Steve Jobs Takes Medical Leave Until End of June: Tim Cook Takes Over Operations: Looks like Steve Job’s health issues are a little more than he or anyone else expected. In a media release yesterday, he published this email to all Apple employees
Best of luck Steve. I don’t know what [Apple](http://www.apple.com) will do without you. The last time you left for any period of time, the company tanked. I hope you have things on better footing now.
From SCI FI Wire:
Wrath of Khan’s Ricardo Montalban is dead at 88:
Ricardo Montalban, the Mexican-born actor who became famous as the wish-fulfilling Mr. Roarke in TV’s Fantasy Island and secured his place in the sci-fi hall of fame as the title character in Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan, died Wednesday morning at his home, a Los Angeles city councilman told the Associated Press. He was 88.
This is a shame, but it has to happen to us all at some point. I was a huge fan of *Fantasy Island” (until it jumped the shark), and have always felt that ”The Wrath of Khan” is in the top two ”Star Trek” films (so far). He was great in ”Spy Kids 2” and ”The Naked Gun*. Looking at his [page](http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0001544/) at the [IMDB](http://us.imdb.com), he had a longer, and much busier career than I knew.
