HP's Hurd latest CEO to get lucrative exit payout
- Tweet
- Share this
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Mark Hurd is walking away from Hewlett-Packard Co under a cloud of scandal, but he won't go empty-handed: the former Silicon Valley CEO is coasting out on an estimated $34.6 million exit package.
Hurd is not the first CEO -- and likely will not be the last -- to rake in a huge payout despite leaving amidst controversy.
But while many corporate chiefs get pushed out for poor financial performance, HP's well-regarded leader quit following a stunning personal stumble. HP said he falsified thousands of dollars in expenses to hide his relationship with a female contractor.
"I don't believe it's always the norm to turn the CEO over on an expense-related violation," said David Becher, associate professor of finance at Drexel University.
He estimated just a quarter of CEOs found to have been indiscreet -- everything from substance abuse to sexual misconduct -- actually get pushed out.
"We're seeing more public scrutiny of firms and holding management to higher standards," he said. "Being a CEO is a risky job and it's pretty typical to have severance packages in place."
Hurd is getting $12.2 million in severance, plus millions more in vested options and restricted stock for a total of $34.6 million, according to an analysis by pay consultant James F. Reda & Associates LLC.
He would likely have left HP with a lot less had he been terminated "for cause."
Because he resigned instead of getting fired, the HP board likely had little choice but to provide him with exit payouts, said Charles Elson, a corporate governance expert and professor at the University of Delaware.
"It's contractual," Elson said. "There is nothing you can do about it. If there's an objection, it should not be now. It should have been at the time that the contract was entered into."
Firings are rare in the chief executive suite. They can occur if there have been violations of a company's code of conduct, such as sexual harassment, or if an executive is convicted of a serious crime.
Outside contractor Jodie Fisher had accused Hurd of sexually harassing her. The HP board said the internal probe found that Hurd did not violate HP's harassment policy but that he had misstated his expense reports.
Hurd's severance dwarfs by far the $20,000 or less in expenses that HP has accused the CEO of falsifying.
The executive's rapid departure -- which caught the tech and investment community by surprise -- has led experts to question the actual nature of any alleged indiscretions and whether the board, which has grappled with several high-profile scandals in past years, overreacted.
"The question that comes to mind is what else is there that we're not seeing to justify what HP's doing," said John Collard, chairman of Strategic Management Partners, a Maryland-based turnaround management and equity advisor firm.
"It seems odd that this instance is sufficient enough to cause the ouster," he said.
Hurd, who had been one of corporate America's best-paid executives, is not the first CEO to get millions in exit pay after resigning. His payout is relatively small compared with some other examples.
Merrill Lynch & Co Inc CEO Stanley O'Neal left in 2007 with about $161 million in retained stock awards and benefits after the company reported its biggest-ever quarterly loss.
Former Home Depot Inc CEO Robert Nardelli walked away from the retailer with about $210 million in exit pay, while ex-Pfizer Inc CEO Hank McKinnell got about $198 million upon departure. Investors complained that the payouts came after poor financial results under their tenures.
HP shareholders could potentially try to bring legal claims against the company's board over Hurd's departure package.
However, it could be difficult to bring a successful case because courts usually defer to the business judgment of board members, said Reed Kathrein, a partner at plaintiffs' firm Hagens Berman Sobol.
A lawsuit over former Walt Disney Co President Michael Ovitz's $130 million severance failed a few years ago, with a Delaware judge finding that the board did not breach its responsibilities in awarding Ovitz a hefty payout even though he only was on the job for 14 months.

Feature Reduction in Graph Analysis
Received: 10 July 2008 / Revised: 7 August 2008 / Accepted: 7 August 2008 / Published: 19 August 2008
Abstract: A common approach to improve medical image classification is to add more features to the classifiers; however, this increases the time required for preprocessing raw data and training the classifiers, and the increase in features is not always beneficial. The number of commonly used features in the literature for training of image feature classifiers is over 50. Existing algorithms for selecting a subset of available features for image analysis fail to adequately eliminate redundant features. This paper presents a new selection algorithm based on graph analysis of interactions among features and between features to classifier decision. A modification of path analysis is done by applying regression analysis, multiple logistic and posterior Bayesian inference in order to eliminate features that provide the same contributions. A database of 113 mammograms from the Mammographic Image Analysis Society was used in the experiments. Tested on two classifiers – ANN and logistic regression – cancer detection accuracy (true positive and false-positive rates) using a 13-feature set selected by our algorithm yielded substantially similar accuracy as using a 26-feature set selected by SFS and results using all 50-features. However, the 13-feature greatly reduced the amount of computation needed.

A Lower-Bound for the Maximin Redundancy in Pattern Coding

Abstract: We show that the maximin average redundancy in pattern coding is eventually larger than 1.84 (n/log n)1/3 for messages of length n. This improves recent results on pattern redundancy, although it does not fill the gap between known lower- and upper-bounds. The pattern of a string is obtained by replacing each symbol by the index of its first occurrence. The problem of pattern coding is of interest because strongly universal codes have been proved to exist for patterns while universal message coding is impossible for memoryless sources on an infinite alphabet. The proof uses fine combinatorial results on partitions with small summands.

