Obama administration to issue executive pay limits

February 4, 2009 · Leave a Comment

U.S. President Barack Obama will set a $500,000 a year cap on executive pay going forward for banks and other companies that take U.S. government funds to stabilize their businesses, an administration official said on Tuesday.

The president’s announcement, to be made on Wednesday, will kick off a long term effort to reform executive compensation rules, the official said.

I am glad that the President is doing something right. It was unforgiving act by by bailouts company to use taxpayers’ money to pay their bonuses and buy new airplanes for themselves.

Shame on them.

Before a jubilant crowd of more than a million, Barack Hussein Obama claimed his place in history as America’s first black president, summoning a dispirited nation to unite in hope against the “gathering clouds and raging storms” of war and economic woe.

On an extraordinary day in the life of America, people of all colors and ages waited for hours Tuesday in frigid temperatures to witness the moment as a young black man with a foreign-sounding name took command of a nation founded by slaveholders. It was a scene watched in fascination by many millions — perhaps billions — around the world.

“We gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord,” the nation’s 44th president said.

The presidency passed to Democrat Obama from Republican George W. Bush at the stroke of noon, marking one of democracy’s greatest gifts: the peaceful transfer of power.

Here is a video of Barack Obama 2009 Inauguration speech.

Jerry Yang decides he’s no longer the right CEO for YAHOO

November 18, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Jerry Yang and David Filo, the founders of Yahoo!This is the most unbelievable news of all time for the IT industry. Yahoo Inc. founder Jerry Yang has decided to step down as the CEO. WOW!

His emotional attachment is one of the reasons he balked at a $47.5 billion takeover offer from Microsoft Corp. six months ago. The same devotion finally led Yang to conclude he should step aside as chief executive, as the company seeks to bolster its depressed stock price and sagging earnings in an economic downturn that might prove even more wrenching than the dot-com bust of eight years ago.

Yang’s surrendering of the CEO reins, announced Monday, won’t occur until Yahoo finds a suitable replacement. The Sunnyvale-based company said it is interviewing candidates inside and outside Yahoo in a search led by its chairman, Roy Bostock, and the executive recruitment firm Heidrick & Struggles.

It didn’t take long for analysts to conclude Yang’s departure will clear the way for a major overhaul that could culminate in Yahoo’s sale to Microsoft — something Yang refused to do in May, to the great irritation of shareholders.

“We still believe Microsoft will eventually own Yahoo,” UBS analyst Benjamin Schachter wrote in a research note late Monday. “Jerry moving out of the CEO role may accelerate this.”

Microsoft declined to comment Monday. To read more click here….Yahoo Inc News
