Steve Jobs Resigns

Steve Jobs has resigned from his role as CEO of Apple. In a major bombshell, Jobs drafted a letter to the Board of Directors (which we have posted after the break) explaining that the time has come where he is no longer able to meet his duties and expectations as Apple CEO. It's truly the end of an era, as many see Apple and Steve Jobs as an inseparable pair. However, recent health problems have led to Jobs taking a few leaves of absence, most recently this past January. Many speculated that he wouldn't return from this latest leave, and now it has come true.

Steve Jobs has recommended that Tim Cook, who has been acting as CEO in his absence, be named as his permanent successor. Steve would like to act as Chairman of the Board, director, and Apple employee.

Anna Nicole Smith Dead at Age 39

Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: News,

Anna Nicole Smith Soon after news broke that Anna Nicole Smith had collapsed in a Florida hotel, it was reported that the tabloid favorite had died. Smith, who was born Vickie Lynn Hogan, first became famous for her Guess jeans ads and Playboy centerfold spread. Later, she provided a steady stream of tabloid material when she married an 89-year-old oil tycoon. She remained in the spotlight as the legal battle for his fortune continued. At one point, she had her own reality show on E! and continued to appear in tabloids for her growing waistline. The recent death of her 20-year-old son, birth of her new daughter, and question over the father of her child all contributed a great deal of stress to the bubbly blond. Just days ago, it was announced that Smith would be sued for her role as spokeswoman for the TrimSpa weight-loss supplement. She was found in her hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel this afternoon, and passed away shortly thereafter. The cause of death is under investigation, with an autopsy scheduled for Friday.