I've read the news for 40+ years and one of the most important things for me is that the news have to be accurate. If some of you is curious may check the best source of daily news here http://www.beritahariann.org/
In the meantime, Schiller finished his memoir. He found out about the Pain & Gain film only last year, when one of his bosses brought it to his attention.
Originally the character played by Shalhoub was going to be named after him and he was supposed to have a cameo role as a detective, Schiller claims. But both fell through. "They kept me at a distance," he says.
From the trailer he's watched, Schiller says, Shalhoub's brash character is all wrong. "There is no resemblance to me at all," he says. "I was always a humble, family person."
As interest in the Sun Gym Gang case has gained traction, major news outlets have knocked on Schiller's door seeking to retell his story. He's been interviewed by ABC's 20/20 and CBS's 48 Hours, though he wasn't happy with either news report, which he feels portrayed him as a lowlife scoundrel who deserved his torture.
"To me, the story was about my survival," he says. "I don't understand why they want to make me look like a bad guy."
Name: Szuszanna Griga
Played by: Not depicted in the movie. Her brother, Frank, is part of Shalhoub's composite character
Key description: "Griga began to collect luxury automobiles, among them a $200,000 royal blue Vector, a rare, handmade, experimental sports car; a Dodge Stealth for running errands; and the Lamborghini Diablo... His girlfriends were beautiful, as sensual and sculpted as the cars he owned. He preferred babes, some of them strippers, and after he and Beatriz had parted ways, she introduced him to Krisztina Furton at Crazy Horse II, a Fort Lauderdale strip joint. The two quickly fell in love and became inseparable."
Real-life role: Griga's sister
Born in Berlin in 1961, Frank Griga emigrated to New York City in the mid-'80s, toiling as a car washer, then as a foreign-car mechanic. After moving to Miami in 1988, he landed a gig selling luxury rides at North Miami Beach's Prestige Imports. He yearned to own the Lotuses and Ferraris. Soon, he found his calling card, literally. He joined a group of investors in the 800- and 900-number markets and made a fortune on sex lines. In 1994 alone, Frank and his partners took in 3 million bucks.
"My brother left Communist Hungary when he was 21," Szuszanna said in a recent phone interview. "He built his business from the ground up. He was the personification of the American dream."
He bought himself a $700,000 waterfront mansion in Golden Beach and a yacht called Foreplay. And he began collecting his own exotic toys, like his $200,000 royal-blue Vector. Those expensive tastes led to his downfall, though. Doorbal's girlfriend, who knew Griga through her strip-club job, showed the hood a photo of the businessman with his Lambo. That's how the gang found its final mark.
On May 27, 1995, after several aborted attempts to snatch Griga, Lugo and Doorbal lured him and Furton to Shula's Steak House under the pretense of a business deal. The restaurant was closed, so the goons brought the couple back to Doorbal's apartment, where Frank and Krisztina spent their final moments in agonizing terror.
More than a week later, Szuszanna got a call from Dade County detectives confirming they'd found the hacked-up bodies of her brother and his girlfriend. Immediately she flew from Budapest. The 54-year-old karmic astrologer sat through every agonizing day of the Sun Gym Gang's four-month trial. She also testified at the sentencing hearings for Lugo and Doorbal.
"It's not a crime to enjoy life," Szuszanna says. "No one deserves to be murdered just because he drives nice cars and has a beautiful girlfriend."
Current status: Griga lives in Budapest, Hungary, occasionally returning to Aventura, where she owns a condo.
After Lugo and Doorbal were convicted, Szuszanna sold her sibling's opulent estate for $895,000. Frank's sister lives in Budapest with their 91-year-old mother but has returned for all of Lugo's and Doorbal's appeal hearings. "They continue coming up with nonsense to escape what's coming to them," Szuszanna grouses.
As far as the movie, Szuszanna is already panning it. She's appalled the movie is a dark comedy that portrays Lugo and Doorbal as antiheroes who go after a scumbag.
"To show these killers as a couple of funny, nice guys who made a couple of blunders is indecent," she says. "The movie is going to glorify what they did. It's ridiculous."
Name: Ed Du Bois
Played by: Ed Harris
Key description: "Ed Du Bois became a mere spectator to the grisly findings. He felt some relief that Lugo, Delgado, and Doorbal were in custody, but the institutional cynicism that thwarted a true investigation into Schiller's kidnapping filled him with ire. Why did Frank Griga and Krisztina Furton have to pay such a terrible price? Why hadn't the police taken him seriously? 'How does it feel,' he scornfully quizzed one investigator, 'to have blood on your hands?'"
