Jodie Fisher, the former HP contractor who sued former HP CEO Mark Hurd for sexual harassment and then settled out of court, stated this evening that she is "surprised and saddened" the sacked executive is now without a job.The statement was made by her attorney, Gloria Allred, and read in part, "I was surprised and saddened that Mark Hurd lost his job over this. That was never my intention."
She continued, "Mark and I never had an affair or intimate sexual relationship. I first met Mark in 2007 when I interviewed for a contractor job at the company. At HP, I was under contract to work at high-level customer and executive summit events held around the country and abroad. I prepared for those events, worked very hard and enjoyed working for HP. I have resolved my claim with Mark privately, without litigation, and I do not intend to comment on it further."
"I wish Mark, his family and HP the best," she concluded.
Pardon my bluntness, but what the heck is going on?! Where's the point in their relationship when the sexual harassment happened? I'm not passing judgment here at all—this is just all very peculiar!
In the past few weeks, I’ve been seeing more and more iPhone 4s out in the wild. I think it’s pretty safe to assume that Apple has added a least a couple million more to the 3 million sales figure they revealed at their press conference three weeks ago. But despite there being millions of devices out there, one thing that has been odd the past couple of weeks has been the lack of talk about the iPhone 4′s antenna issue. Reading the headlines three weeks ago, you would have thought Apple was finished — that the iPhone 4 would be a dud. There was absolutely going to be a recall, remember?
Andy Hui flied to Malaysia last week for BIG FOUR concert. Originally planned to return to Hong Kong yesterday afternoon, only Edmond Leung and William So showed up at the airport; Andy Hui and Dick Cheung were missing. Edmond and William said: "They won't be here in a short amount of time. (avoiding reporters?) No, business class cabin was overcrowded, so we returned first. (Andy's emotions affected the performance?) No, he is very professional. The show went well. The four of us were happy. (Contact ex?) Been busy lately." As for Andy's ex Sammi Cheng brought up she doesn't want to disturb love, Edmond said: "Give them some space."
In Dom Cobb's wildest dream did he ever imagine being overshadowed by the post-Land of the Lost Will Ferrell?
We’ve been hearing Verizon iPhone rumors for years now.
