In an effort to focus on the future and please shareholders, @placeholder is shedding what it sees as obsolete technologies. | (CNN) -- This week's announcement that Yahoo is hiring away Google executive Marissa Mayer as its latest CEO has been met by both Wall Street and the tech industry with yawns or worse. Yawners cite the fact that Yahoo -- by all measures, a company that has been in decline for some time -- has hired five CEOs in as many years. The fanfare with which they are brought in is matched only by the size of the failure they leave in their wake. Those who are excited about the new appointment seem to care less about what it means for Yahoo or the Internet than the fact that Mayer is a woman, pregnant, and a former girlfriend of Google chief Larry Page.

It is a sprawling cross section of 10 media markets and one of the most diverse states in the nation, containing communities of voters across the political spectrum. But we talk about politics in shorthand, and many stereotypes endure long after they are bypassed by reality. So here are three stubborn myths about the Sunshine State to think about as Floridians go the polls on Tuesday. 1) It's senior-citizen central: This stereotype started in the post-war boom, as legions of grandparents sought out the warmth of Florida to ease their aching bones. The state came to be seen as a land of early-bird specials, bad drivers and retirement communities punctuated by amusement parks -- "God's waiting room."

He said he planned on meeting with the jilted @placeholder mayor and with Fort Lee residents to apologize directly to them. | (CNN) -- There were always three possible scenarios for New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Bridgegate: One, that he was explicitly involved in the shutting down of three lanes feeding the George Washington Bridge in Fort Lee, New Jersey, as political retribution against a no-name mayor who didn't endorse him in an election Christie ran away with. Two, that he was marginally involved, in that he told staffers to "take care of" the problem mayor but wasn't specific about the actions to take. And three, that he wasn't involved at all; that an appointee at the Port Authority and staffers in his office cooked this up unbeknownst to him, didn't tell him and repeatedly lied to him about their involvement until e-mails proved otherwise.

Moyes, who turns 51 on Friday, signed a six-year-deal with English football's most successful club last May, when the outgoing @placeholder personally endorsed his appointment. | (CNN) -- Manchester United finally lost patience with manager David Moyes Tuesday after a disastrous first season in charge of the English Premier League champions. "Manchester United announces that David Moyes has left the club," said the English Premier League team in a statement on the club's official Twitter feed. "The club would like to place on record its thanks for the hard work, honesty and integrity he brought to the role." Moyes succeeded Alex Ferguson last May but has overseen a lackluster campaign, with the club lying seventh in the table having amassed 57 points from 34 games. United slipped to an 11th league defeat this season against the Scot's former club Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday -- a result that finally ended any mathematical chance of participating in next season's Champions League.

The process helped @placeholder work through the times when she said "I thought my life had come to end." | LONDON, England (CNN) -- Hope was 14 years old when her uncle raped her. Betty Makoni founded the Girl Child Network to help Zimbabwe's young sexual abuse victims. "He trapped me to the ground and covered my mouth with his hand," said the 18-year-old from Zimbabwe. "He threatened to kill me if I ever told anybody." So, she kept quiet. "After a while people around the villages started saying that I looked pregnant," she said. Hope was not only pregnant, but her uncle had infected her with HIV. Like many young girls in Zimbabwe, Hope was the victim of a widely held belief that if a man with HIV or AIDS rapes a virgin he will be cured of his disease. This so-called virgin myth, perpetuated by Zimbabwe's traditional healers, has led to the rape of hundreds of girls, according to UNICEF. Some of those victims are too young to walk, much less protect themselves.

Among other things, the order requires the Food and Drug Administration to increase its reporting of possible shortages of certain prescription drugs, while also speeding up regulatory reviews of new drug manufacturing sites, drug suppliers and manufacturing changes. The Justice Department will be tasked with examining whether specific drug shortages are tied to an intentional stockpiling of medications designed to raise prices.

Travelers aboard the @placeholder's two-week Trans-Siberian expedition are in for a wild ride. | (Departures) -- In 1829, Englishman George Stephenson brought to life the first steam-powered locomotive — named Rocket — and marked the birth of train travel. Fast-forward 183 years, and today's jet-setting lives are lived at breakneck speed. One can climb aboard a Gulfstream G550 jet in Miami and make it to Seoul, South Korea, in a bit less than 15 hours for an impromptu business meeting. But when it comes to luxury train travel, finding the fastest route between two points is not the goal. It is more about settling back in one's seat and savoring the experience, one station at a time.

Billions of dollars are spent on political advertisements in @placeholder. | By Simon Walters And Brendan Carlin PUBLISHED: 19:31 EST, 20 April 2013 | UPDATED: 05:46 EST, 24 April 2013 Britain is in danger of being forced by European judges to allow US-style political advertisements to be shown on television. The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) is due to rule tomorrow on a test case brought by a British-based animal rights group. Insiders fear the verdict will go against the Government, meaning any political group can buy time on British television. The European Court of Human rights will rule on whether it's right to ban an advert by an animal rights group about the abuse of apes.

