EU Fines Microsoft $731 MillionEuropean Union regulators say they are fining U.S.-based Microsoft Corporation $731 million for violating an agreement to give computer users their choice of web browsers, not force them to use the company's Internet Explorer.
The EU imposed the fine Wednesday - the first time regulators in Brussels ever have fined a company for failing to comply with an agreement reached with European authorities.
The EU's top corporate regulator, Joaquin Almunia, said Microsoft, the world's largest software maker, had been trusted to live up to a 2009 agreement to offer access to browsers other than Internet Explorer on its Windows operating systems.
Last July, Microsoft acknowledged that for more than a year it had failed to offer the choice of browsers to users of about 28 million computers in Europe. Microsoft said that was a mistake, not an intentional violation of the agreement.
In all, over the last decade, European antitrust regulators have now fined Microsoft nearly $3 billion. Almunia said he hoped that the latest fine "will make companies think twice" about their agreements with regulators.
Microsoft said it took "full responsibility for the technical error" of not offering a choice of browsers, and h... continue reading VINYETTE TO RELEASE DEBUT ALBUM ON MAY 7, 2013Vinyette's Mini Movie Featuring CNN's- Candy Crowley: "Nepotism" http://www.youtube.com/embed/df8ORQNG6Ew

The bill is titled the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill. MPs would be able to vote on the legislation at the second reading in Parliament on February 5.
Maria Miller, the Culture Secretary, said of the legislation to BBC Radio 4: "We feel that marriage is a good thing and we should be supporting more couples to marry." Gay and lesbian couples have been allowed since 2005 to form civil partnerships.
The Coalition for Equal Marriage, a campaign group supporting the legalization of same-sex marriage, have tracked support by individual MPs and claim 336 MPs are likely to vote in favour of the legislation, while 130 are likely to vote against. Conservative MPs are to be given a free vote, but both Labour and Liberal Democrat MPs are broadly in support.
As part of the legislation, the government have included a set of provisions they describe as a "quadruple lock" against churches and other religious denominations being forced to perform same-sex weddings, including an explicit ban on the Church of England and the Church of Wales doing so. The "quadruple lock" consists of an explicit statement in the Bill ... continue reading 360 performances & 92 events, welcome to Sydney Festival 2013The 37th annual three-week-long arts festival, Sydney Festival 2013, took off January 5th and will be doing its best to entertain, educate and celebrate Sydney in summer, until January 27th.