Real-life role: Private investigator hired by Schiller to bust the Sun Gym Gang
On December 16, 1994, Ed Du Bois was busy working as the National Football League's South Florida investigator and security consultant. A third-generation P.I., Du Bois owns the oldest agency in Florida. As Du Bois worked that morning analyzing security for the upcoming Super Bowl at Joe Robbie Stadium, his phone rang. It was Schiller, desperate and terrified, recounting the gang's grisly deeds from a hospital bed.
I've read the news for 40+ years and one of the most important things for me is that the news have to be accurate. If some of you is curious may check the best source of daily news here http://www.beritahariann.org/
and just saying if you have read all the articles lugo and doorbal are reformed and luck is most likely to be released soon due to the fact there was a jury error in his trial but unless doorbal gets governors pardon he dead
What lugo did was wrong but can be justified by the fact that he was a brilliant psychopath who was a creature of habit that coraled others into a group for their own survival people like them are what makes people like us stronger and yet we lock them up and kill them or put them in mental institutions
That was before they figured out that he was doing the same damn thing his kid nappers did.Sorry but I have a hard time believing this meat head master planned this... Only a banker or cpa can come up with this shit. he was definitely the one behind this. somewhere along the line Someone said let's kill him and take all his money and not give him any of his cut. come on please his life insurance policy?
Lol see little boys and girls... This is what happens when you take juice! You become a retard.
I'd like to know what happened to that shitheel SID detective who thought the poor guy was full of it. That jackass has the blood of two people on his hands.
It's disgraceful that the two disgraceful animals are still on death row. They should be killed...today.
It pisses me off that someone made this movie into a comedy. This is something an amazing, serious crime thriller would be like, but now I get to see Michael Bay botch something that's incredibly morbid and still fresh in a lot of people's minds.
I read the whole story, and I'd like to dump a bucket of waste on the heads of the cops who laughed off Schiller's story. I'm sure they belong to a public sector employee union and have received their raises and promotions on schedule, though. Ed Petow, Jim Maier, Iris Deegan, Fred Taylor, Pete Cuccaro -- frickin' idiots. And was that bimbo Sabina deported? She was an illegal alien for chrissake.
I remember going there to apply for a job , very seedy place at the time and coundt trust lugos attitude and the test he was trying to sell me , so i left
I cant believe there glory fying these murderers assholes I met lugo many years ago in florida at the gym and doorbel I cant wiat til they get the injection
"As he left the courthouse, Schiller was arrested by federal agents on charges of orchestrating a Medicare billing scheme through his nutritional companies.
Current status: Employed as an accountant..."
Who would employ this one as an accountant ? Certainly isn't a CPA, not with a record for Medicare fraud.
i gotta see this movie, i remember sun gym some what and doorbal used to go to a niteclub in miami lakes back in the day
@jakobclark4 You are just as sick as they are. you should be locked up in a mental institution. Stupid people like you should not breed!
Man....you are really really brain dead. fIf that's how you really process information, then please please don't have any children. Because you literally are dumber than Lugo and his gang. Your mother must have taken really bad drugs while pregnant with you.
Then you should take the chair in his place. Because as dumb as you two are, we don't need either of you swimming in the gene pool. No what i be saying thug boy?
I agree, they should have been put down long time ago. The torture they put Mr. Schiller thru is unbelievable.
@lordofgamas Not to mention, they don't have all the correct facts or all of the people involved.
If he really did what they said he did, They prosecutor and police had much incentive to make him look bad. Evidence against Schiller was Delgado, they guy who insisted they murder him.
That was before they figured out that he was doing the same damn thing his kid nappers did.
Sorry but I have a hard time believing this meat head master planned this... Only a banker or cpa can come up with this shit. he was definitely the one behind this. somewhere along the line Someone said let's kill him and take all his money and not give him any of his cut. come on please is life insurance policy?
@jgcamp99 You can't judge you don't know the entire story. There are factual errors in this article
Why???? He chopped people heads, feet and hanfs off and barbecued them...thats sick
Why? I am sure you'd feel differently if a family member of yours was kidnapped and/or killed by lugo and his crew? Lugo definitely should not be released. LIFO should be executed.
I wish thoght the story all the way true...that foul had a wife and the other one didnt
@jpoppiti @mondaydecember Because if 1 source reports it, everything happened exactly as they told it. Let the witchhunt begin...
@starofhopeinc Oh, I think I got the story right, typical South Florida Medicare fraud.
@jpoppiti you are offending the animals. animals kill with the purpose of survival..this was for pleasure which only humans do...just look around,,,of curse that was sarcasm ..in general whoever is found guilty on a crime and sentenced to death should be done quickly not letting then live for a lot of more years..Death sentences should be executed immediately after being found guilty..
Damn right it does. They kidnapped three people, and killed two of them. They are animals and should be executed.