@placeholder was named in the original indictment but charges against him were later dropped. | Bacliff, Texas (CNN) -- Sitting on their front porch in this Houston suburb, Edmond Demiraj and his family seem the picture of a contented family. But the Department of Justice now wants to upend the family: threatening to deport his wife and 19-year-old son back to their native Albania, even though he says federal prosecutors a decade ago promised him help and a Green Card in exchange for Edmond's promised testimony in a human smuggling case against a fellow Albanian immigrant. For the Demiraj family, they believe it will mean great harm, even death, for those deported. A decade ago, Edmond Demiraj (pronounced: dem-EAR-eye) was himself an illegal immigrant. He told CNN he had walked across the U.S. border from Mexico to Brownsville, Texas without any paperwork. He found work as a painter, he says, with a fellow Albanian named Bill Bedini.

As a Republican who recognizes President Obama's great skill as campaigner-in-chief, I'm shocked he has handled the issue so poorly.

Still, they all believe that Jackie experienced something "horrific" that night, in the words of one, and we do know that Jackie stands by her story.

Egyptian officials have called it a "legitimate judicial process," the organization said, but "the continued assault on @placeholder, German and Egyptian civil society is not a 'legitimate judicial process.' | Cairo (CNN) -- Forty-three people, including 19 Americans, face prosecution in an Egyptian criminal court on charges of illegal foreign funding as part of an ongoing crackdown on nongovernmental organizations, a prosecution spokesman said Sunday. Those referred to court also include five Serbs, two Germans and three Arabs, said Adel Saeed, spokesman for the general prosecutor. The remaining people are Egyptian, he said.

The senior aide said that Romney plans to use the third and final televised debate, in Boca Raton, Florida, to highlight Obama's willingness to meet the world's worst dictators and the dangers of handing a 'blank check' to @placeholder in the form of a second term. | By Toby Harnden In Boca Raton, Florida Mitt Romney will attack President Barack Obama for his 'naive' intention to meet President Ahmadinejad of Iran and warn Americans that the President will hold talks with U.S. adversaries if he is re-elected, according to a senior Romney aide. In July 2007, Obama answered a debate question about whether he would meet 'without precondition' in the first year of his administration 'the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea'. Obama responded: 'I would.' He did not renounce this during the rest of the 2008 campaign. No such talks have ever happened but a weekend report in the 'New York Times' - denied by the White House - that the U.S. has held secret talks with Iran as a prelude to formal negotiations after the election makes Obama freshly vulnerable on the topic, the Romney campaign believes.

The issue of immunity for a sitting president has never been resolved, and can only be dealt with by the International Court of Justice, according to Sir Geoffrey Nice and Rodney Dixon. "There is a provision in the ICC (International Criminal Court) charter that states should observe their obligations to other states in terms of immunity even where there is an indictment by the ICC," Nice told reporters late Saturday at the AU summit, held just outside the Ugandan capital of Kampala.

It unsettles me to think that the reason so much of the outpouring of support for Charlie Hebdo is driven not just by the violence suffered or a defense of free speech, but by the opportunity to implicitly support jabs at @placeholder. | (CNN)In the aftermath of the heinous attacks on the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo in France, many are tweeting and writing in solidarity: Je suis Charlie. But I'm not. Because I am not Charlie. Of course, I unequivocally support the right to free speech. Period. And I also believe in choosing to exercise that right responsibly and respectfully. That's why I would not have published cartoons depicting Prophet Mohammed, insulting 1.6 billion Muslims worldwide in the process (and no, I wouldn't have published many of Charlie Hebdo's cartoons insulting Judaism and Christianity, either). In no way should this be taken -- as it has been by some on Twitter -- to suggest that I somehow condone the killings of Charlie Hebdo's staff. That's a ridiculously insulting idea and just plain wrong. It's possible to honor and protect the free speech rights of publications like Charlie Hebdo while simultaneously believing such cartoons are unnecessarily disrespectful and offensive.

Apple stated during the trial that these companies have proven that it is possible to innovate in the smartphone market without copying @placeholder. | (CNN) -- On August 24, a jury of nine in a California federal court handed down a ruling that sent shockwaves through the global wireless phone industry. Samsung, the world's largest phone maker, was found guilty of infringing on key Apple hardware design and software elements. Samsung got Apple's attention because of its size, but every Android device manufacturer now needs to consider potential exposure areas that could put them in the crosshairs as Apple tries to slow Android growth. The appeals game will surely play out over the next many months. In the meantime, consumers will feel the pain as devices potentially get more expensive and software changes begin to creep into their Android smartphones. If appeals rulings uphold the initial verdict, the mobile ecosystem as we know it will look very different in one to two years. This would be driven by fundamental changes in the look and feel of non-Apple phone hardware, changes to the Android mobile operating system and potentially the emergence of a third popular mobile operating system.
