Your predicament tallies with that of friend,who,when finally found true love,was hindered by the genotype anomaly.to say she was devastated is an understatement.she just vaporised,dissolved into oblivion.her mans father refused all entreatise, even from clerics,proffering solutions to the matter.although she's moved on,the memories of the relationship still haunts her.i pray God Almighty soothes her pain and yours too,dear.everyone deserves to be happy.

Phones › Apple Loses UK Appeal: Public shaming Goes Forward by eherbal(op): 11:10pm On Oct 22, 2012
Earlier this year, a judge in the
United Kingdom awarded a rare
gift to Samsung in its global
patent battle against Apple. The
judge ruled that Samsung did
not infringe on Apple’s design
patents and offered a strange
remedy: Apple must publically
apologize to Samsung in
prominent news publications in
the UK and post the apology on
its website for a month. Apple,
full of pride (and a highly paid
legal team) bristled at the
judgment and appealed. The
appeal was heard by a trio of
judges and the verdict came
down Wednesday. Sorry Apple,
you still have a date with public
shaming.
The purpose of the
advertisement is to correct the
impression that Samsung copied
Apple’s design, specifically of
the iPad. The ads will run in
British publications such as the
Daily Mail, Financial Times as well
as on the Apple UK website.
“The acknowledgement must
come from the horse’s mouth,”
the judges ruled, according to
the BBC.
An Absurd Result
The absurdity of this trial should
not be understated.
First, the subject. We are talking
about design patents,
something extremely hard to
quantify. Much like the U.S. case
in a California court between the
companies, Apple claims that
Samsung copied the front face
and shape of the tablet. The
original judge, Colin Birss, said
that Samsung did not copy
Apple because the Galaxy Tab in
question did not have the “same
understated and extreme
simplicity possessed by Apple.”
Famously, Birss also said that
Samsung tablets were simply,
“not as cool” as Apple’s iPad.
If coolness won court battles,
the Fonz should have become a
lawyer.
A Disturbing Trend
While many will delight in
Apple’s public shaming, a
disturbing trend is starting to
emerge if you are one of the
company top executives: Apple
is losing most of its appeals.
For every big headline victory
that Apple wins against
Samsung or other mobile
manufacturers, it seems like an
equally large appeal wipes out
those gains. Apple won a ban of
the Samsung Galaxy Nexus
earlier this year, only to have a
U.S. appeals court toss out the
ban.
Apple won an injunction against
HTC and its One X smartphone in
the spring, only to have HTC
redesign certain software
aspects of the device and
rerelease it. The One X is a
quality device, so much so that
we awarded it the ReadWrite
Recommends Smartphone
in September. A judge in Chicago
more or less tossed out a patent
suit between Apple and
Motorola, telling the sides to
negotiate a settlement.
Apple is even losing ground in a
case that it originally won, the
much-covered design and utility
patent case in California that the
iPhone maker won through a
jury ruling. Samsung was
ordered to pay Apple $1.05
billion in that case and
injunctions on several devices
were issues. One of those
injunctions, against the Galaxy
Tab 10.1 inch tablet, has already
been dissolved by the judge
overseeing the case.
Apple has also lost appeals to
Samsung over design patents in
Australia and the Netherlands.
Is Apple's Legal Strategy
Unraveling?
The California judgment has the
potential to unravel on appeal as
well. The primary point of
contention in that case is that
the jury foreman, Velvin Hogan,
tainted the jury in favor of
Apple because he was once sued
by a former employer, Seagate
Technology. Samsung happens
to have a “strategic
relationship” with Seagate.
Samsung is asking for dismissal
of the verdict.
Apple’s goal in many of these
lawsuits is to stem the flood of
quality Android devices
that take attention away from
the iPad and iPhone. If Apple
cannot (or will not) go directly
after Google to cut the head off
the Android monster, the best it
can do is give legal headaches to
the manufacturers. Sometimes,
those legal battles are effective,
even if Apple does eventually
lose on appeal. The injunction
against the HTC One X caused it
to lose thousands of potential
unit sales.
Apple has spent millions in court
on winning these lawsuits. Yet
in the end, Cupertino may have
little to show for its victories.

I had this friend of mine who's always telling me about my look alike in her area in bariga.anytime she sees the dude,she calls me to hurry down to see him.the strangest part is that he leaves some seconds before my arrival.there was a time she boldly approached him to wait for me,stating her reasons.he obliged her.she called me and i drove down her place as if hell itself was on my tail,only for him to leave,telling her that i should wait for him cause he had things to do at home.funny enough,i was at the gate leading to the street,which was just some seconds drive to her house.i waited like forever,and the bloke didn't show up.prior to this,my mum had warned me not to go looking for him cause i will never meet him,and he's been avoiding me cause it could have consequences.

Will that stop her from buying private jets and foreign properties?
Or will it stop her from looting the aviation budgeted funds?
Moreover will it make her return the bribe she has taken from the management of Dana Air to lift their suspension?

Bunch of callous individuals.


Mumu people that don't even know their portfolios.

This nonsense stunts is for the Ministers of Environment, Works and Internal Affairs and doesnt concern her at all.
