[ "Tokyo (CNN) -- Norio Ohga, the former president and chairman of Sony Corporation who helped to develop the compact disc, died Saturday of multiple organ failure, the company said. He was 81.

He rose to the ranks of chairman and president and is credited with driving the company's growth in movies, video games and music.", "He rose to the ranks of chairman and president and is credited with driving the company's growth in movies, video games and music. Ohga saw the potential of the compact disc early and spearheaded Sony's efforts in that area, the company said. His training as a musician led him to push for a 12-centimeter format, providing enough storage to allow listeners to hear all of Ludwig van Beethoven's Ninth Symphony without interruption, according to Sony. Those specifications are still in use today.", "Those specifications are still in use today. The company sold the world's first CD in 1982 and within five years, CD sales overtook LP record sales in Japan. Ohga is also credited with launching Sony's game business and was head of Sony when it bought Columbia Pictures in 1989. He was a senior adviser to Sony at the time of his death. \"By redefining Sony as a company encompassing both hardware and software, Ohga-san succeeded where other Japanese companies failed.", "\"By redefining Sony as a company encompassing both hardware and software, Ohga-san succeeded where other Japanese companies failed. It is no exaggeration to attribute Sony's evolution beyond audio and video products into music, movies and games, and subsequent transformation into a global entertainment leader to Ohga-san's foresight and vision,\" Sony Chief Executive Howard Stringer said in a statement. \"I offer my deepest condolences on his passing and pray that he may rest in peace.\"" ]

[ "(CNN) -- In a long-awaited speech Thursday in Florida, President Obama will boldly go where no president has gone before, laying out an entirely new vision for the U.S. space program. The firestorm of controversy has already begun For more than 50 years, presidents have pushed for government rockets to send astronauts to space, the moon and possibly Mars. But now a new paradigm is being proposed. The moon program is off the table, and Mars is only a distant possibility.", "The moon program is off the table, and Mars is only a distant possibility. NASA is essentially getting out of the astronaut business, letting the Russians and private enterprise take over. The glory days of NASA, some say, are over. The Obama plan is truly breathtaking, ending an era that lasted from Presidents Kennedy to Bush. Some specifics: • The moon program, called Constellation, is being suspended, and its components and $9 billion of research are going down the drain.", "Some specifics: • The moon program, called Constellation, is being suspended, and its components and $9 billion of research are going down the drain. The Ares rocket, which recently underwent a successful preliminary test, will be canceled. The Orion lunar module will be repurposed as an astronaut \"lifeboat\" tethered to the international space station. • The space shuttle program is ending, causing 4,600 workers to lose their jobs.", "• The space shuttle program is ending, causing 4,600 workers to lose their jobs. (This was also in the Bush plan, but that proposal included funding the Ares rocket.) • Without a space shuttle, the U.S. will rely temporarily on Russian rockets to send our astronauts into space. • Eventually, private enterprise will take over launching our astronauts. Some critics say that this is all too much, too soon. Private companies may not be ready to pick up the slack for years to transport astronauts.", "Private companies may not be ready to pick up the slack for years to transport astronauts. Conceivably, any political crisis with the Russians in far-away places, such as the Balkans, might affect our access to outer space. And we will just have to swallow our pride when the Chinese plant their flag on the moon sometime after 2020, as they say they will. Proponents of the plan Obama is expected to describe, however, say that it is long overdue and inevitable.", "Proponents of the plan Obama is expected to describe, however, say that it is long overdue and inevitable. In these trying financial times, the U.S. cannot sustain an ambitious space program. Get real, they say. Let private enterprise take over. It's the American way. But everyone agrees that the wheel is broken and needs to be fixed. It all boils down to one dirty four-letter word: cost.", "It all boils down to one dirty four-letter word: cost. During the Cold War, the superpowers gladly opened their treasuries because the space race was a matter of national pride and honor. Since then, the realities have sunk in. It costs about $10,000 per pound to send anything into near-Earth orbit. (Think of John Glenn made of solid gold.)", "(Think of John Glenn made of solid gold.) But when you add in life support and safety factors, it costs about $65 million to send each astronaut aboard the space shuttle, which in turn costs half a billion dollars per launch. To go to the moon would cost perhaps 10 times as much. There are some positive recommendations that Obama should keep in mind as he plots the future of the space program. • NASA needs to set concrete goals and deadlines.", "• NASA needs to set concrete goals and deadlines. In the past, the space shuttle and the international space station were used to justify each other's existence. Instead, the space program should hold the feet of the bureaucracies and corporations to the fire. Having a tangible vision of the future, with a clear destination and mission, will hold planners accountable, give a sharp focus to the objectives of the space program and cut waste.", "Having a tangible vision of the future, with a clear destination and mission, will hold planners accountable, give a sharp focus to the objectives of the space program and cut waste. • NASA has to abandon its cost-plus model, where it guarantees its contractors a profit beyond the cost.