Do you not realize they used Delgado to frame Schiller because they had blood on their hands. They only gave Delgado 15 years, they created a story that Schiller was dirty as an excuse for not investigating. You don't understand how our system works
Correct, Delgado and Lugo were committing the Fraud, read the court docs

Hi Juliet I recently rec'd a recipe from America that says 1 cup 7-Up, 1 cup Bisquick Baking Mix. I would really love to try it. Could u offer me the South african equivalent, pls? Many thanx Rgds Koelsum
Hi there Koelsum, As far as I know 7up is a lemonade type drink similar to Sprite. As for the Bisquick baking mix is a pre-mixed flour and shortening mixture for making biscuits. Here is a quick substitution - 1 cup biscuit mix = 1 cup flour + 1 1/2 tsp baking powder + 1/2 tsp salt + 1 tbsp butter or margarine. Just out of interest, what was the recipe for? And do let us know how it turns out!
You can buy 7-up in SA
I had the same problem, no bisquick in South Africa. The recipe I have for 7 up American-style biscuits. The temperature is in Farenheit. 7 Up Biscuits 4 cups Bisquick 1 cup sour cream 1 cup 7-up 1/2 cup melted butter Mix bisquick, sour cream and 7 up. Dough will be very soft - don't worry. Knead and fold dough until coated with your baking mix. Pat dough out and cut biscuits using a round biscuit / cookie cutter. Melt butter in bottom of cookie sheet pan or 9x13 casserole dish. Place biscuits on top of melted butter and bake for 12-15 minutes or until brown at 425 degrees.

Our stay at the Westin St Louis was absolutely excellent- our room was large and comfortable (soundproof walls, darkening curtains, plush decadent robes, huge showers, truly heavenly beds, spotless everything, full service gym to rival the NYC Equinox!), the building is modern without being cold, and the staff was beyond accomodating.
I came down with the flu while there for the weekend (!) and the staff went out of their way to make me comfortable- made me eggs that aren't even on the dinner menu (all I was interested in eating), cleaned the room as late as 4pm when I'd finally be able to get up for a bit.

I just wanted to thank you for your fast service in shipping my order, it was here within two days. I have also found that your prices are lower than most of the craft stores in and around my town, which I am also thankful for. I am disabled and money is short--every penny counts. So far you have had anything I've needed and shopping online is much better than driving around from store to store, looking for a parking place and waiting in line to fight the traffic back home. Thanks!!!

maybe a good play although I'm long the stock so I hope it goes up.But I'm looking at the options in this stock and doesn't seem like a whole lot of call buying despite big drops this year. The lack of speculative interest in the options suggest these buyout rumors probably do not have substance. I hope I'm wrong though!

US 5437843 A Abstract An ozonizer for refreshing the room with clean air and lessening the green house effect, generally comprising of a base, a housing, a high voltage unit, an air compressor, and an ozone converter.
Claims(2) 1. An ozonizer having a base and a housing enclosing a high voltage unit, an air compressor and an ozone converter, wherein the ozone converter comprises:
a) an electrode member having an electrode pin extending from a center thereof and having a circular groove formed in a side thereof with an inner wall and an outer wall; b) a hollow inner pipe of electrically insulating material having a first inner end inserted into said circular groove of said electrode member against the inner wall thereof and a second inner end; c) a hollow outer pipe of electrically conductive material having a first outer end inserted into said circular groove of said electrode member against the outer wall, thereby making the outer pipe and the inner pipe spaced apart to form a circular air passage therebetween, said outer pipe further comprising a second outer end, an air inlet and an air outlet laterally extending therefrom, and spiral radiating fins wound round a surface thereof; d) an electrode screen located in said inner pipe having an end thereof electrically connected to said electrode pin of said electrode member; e) a coupler having an exhaust hole at a center thereof and a stop groove with inner and outer walls, the coupler connected to the second inner end and the second outer end such that said inner end and said outer end are respectively inserted against the inner and outer walls thereof; f) air pipe means connecting an outlet of the air compressor to the air inlet of the outer pipe; g) a vacuum source connected to the exhaust hole of said coupler; wherein a high voltage electric discharge by said electrode screen will cause a static electric arc to reach said outer pipe through said inner pipe when air flows in said circular air passage from said air inlet of said outer pipe, thus producing ozone in said air passage which is exhausted through said outlet, during which a vacuum is created within the inner pipe during supply of air to the circular air passage. 2. An ozonizer as in claim 1 comprising a plurality of ozone converters and having an air outlet of at least one ozone converter connected with an air inlet of at least one other ozone converter.
