Google boss quits Apple amicably GOOGLE CEO Eric Schmidt has resigned from Apples board of directors as the internet search leader increasingly develops products that compete with Apples core businesses, including the popular iPhone. Apple Inc boss Steve Jobs said Mr Schmidt would have had to excuse himself from large portions of the companys board meetings to avoid potential conflicts of interest.

Scientists find new HIV strain in gorillas A WOMAN from Cameroon is infected with an Aids-like virus that came from gorillas. The 62- year-old woman was diagnosed and the virus was compared with a gorilla immunodeficiency virus. Scientists say Aids jumped to people who hunted chimpanzees. Our findings indicate that gorillas, in addition to chimpanzees, are likely sources of HIV- 1, Jean-Christophe Plantier of the Universite de Rouen in France and his team wrote. The woman who has no symptoms of Aids was likely infected by another person, researchers said.
