of all, we proudly offer small agency dedication and service with none of the attitude you get from the big guys.
2 We don't make clients sign long-term contracts. Yes, we have lots of clients who continue to work with us month after month and year after year but it's only due to the results we deliver. Working without long-term contracts means we have to earn the next job each time. And we do. You should also know that absolutely no one on our staff plays golf or has sky box seats. We'll keep you as a client because the biggest perk in working with us is the results you'll get.
3 We offer all the services you'd typically find only at larger firms. This includes the latest 4K UHD video production, cutting-edge web development, graphic design, professional writing, photography, strategic consultation, media purchasing and more. Sure, we're not ten deep at every position but you'll get A-level talent for whatever service you need.
At Spark, we're about great. Great work, great results and great long-term relationships. We're young. We're hungry. And we're ready to outwork the agency your competition hired. If you're ready to create a spark, we'll make it happen!

Lone Star Radio: Playing More Ads and Less Music. That Worked Out Well.
As we pointed out in November, Clear Channel's experiment at KZPS-FM (92.5, also known as Lone Star Radio) ain't working out as the San Antonio-based media giant had hoped. In April, ZPS went commercial-free in hopes of playing more music per hour and attracting listeners jumping ship in favor of satellite radio and their iPods. There were still ads, only it was the jocks doing the awkwardly casual chit-chat pimping during the occasional break in the action.
But by October, ZPS was back to running spots. Said J.D. Freeman, Clear Channel's Dallas market manager, "There are a number of advertisers who use the radio station who feel like the recorded message is best way to get message across." So, strike one. Now comes the call of strike two: In the forthcoming issue of Billboard, not yet available online, Ken Tucker reports that KZPS ain't even playing much music when compared to its other twangy competitors in the market.
Reports Tucker:
During a recent seven-day period it was clear that not only was KZPS not the most music-intensive country station in its market, it was third among four Dallas country stations. Between Nov. 15 and Nov. 21, KTYS totaled 2,351 spins during the seven-day period, KPLX spun its records 2,159 times and KZPS played its songs 2,140 times. KSCS was fourth at 2,204.
Similarly, during one recent 10 a.m. hour, KZPS played 12 songs, while KTYS played 15. KPLX and KSCS each played 13, according to Nielsen BDS.

One of the most critically-acclaimed series of recent years, Friday Night Lights has earned a passionate following despite its low ratings. Winner of the Peabody Award and based on a successful nonfiction book and hit movie, Friday Night Lights follows the citizens of a struggling Texas town as they pin their hopes on the high school football team. In addition to the pressures placed on the team and its coach, Friday Night Lights has tackled social issues such as drug abuse, physical disability, racism, infidelity, and mental illness. Shot on location in Austin, the show employs a veritť visual style which features multiple-cameras and uses mostly available lighting; this verisimilitude is matched by the naturalistic dialogue and performances.
Friday Night Lights also serves as an effective case study of the promotional and programming challenges of broadcast television in the post-network era. Notwithstanding its print and filmic forerunners and the near-universal critical acclaim of its first season, the show struggled to find a broad audience on NBC. Initially framed as a sports drama, the show pivoted toward a focus on relationships in a bid to appeal to a female audience, downplaying football. After a critically lukewarm and strike-shortened second season, Friday Night Lights was renewed in a unique deal with DirecTV in which the satellite provider received exclusive first-run episodes (to be shown months later on broadcast television). The success of this arrangement may serve as a model of production for low-rated ďquality TVĒ in the future.
The volume seeks essays on individual episodes and characters as well as thematic pieces on themes identified above. The editor encourages work on the following issues as well as others from multiple disciplinary approaches:
ē Depiction of religion
ē Small-town life
ē Issues of masculinity
ē Teenage sexuality
ē Regionalism
ē Comparison of book and/or film incarnations
ē Visual style and mode of production
ē Marriage
ē Homosociality
ē Genres (sports movies / TV shows & teen drama)
ē Marketing Strategies Ė quality TV drama / teen soap
ē Role in the re-branding of DirecTV
ē Discourses of Quality TV
ē Representations of race & ethnicity
ē Critical reception
ē Multiple fan ďsave our showĒ campaigns
Abstracts should be 350-500 words and include a short biography. Final essays will be 5,000-7,000 words. Please send proposal and bio by November 17 via Word attachment to Jonathan Lupo or through post.

