Apple and Samsung finally agree... to drop a plethora of claims from their patent spat

Apple and Samsung finally agree... to drop a plethora of claims from their patent spat

Last week, Judge Lucy Koh informed Apple and Samsung that they would have to reduce the number of patent claims at issue in the parties' Northern District of California litigation. And now, each has complied, with Samsung dropping its total number of asserted patent claims from 75 to 15, while dismissing two patents from the case altogether. For its part, Apple has reduced its case to one claim from each of its asserted utility patents, its four iPhone and one iPad design patents, and its trade dress claims for those two devices. Keep in mind, however, that they did so without prejudice, which means that either party can reassert these dismissed claims in a later lawsuit. That said, the parties have at least attempted to placate Judge Koh in order to keep their July 30th trial date, which is when the real legal fireworks begin. Feel free to check the filings below for the full scope of this most recent patent pruning.

UFC on Fox?s Three Stars: Nate Diaz, Alan Belcher and Lavar Johnson

The UFC's first two airings on Fox didn't quite live up to fans' expectations. Junior dos Santos' 64-second knockout of Cain Velasquez was almost too quick to appreciate, and the second Fox show featured lackluster decisions. The third try delivered, as the main card filled with exciting bouts and great finishes.

Here are Cagewriter's Three Stars from the weekend. Tell us yours in the comments, on Facebook or on Twitter.

No. 1 star -- Nate Diaz: The younger Diaz brother stepped out of his brother Nick's shadow with a perfect performance ending in the first submission loss of Jim Miller's career, then made the classy move of supporting Miller's nephew's cause. His performance earned him a title shot and a $65,000 Submission of the Night bonus, and his nice gesture won him new fans.

No. 2 star -- Alan Belcher: Not only did Belcher TKO Rousimar Palhares, but he did it like a BAWSE. He jumped into the lion's mouth, daring Palhares to slap one of his trademark heel hooks on before transitioning out and using ground and pound to win. Unlike Diaz and Johny Hendricks, Belcher was not promised a title shot for his performance, but he showed he's ready for the elite of the middleweights.

No. 3 star -- Lavar Johnson: Putting Johnson's bout with Pat Barry first on the Fox card was smart, because it would have been shocking if these two didn't deliver with a knockout in the first round. Though Johnson pulled it off with just 22 seconds left in the round, he did put Barry out with a devastating barrage of strikes.

Levi Johnston to Name Baby Girl After Gun


Levi Johnston's daughter-to-be will soon be named after his piece.

No, not the instrument that impregnated Bristol Palin in 2008 and now Sunny Oglesby, who is expecting their first child together. We mean a gun.

"Breeze Beretta Johnston," Oglesby announced when asked by Inside Edition what they will name their baby girl, who will arrive later this year.

"Like the gun, Beretta?" the interviewer asked, referring to the Italian firearms manufacturer. "Yeah," the 20-year-old blonde answered, laughing.

Redneck

"My favorite shotgun," Johnston, who celebrates his 22nd birthday today, added before showing off the "Breeze" tattoo he has on his right bicep.

He also has "Tripp," for his son with Bristol, inked on his other arm.

Last month, Johnston admitted during an interview with The Insider that Sunny Oglesby's pregnancy came as a surprise ... much like his first rodeo.

"It was unplanned. There was a time we went to the cabin and forgot the birth control pills and a month later we found out we were having a baby."

Funny how that works. Twice in 22 years in this ne'er-do-well's case.

Canon EOS 5D Mark III's light leak fix found to be black tape

ImageWhen Canon promised a fix for the EOS 5D Mark III's preview LCD leaking light, photographers wondered just what the "countermeasures" would be to prevent the display from affecting exposure readouts. The remedy, it turns out, is a simple patch -- of the physical kind, not software. Roger Cicala at LensRentals was brave enough to tear down one of the DSLRs shipping with a fix already in place and found black electrical tape covering the LCD area that would otherwise spill light into the exposure meter. While basic, the solution does the trick, and will no doubt be a relief to shutterbugs who want to know exactly what exposure they'll get while snapping photos in the dark.

A few weeks ago, Canon confirmed that in certain extremely dark situations, the excellent 5D Mark III's LCD's backlight leaked light onto the camera's auto-exposure sensor. Oh no! Our friends at LensRentals.com took apart one of the newly fixed models—and the solution is so simple we can't believe it works. More »