Description The present invention relates to an ozonizer, and more particularly to an ozonizer of new structure. In recent years, excess consumption of chloroflurocarbons (CFC) and heavy emission of nitrogen oxides by air planes have made the ozone layer thinner and thinner. If the ozone layer gets damaged, human beings would not be protected from being hurt by ultraviolet rays, and green house effect would be increased to destroy the ecological balance in the earth. The present invention has been accomplished under the aforesaid circumstance. It is the main object of the present invention to provide an ozonizer from which the ozone produced can react on and decompose the contaminants in the air, thus purifying the air to refresh the room with clean air and prevent the ozone layer from being destroyed. It is another object of the present invention to provide an ozonizer which can produce ozone to help keep out the ultraviolet rays and lessen the green house effect. It is another object of the present invention to provide an ozonizer which use an electrode screen as the positive pole to give a powerful electric discharge for producing higher concentration of ozone. It is still another object of the present invention to provide an ozonizer which can be produced in large quantity at low cost. It is another object of the present invention to provide an ozonizer in which the ozone converter thereof can be connected with another converter or more in series until the required ozone concentration has been duly obtained. FIG. 1 is an exploded view of an embodiment according to the present invention; FIG. 2 is a perspective view of an ozone converter according to the present invention; FIG. 3 is a sectional view of an ozone converter according to the present invention; FIG. 4 is a circuit diagram according to the present invention; and FIG. 5 is a piping diagram according to the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, an ozonizer in accordance with the present invention is generally comprised of a base 1, a housing 2, a high voltage unit 3, an air compressor 4, and an ozone converter 5. The base 1 is fitted to the housing 2 at the bottom for securing the high voltage unit 3 and air compressor 4 thereon. Both ends of ozone converter 5 are respectively connected to the high voltage unit 3 and air compressor 3 to produce ozone for refreshing the room with clean air. Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the ozone converter 5 is comprised of an electrode member 51, an inner pipe 52, an outer pipe 53, an electrode screen 54, and a coupler 55, wherein the electrode member 51 has an electrode pin 512 extended from the center thereof for electrically connecting to the high voltage unit 3 (see the circuit diagram as shown in FIG. 4), and a circular groove 511 at one side thereof to allow for insertion of the inner pipe 52 made of insulating materials such as porcelain, quartz, etc. and the conductive outer pipe 53 to be against the inner and outer walls of the circular groove 511, thus making the outer wall of the inner pipe 52 and the inner wall of the outer pipe 53 to form a circular air passage 56'. The outer pipe 53 also has an air inlet 531 and an air outlet 531' laterally extended therefrom, and spiral radiating fins wound round the surface thereof. The electrode screen 54 is retained in the inner pipe 52 with one end electrically connecting to the electrode pin 512 of the electrode member 51 for high voltage connection. The coupler 55 is provided with an exhaust hole 552 at the center for connecting an exhaust pipe 6 and a one-way valve 61 to an air pipe 43 which connects with the air compressor 4, and a stop groove 552 corresponding to the circular groove 511 of the electrode member 51 to allow for insertion of the inner pipe 52 and outer pipe 53 to be against its inner and outer walls, respectively. While the electrode screen 52 of the ozone converter 5 according to the present invention has a high voltage connection by means of the high voltage unit 3, the air produced from the air compressor 4 will first pass through a filter 41 for dewatering and oil removing, then be controlled by a flowmeter 42 to flow into the air inlet 531 through the air pipe 43, making the circular air passage 56 between the inner pipe 52 and the outer pipe 53 to be full of air. After an electric discharge by the electrode screen 54, static electric arc reaches the outer pipe 53 through the inner pipe 52 to produce ozone in the circular air passage 56. Then the ozone is let out from the air outlet 531' at the opposite end of the outer pipe 53 to refresh the room and lessen the green house effect. Further, the heat thus produced can be rapidly sent out by the radiating fins 532, and there are fans 11 which can help enhance the radiating effect. As the air or a little of ozone in the inner pipe 52 will be drawn from the exhaust hole 552 of the coupler 55 to the air pipe 43 through the exhaust pipe 6 and one-way valve 61, causing the inner pipe 52 to be almost vacuum, the inner pipe 52 is insulated from the rising temperature resulted from the electric connection of the electrode screen 54, thus enjoying a longer service life. The ozone converter 5 according to the present invention is used for producing ozone. The air outlet 531' of one ozone converter 5 can be connected with the air inlet 531 of another ozone converter 5. Such connection can be repeated until the required ozone concentration has been duly obtained. Patent Citations

Apple iPhone, BlackBerry Usage Debated at JPMorgan Chase
Apple iPhone, BlackBerry Usage Debated at JPMorgan Chase
Nathan Eddy
Posted 2010-09-13
As BlackBerry smartphone competitors Apple and Google close in, JPMorgan Chase considers alternative mobile e-mail devices.
Research In Motion, maker of the business-friendly line of BlackBerry smartphone devices, may soon have to start making even more room for competitor Apple and its iPhone, according to a Bloomberg
. Banking giant JPMorgan Chase & Co. is testing Apple devices for employees who may want to use them for e-mailing, providing an alternative to BlackBerry devices for the first time, according to two unnamed sources quoted in the article. Google Android-based devices are also reportedly under consideration. "This phenomenon is very new, and we expect it to put increased pressure on RIM's performance," Pierre Ferragu, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein, told Bloomberg, noting a survey the company did in August that found cost savings and employee preference represented the two biggest factors companies considered when making the switch. "BlackBerry isn't the only alternative to offer employees mobile e-mail."
