Well, here's that broken piggy bank again. This time it's a big one.

This list from American Kabuki has an extensively documented and categorized list of these resignations. 12 of them are from today's news. I don't know who American Kabuki is, but looks they did a great job of putting this list together.

Lots of piggy banks breaking all around the world. Or maybe it's just the piggies (found at RMN).

[Pardon, but you'll need to copy and paste the links; there's so many of them to fix up I chose not to do it]