Rock Spring Collection of Japanese LiteratureMatsuo Basho (1644-94) is considered Japan's greatest haiku poet. Narrow Road to the Interior (Oku no Hosomichi) is his masterpiece. Ostensibly a chronological account of the poet's five-month journey in 1689 into the deep country north and west of the old capital, Edo, the work is in fact artful and carefully sculpted, rich in literary and Zen allusion and filled with great insights and vital
$9.99Basho, one of the greatest of Japanese poets and the master of haiku, was also a Buddhist monk and a life-long traveller. His poems combine 'karumi', or lightness of touch, with the Zen ideal of oneness with creation. Each poem evokes the natural world - the cherry blossom, the leaping frog, the summer moon or the winter snow - suggesting the smallness of human life in comparison to the vastness
$15.19Here is the most complete single-volume collection of the writings of one of the great luminaries of Asian literature. Basho (1644–1694)—who elevated the haiku to an art form of utter simplicity and intense spiritual beauty—is best known in the West as the author of Narrow Road to the Interior, a travel diary of linked prose and haiku that recounts his journey through the far northern provinces
$13.99Vivid new translations of Basho's popular haiku, in a selected format ideal for newcomers as well as fans long familiar with the Japanese master.Basho, the famously bohemian traveler through seventeenth-century Japan, is a poet attuned to the natural world as well as humble human doings; "Piles of quilts/ snow on distant mountains/ I watch both," he writes. His work captures both the profound
The Haiku of Basho, Buson, Issa, and ShikiKnown to many as the study of quiet stillness and introspection, Zen Buddhism distinguishes itself through brilliant flashes of insight and its terseness of expression. In River of Heaven these concepts and pillars lend themselves to an exploration of Haiku, one of the most delicate and interpretive poetic forms in the world. The haiku verse form, with its rigid structure and organic description
The Sound of Water: Haiku by Basho, Buson, Issa, and Other PoetsHere are more than two hundred of the best haiku of Japanese literature translated by one of America's premier poet-translators. The haiku is one of the most popular and widely recognized poetic forms in the world. In just three lines a great haiku presents a crystalline moment of image, emotion, and awareness. This illustrated collection includes haiku by the great masters from the seventeenth to
An Anthology of Poems and Poets from Basho to ShikiHarold G. Henderson was, from 1927 to 1929, the Assistant to the Curator of Far Eastern Art at the Metropolitan Musuem of Art. In 1930 he went to Japan, where he lived the following three years. On his return to this country he joined the faculty at Columbia University, where he taught Japanese and initiated a course in the history of Japanese art. He retired in 1955. His published works include
$5.95Known as the "Collection of Myriad Leaves," or the "Collection for a Myriad Ages," the Manyoshu is Japan's most significant early anthology of poetry. The poems date from the eighth century and earlier, and their simplicity and sincerity offer glimpses of a literary culture beginning to define itself.The Manyoshu is virtually silent on the topics of war and the martial spirit; explorations of the
108 Poems to Cultivate Awareness and Open Your HeartHaiku, the Japanese form of poetry written in just three lines, can be miraculous in its power to articulate the profundity of the simplest moment—and for that reason haiku can be a useful tool for bringing us to a heightened awareness of our lives. Here, the poet Patricia Donegan shares her experience of the haiku form as a way of insight that anyone can use to slow down and uncover the beauty
Peter Pauper Press Classic Haiku (Book 1)Step into a series of dazzling, funny, melancholy, and joyous moments with this collection of haiku masterworks. Beloved translator Peter Beilensons goal was twofold: to craft a book of haiku accessible to anyone, and to render his best guess at what the poets would have written in English. His translations preserve the sublime spirit of each verse, conjuring vivid visual and emotional impressions
Its Essential Nature and HistoryThis is the most authoritative and concise book on Japanese haiku available: what it is, how it developed, and how it is practiced in both Japanese and English. While many haiku collections are available to Western readers, few books combine both translated haiku with haiku written originally in English, along with an analysis of individual poems and of the haiku form itself.

We never thought we'd see the day Lauren Conrad cut her hair. She's had those signature LC long blonde waves since, oh, the beginning of time. And though she's gone a smidge blonder and a teeny bit shorter, she's stuck to that center-parted style and it's worked for her.
Splash News Online
But that all changed this week, as the star posted a photo to her Instagram which she captioned "Got my first haircut in years!" Layered, loose and shoulder-grazing, it definitely counts as a drastic change for the star who once said "I'll never go bob again!"
RELATED PHOTOS: Even more star hair changes!
It's possible she was just leaving her hair as-is for her wedding, waiting to make a big change once the photos were taken. Or perhaps she just talked into a hair change. Regardless, we couldn't let this momentous occasion go by without asking What do you think of Conrad's new do?

The last seven days of news from the region's life-sciences industry was a mix of messages involving expansion, succession, relocation, contraction, and conclusion.
Iroko Pharmaceuticals L.L.C. cemented its reputation as a company to watch Wednesday when it celebrated the opening of its new offices at the Navy Yard in South Philadelphia. Begun by veterans of the region's Big Pharma companies, Iroko has grown over the last five years to employ about 60 and could triple the number working in its new 56,412-square-foot building over the next few years.
Later that day, Endo Health Solutions Inc. threw an unexpected curveball when it announced that CEO David P. Holveck would retire by May. With no successor in hand and a cut in its 2012 earnings guidance, Endo saw its shares fall 3.4 percent on Thursday and 3.9 percent Friday.