Bloomberg also reported Swiss bank USB AG is also considering allowing employees to use the iPhone. Company spokesman Jean-Raphael Fontannaz told the magazine the decision is likely to take some time to make. "There are certainly quite a few employees that have private iPhones, and as a bank we have to ask ourselves if that could be an option for us," he said.
As the smartphone wars heat up again, Microsoft is also jumping into the fray with a bizarre
PR stunt
it pulled ahead of the launch of Windows Phone 7, its mobile OS. Some employees on the company headquarters' campus held a mock funeral for the iPhone and BlackBerry, complete with procession, bagpipes, dancing to Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and Darth Vader on a motorcycle. Windows Phone 7 is reportedly set to launch Oct. 11. According to a Gartner research report, however, Android-powered smartphones are the ones to watch: Android-based devices could outnumber BlackBerry smartphones and iPhones by the end of 2010, and match Symbian sooner than expected, the report projected. The worldwide mobile operating system market will be dominated by Symbian and Android, as the two OSes will account for 59.8 percent of mobile OS sales by 2014. "The worldwide mobile OS market is dominated by four players: Symbian, Android, Research In Motion and iOS," said Roberta Cozza, principal research analyst at Gartner. "Launches of updated operating systems-such as Apple iOS 4, BlackBerry OS 6, Symbian 3 and Symbian 4, and Windows Phone 7-will help maintain strong growth in smartphones in 2H10 and 2011 and spur innovation. However, we believe that market share in the OS space will consolidate around a few key OS providers that have the most support from CSPs and developers and strong brand awareness with consumer and enterprise customers."
Gartner also predicted that by 2014 open-source platforms will capture more than 60 percent of the market for smartphones. Single-source platforms, such as Apple's iOS and RIM's OS, will increase in unit terms, but their growth rate will be below market average and not enough to sustain share increase. Windows Phone will be relegated to sixth place behind MeeGo in Gartner's worldwide OS ranking by 2014.

Solitario Secures US$5.0 Million Credit Facility Agreement With RMB Australia Holdings
Solitario Exploration & Royalty Corp. ("Solitario;" NYSE MKT: XPL; TSX: SLR) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a US$5.0 million secured credit facility agreement (the "Facility") with RMB Australia Holdings Limited ("RMB"). The use of proceeds from the Facility will be to advance Solitario's Mt. Hamilton gold project in Nevada and for general corporate purposes.
Chris Herald, President and CEO of Solitario, stated: "This Facility strengthens Solitario's financial position to advance the Mt. Hamilton project through permitting to construction. We are also pleased that another quality financial institution recognized the robust economics of the Mt. Hamilton project. We look forward to building a strong relationship with RMB as the project advances."
Funds drawn on the Facility will bear interest at the rate of the 90-day LIBOR rate plus 5%. The current applicable 90-day LIBOR rate is approximately 0.44%. The Facility has a 36-month term with interest paid quarterly. In connection with the Facility, Solitario paid a 5.0% upfront fee and issued RMB 1,624,748 warrants, each warrant entitling RMB to purchase one common share of Solitario at an exercise price of US$1.5387 per share (a 23% premium to the prior close) for the three-year period after their issuance. The Facility is secured by a pledge of Solitario's 80% interest in the Mt. Hamilton joint venture and by a general security interest in most of Solitario's remaining assets. The facility agreement has no prepayment penalty.
About Mount Hamilton
Solitario released a feasibility study on the Centennial gold-silver deposit in February 2012 showing favorable economics for an open pit operation with heap leach extraction. Once in operation, the mine is expected to produce 48,000 ounces of gold and 330,000 ounces of silver annually for eight years (or 54,000 gold-equivalent ounces per year at a 55:1 silver to gold ratio). The project has excellent potential to add additional resources and extend the mine life. Currently three drill rigs are operating on the project in the Seligman mineralized area. Solitario owns an 80% interest in the project and is the project manager.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Minimum Stay | nights |
2 Lovely villas surrounded by nature and near the sea, south facing properties and sun all day. Quiet area, 5 minutes from the beach of Cala Pi, supermarket, bars and restaurants. 10 minutes from the town of Llucmajor, 25 minutes from the airport and 30 from the center of Palma, Less than 15 minutes there are golf courses, marinas, the stunning beach of Estrenc and a water park for the younger.
Ideally located for unwinding and relaxing where you can enjoy the sea, cycling, hiking, tennis and the privacy of the garden its pool and a barbecue for those hot summer evenings.
Also available in Plaza Major historical center of Palma beautiful full of charm apartment:
We had a lovely stay in the villa. The house was very clean when we arrived and everything you need is in there. We had two little kids with us and there were two cribs and a dining chair for them. Alfredo was very kind and helpful when we needed anything. The pool was cleaned several times during our stay.
A car is a neccessity, although you can get basic things (even diapers) from the Cala Pi centre (2km walk) which has two little shops, restaurants and the beach is also there. We discovered some very beautiful sights onto the sea while walking around Cala Pi, they were breathtaking!
