David Sacks Says He Has No Plans To Leave Microsoft, Endorses Marissa Mayer?s Work-From-Home Ban

Yammer founder David Sacks just left the stage at the Launch conference in San Francisco, where he talked about his future at Microsoft and also weighed in on some hot tech topics including Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer's new ban on working from home. As someone with a startup background (he was chief operating officer at PayPal, founded Geni.com, and is an active angel investor), you might expect that Sacks' time at Yammer, now that it has been acquired by Microsoft, to be limited. Or, as on-stage interviewer Jason Calacanis suggested, maybe Microsoft is hoping Sacks can help turn the company around and is grooming him for a bigger executive role.

Federal government closes DC offices as snow nears

WASHINGTON (AP) ? The federal government says its offices in the Washington, D.C., area will be closed Wednesday as the nation's capital braces for its first big snowfall of the winter.

The Office of Personnel Management says non-emergency employees of the federal government will be granted excused absences for Wednesday.

Forecasters were predicting as much as 10 inches of snow for Washington, with more predicted for the suburbs north and west of the district.

Airlines along the storm's projected path have cut hundreds of flights, most of them at Dulles and Reagan National airports in the Washington area.

Next Samsung Galaxy Note to feature an even bigger, 5.9-inch screen?

The next Samsung Galaxy Note might feature an even larger, 5.9-inch display, and it should be out in the second half of the year, according to an anonymous Samsung official speaking for The Korea Times.

''Samsung is working on introducing a new phablet using a 5.9-inch organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screen,?? the official said.

Interestingly, we?ve earlier heard suggestions that Samsung might make an even bolder jump to a 6.3-inch next Galaxy Note, but this new whisper writes that possibility off. The phablet will come with an octa-core processor, but is not very likely to feature Samsung's bendable displays we've been hearing so much about as Samsung is struggling with manufacturing.

The original Galaxy Note launched with what seemed a truly humongous 5.3-inch display late in 2011, and last year the Note II arrived with a 5.5-inch screen.

This however is really pushing the limits of pocketability. We have seen that there is big interest in phones like these that allow you to read easier, watch photos and movies in bigger sizes and enjoy an overall better media experience, so this seems like a logical move. Yes, and one more reason for most of us to feel like we have such small hands...

Russian police detain suspect over Bolshoi acid attack

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian police detained a suspect on Tuesday over an acid attack that nearly blinded the artistic director of the Bolshoi Ballet.

A brief Moscow police statement gave no other details and did not say who was being questioned. Until now, the police had said they had only questioned witnesses in the case.

Life News, a Russian website with close ties to the police, quoted an unnamed source as saying the suspect had been seized in a police operation in Moscow's suburbs and was not an employee of the Bolshoi Theatre.

Sergei Filin, 42, was badly burned when a masked attacker threw sulphuric acid in his face outside his Moscow apartment as he returned home late on Jan 17.

Filin, who is having treatment in Germany to save his sight, has said he believes he knows who was behind the attack, which has highlighted bitter rivalries in the world of ballet and damaged the image of one of the world's great theatres.
