 It's Wednesday, February 13th, 2013. I'm Dan Seifert, and this is 90 seconds on the Verge, brought to you by the semi-aquatic North American River Otter. Last night, President Obama gave his annual State of the Union address, and technology was on his mind. The president called for further investment in science and technology, saying quote, now is the time to reach a level of research and development not seen since the height of the space race. He also announced a much-anticipated executive order intended to address cybersecurity threats. In return, Congress reintroduced the controversial Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act today. That bill originally stalled in the Senate last year, but we'll see what happens this time around. It looks like HP is getting back into mobile, and it's using Android. According to Read Right, Hewlett Packard is currently working on an Android-powered tablet. The company is also considering adding smartphones to the mix, despite its failure with webOS smartphones and tablets two years ago. At last, we'll finally have some choices when it comes to Android devices. Finally, gaming company Valve is looking to shake up your living room, but it's going through some internal changes as well. Last night, engineer Jerry Ellsworth took to Twitter to announce that she'd been fired. Ellsworth was known to be working on controllers for Valve's so-called Steam Box devices. Valve traditionally doesn't fire staff, but Ellsworth is said to be one of up to 25 different people that were let go in what one employee called a quote, great cleansing. While Valve has yet to confirm the layoffs, at least eight people have disappeared from its online staff directory. And that's it for today's top stories. Coming up tomorrow, faux-pop patterns for your LED screen. Don't overblink, people.