I recommend this property to people who like privacy and/or have children, really lovely place!
I have rented this villa this summer for my parents and sister's familly for 10 days, I already own a place in Cala Pi, and wanted a villa large enough to accomodate everyone so I can show them the beauty of the area and the surroundings.
I have booked this Villa earlier this year online, and I was a little bit apprehensive as I had no other choices, seeing that the remaining villas available were all over my budget.
The renting process was very straight forward, no hidden charges, prompt response from the owner everytime I emailed him, which made me feel at ease.
Where to start?, the villa is very spacious, 4 double bedrooms upstairs, 2 bathrooms upstairs, and a WC downstairs, a garage, utility room, nice size and super clean pool, plenty of storage space everywhere, well equipped kitchen.. etc..
The extras we havent expected were all there, plenty of good quality towels, beach towels, pool towels, hair dryer, iron, moskitos plugs, kitchen condiments, DVDs, cleaning products etc etc, and the villa was spottless.
The area of Cala Pi is very picturesque, you can drive to the closest beach being Cala Pi Playa " about 5 min drive" , or you can walk, about 20min walk.
All restaurants and bars are located in Cala Pi near the beach, and the walk is very pleasent and the views are spectacular at any time of the day.
Other close by beaches / main points of interest, are:
Es Trenc beach " about 20 min drive"
Colonia Saint Jordie beach " about 25 min drive"
Airport: 30min
Palma centre: 35-40min
Be aware that if you choose this part of the island, is because you want to be away from the noisy tourist spots, people from palma would travel all the way to get such peace and beauty, and they would travel over an hour to reach the beaches of es Trenc etc when really its on your door steps.
For kids: there are a few activities organised at the Hotel Cala Pi club, daily, and at the week end, 5 min walk from the villa, the area organises a free party for everyone at the local sports field, that week they had a big disco with a foam party, and the little ones, and in fact the adults were all there!!
Down Side:
I honestly can not fault the villa, nor the area, just be aware that a car is an abslute must especially as there is no major supermarket in Cala Pi, and the nearest one would be LLucmajor.
Would I recommand this villa? absolutely yes.
This is a lovely house - exceptionally clean, with everything you would need during your stay. Alfredo is very helpful and made sure we had an enjoyable stay. The pool was clean and the grass area was great for the children to run around on (with good levels of shade).
The walk to Cala Pi was not very picturesque (along roads) and with 4 children (2 of which were 3) it was just too far to walk in and out. This wasn't too much of a problem as we had hired cars (which were an absolute necessity) but it was a shame as we would have liked a nice walk in the morning or evenings.
Villa would benefit from air conditioning in the bedrooms
I could warmly recommend this rental to families with or without children, couples or anyone else who would like to stay a bit off the track. (Car is necessary.) The house was spottless clean, as the owner promised, when we arrived, and everything is new and in function. The house has everything you need, and the terrace and garden are great for lazy afternoons.
The lockable fence around the property makes the house great for families with children, because then you know that your children would not be running out in the street when your not watching them.
I would happily recommend this house.
Ein wunderbarer Platz für einen Familienurlaub! Haus, Innenausstattung, Pool, Betreuung, alles bestens, es gab rein gar nichts zu kritisieren. Ruhige Lage (dreimal am Tag ein Auto, ab und zu ein bellender Hund), gepflegtes Anwesen mit Alarmanlage und Safe. Der Pool blitzsauber, sehr gepflegt. Wonzimmer und Küche gut eingerichtet. Persönliche Übergabe und gesamte Abwicklung sehr angenehm. Absolut zu empfehlen! Muchas gracias y asta pronto!
Vermieter Alfredo hat uns nicht nur mit guten Tipps für Einkaufen & Restaurants versorgt - sondern hat das Haus mit vielen nützlichen Details ausgestattet (diverse Küchengeräte / Wasserspielzeug / Griller / Fön / viele Bade- und Handtücher, etc).
Das Haus ist sehr ruhig gelegen und sehr sauber. Ausstattung und Zimmer wie beschrieben. Nach Cala Pi (tolle Bucht!!) sind es nur 3 Autominuten. Über die herrliche Küstenstrasse können alle Ausflugsziele sehr gut erreicht werden. Tolles Haus - va wenn man Ausflüge macht und die Insel erkunden möchte.
Es war ein perfekter Urlaub ! Auto erforderlich.

When thirty-two-year-old woodworker and designer Jacqueline Callaghan arrives in the small village of Sycamore on a windswept island, she has just sold her apartment in the city, lost her job, left her boyfriend, and buried her grandmother. She?s ready to begin a new life in her grandmother?s old cottage in this picturesque village of lush gardens and wild waterfront.
Jackie opens her own studio and gallery and finds that life is perfect ? except for the bills. In a desperate attempt to save the life she now loves, Jackie organizes a studio tour, rallying together the island?s many artists and crafts people, in hopes of bringing more visitors to the island.
The idea is popular, but Jackie is almost defeated. How to persuade these fiercely independent artists to work together without disrupting the delicate balance of their daily lives?
The whole village falls into chaos as artistic personalities clash and long-hidden skeletons come out of the closet. Secret trysts, nude portraits, love and inconsolable broken hearts, mistaken death, and resurrection slowly unravel Jackie?s carefully crafted tour plans.

Although nothing comes close to the kallamanis and neelams that I ate 30 years back, I'm happy with my banganapallis, malgovas and imam pasands today.
The house smells of mangoes... banganapalli, malgova and imam pasand are sitting side by side, on a steel tray. Every time I walk past them, I roll the fruits; that way, I'm hoping they will ripen evenly. Every evening, I check the fruits, to sort the ripe from the raw... and anything that's squishy or soft is immediately dunked into water, and peeled for an after-dinner dessert.
Summer has always been about mangoes; when I was little, summer holidays were spent in a teensy village near Trichy. For some reason, the varieties that were popular in Chennai (then Madras) were unheard of there. Only naatuka (country fruits) were freely available, and were brought home in cane baskets, often straight from the trees. The ladies who sold it, however, were no less argumentative than their city counterparts. But finally they would relent, and bring down their price a notch, and sometimes even leave a small fruit or two as a token gift. As soon as the fruits were bought in, and left in the pooja-room - as an offering, and also as safe-keeping from monkeys - we - the kids - would drop hints on how hungry we are. But no mangoes were given to us until lunch was over; and only after we had eaten could we take away the fruits to the terrace or verandah and eat them.
I remember eating three varieties. There was a mango called kallamani (my grand-mother called it thirugukaachi) and it was curved on one end, like a parrot's beak. The flesh was sweet and fragrant, but the mango was most interesting because you could make a cut in the middle - all the way around - and twist off one half from the other! It was a magical experience - we could then scoop out the flesh with our fingers and eat it, with juice running down our elbows; or we could be all posh and dig it out with a spoon. Kallamani had a thick skin, so even after we ate it, the cups retained their shape. The other mangoes we got there were rumani, its skin as thin as kallamani's was thick, and neelam. Rumani - available later in the season - was small and round, and we could peel off the skin with our teeth; then, we would hold the entire, orange ball in our hands and admire it from all sides before eating it.
Neelam was the trickiest mango - it was the sweetest and most exotically coloured fruit (the flesh was a bright orange), and it almost always had beetles inside. And since we never knew which fruit had the beetles ('vandu' as we called it), eating it was fraught with suspense. What if one bit into the beetle? How did they get inside the fruit? How did they breathe? Neelams always raised the same questions as we ate them, and it was fascinating (in a morbid way, of course) to watch the squat, black insect crawl out of that lovely orange flesh...
All this became a memory, a very distant one, when we moved abroad. It felt tragic when April came but mangoes didn't. Actually, that's not true - there were mangoes available, round the year, but they tasted insipid. The first time I bought some, I didn't know that. I was actually thrilled to find some displayed prominently in the grocery store, with little stickers that said 'Caribbean'. So I bought home three - one for each of us. They were large - as big as a good sized coconut - and green. I thought they would ripen and turn yellow. So I put it on a tray and left it on the dining table.
I waited for a week, turning it over this way and that. The mangoes stayed green; the skin did not dimple, it did not go soft. The husband asked, with mock concern, if it was made of wax; the daughter said she was getting impatient and could we please cut one of them. So we did. It was not made of wax but it tasted weird; it was like biting into a pale orange and fleshy fruit which tasted of nothing. We were disappointed and I promised I wouldn't buy any more.
But I still had two large 'mangoes' left. Since the family refused to 'pretend' they were mangoes and eat them, I scoured the web for recipes, and found one for mango rice. The recipe was a hit, and from then, the only time we bought the mangoes was to make it into mango rice.
Next, we tried the Indian Stores; they sold mangoes by the box, mostly Alphonso. It was very exciting, the first time we bought a cardboard box home. It was packaged very nicely, with pictures of ripe alphonso mangoes printed on it. The box also had 'breathing holes' for the mangoes and the fruits were placed on a bed of shredded paper. We waited for two days - as the shopkeeper instructed us - and then unpacked the box. It was a little disappointing: the fruits were runts, and while they tasted sweet, they lacked the burst of flavour that we longed for. We spoke fondly of the mangoes of childhood, and like all memories that become sweeter with time and distance, the mangoes of my childhood too became sweeter than condensed milk.
And so, every year, when we came home during the daughter's summer vacation (mid-July) we ate the last fruits of the season. But for the last couple of years, April and May have been mango months. We buy enough to make up for the lost years; and the house - as soon as we open the door - smells wonderfully fruity. Of course, nothing comes close to the kallamanis and neelams that I ate 30 years back, but I'm happy with my banganapallis, malgovas and imam pasands. Anything, as long as it's not a mango that has flown many thousand miles, only to be grated and ground and cooked with rice and salt.
