Obama administration vetoes ITC import ban on iPhone 4/iPad? Common Sense prevails

In the world of patents there are two basic kinds of patent. One is known as a ?standards essential? patent. As I?ve written a few times before, a standards essential patent is a technology needed to accomplish a certain task. An example would be the 3G connection technology used by the GSM iPhone 4 and iPad 2 with 3G. The other is a design patent, or something which can be done any other way. Example: The shape and design of a tablet or user interface.

In the case of standards essential patents, the owner of the patent is required to license the technology to other manufacturers under FRAND (fair reasonable and non-discriminatory) terms. In one case in the States, Samsung had taken an ?standards essential? patent to the ITC and complained that Apple hadn?t paid any licensing fees. That much is probably true. What Sammy isn?t keen on showing is that it ? according to Apple ? tried to charge the iPhone makers more than was reasonable, and more than it would demand from other manufacturers.

Having seen Samsung?s evidence, the ITC declared a ban on importing the GSM iPhone 4 and iPad 2, stating that Apple was an unwilling licensee. A decision Apple didn?t like very much, and so they appealed to the government to get it vetoed, which the political party has the authority to do. And ? thankfully ? they vetoed the ban.

As reported by WSJ:

U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman made the decision to veto the ban on the Apple devices, citing concerns about patent holders gaining ?undue leverage.? He said Samsung could continue to pursue its patent rights through the courts.

The Obama administration on Saturday vetoed a U.S. trade body?s ban on the sale of some Apple iPhones and iPads.?The action marked the first time since 1987 that a presidential administration had vetoed a product ban ordered by the U.S. International Trade Commission.

If Samsung really wants to take this further, it will now have to take its complaint to court.

Iranian news agency says it misquoted Rouhani

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) ? Iran's semiofficial ISNA news agency says it misquoted the country's president-elect Hasan Rouhani.

ISNA reported Friday that Rouhani said "the Zionist regime has been a wound on the body of the Islamic world for years and the wound should be removed" in remarks ahead of his inauguration.

The remarks, made during an annual pro-Palestinian rally, echoed longstanding views of other Iranian leaders and threatened to tarnish his image in the West as a voice of moderation in Iranian affairs.

But after an outcry, ISNA corrected the quote, saying Rouhani actually said "in our region and under occupation of Palestine and dear al-Quds (Jerusalem), there has been a wound on the body of the Islamic world."

Treat Your Future Self As a "Manager," Ask Their Advice On Decisions

Most of us are constantly in a struggle between what we want in the moment and what will pay off in the long run. In those situations, ask your always-available manager: your future self.

As Psychology Today points out, treating your future self as a Hollywood-style manager that you've hired to advise you can help keep your perspective on important issues:

I?m the boss, and I don?t have to take my manager?s advice?but on the other hand, I pay my manager to help me. I?d be an idiot not to pay attention.

These days, when I struggle with something, I ask myself, ?What does my manager say?? Often it?s very obvious to my manager what course I should follow, even if I can?t decide (weird right?).

Of course, your future self is worth listening to. They have more life experience than you do and they aren't bogged down by your little day-to-day worries or desires. Your future self "manager" would be more than happy to tell you that you should save money or get some rest instead of blowing cash on energy drinks and all-nighters. After all, their the ones dealing with the health effects later on.

Controlling contagion by restricting mobility: In the face of an epidemic, even moderate travel restrictions would slow contagion

[unable to retrieve full-text content]In an epidemic or a bioterrorist attack, the response of government officials could range from a drastic restriction of mobility -- imposed isolation or total lockdown of a city -- to moderate travel restrictions in some areas or simple suggestions that people remain at home. Deciding to institute any measure would require officials to weigh the costs and benefits of action, but at present there's little data to guide them on the question of how disease spreads through transportation networks. However, a new study comparing contagion rates in two scenarios -- with and without travel restrictions -- shows that even moderate measures of mobility restriction would be effective in controlling contagion in densely populated areas with highly interconnected road and transit networks.

Will Apple's new budget iPhone be called the iPhone 5C?

Apple's forthcoming budget iPhone could be labelled the iPhone 5C, according to a piece of evidence that has recently come to light.

For months now we've been referring to Apple's forthcoming affordable smartphone as the 'budget iPhone,' but now we might have an idea of what its final name will be thanks to a photo posted on a WeiPhone forum.

As you can see, the above image appears to show a bunch of smartphone boxes. Each one contains the name iPhone 5C in a convincing Apple font.

With the next full price iPhone seemingly set to go by the name of the iPhone 5S, this name would certainly slot smoothly into Apple's naming scheme. But what could 'C' stand for?

The 'S' in the iPhone 4S stood for 'speed,' as it was a faster version of the iPhone 4. The iPhone 5S would be the same in relation to the iPhone 5. So how about that 'C'?

One possibility being bandied around is that the 'C' could stand for 'colour.' After all, numerous reports and leaks have suggested that the budget iPhone will come in a variety of colours beyond black and white, rather like Apple's iPod touch range.

Or could the 'C' relate to the phone's wallet-friendly credentials - so 'cost' or 'cheap.' Somehow, though, we doubt Apple would ever label any of its products cheap. It's more likely to be some vague expression such as 'cool,' or the aforementioned 'colour,' we reckon.

With the iPhone 5S rumoured for a September 6 launch date and an iPhone 5C surely set follow soon after - if not launch on the same day - we shouldn't have long to wait to see what that 'C' means, if it proves to be true.

Watchdog sharply critical of Afghan justice training program

By Erin McClam and M. Alex Johnson, NBC News

A nonprofit legal training organization contracted to teach Afghans about the rule of law told NBC News on Thursday that it strongly contested a federal investigator's accusation that it was being allowed to spend almost $50 million without any oversight.

In an "alert letter" sent Monday to the State Department, John Sopko, the special inspector general overseeing Afghan reconstruction programs, alleged that the organization is ill-prepared to handle taxpayer money and refuses to provide U.S. investigators with any accounting of how the cash is being spent.

---

"You can't make this up," Sopko wrote.

The letter says that an audit of legal programs administered by a State Department agency revealed that the $47.8 million Afghanistan justice training program had been awarded to the Rome-based International Development Law Organization without competition and lacking "basic provisions that would allow (the State Department) to ensure proper monitoring and evaluation."

"The irony here is that State violated its own written policy and gave them a huge check to teach the Afghans about the 'rule of law,'" Sopko wrote. "We're going to get to the bottom of this and hold people accountable."

(An earlier version of this story referred to the special inspector general's office as a Defense Department agency. It is an interagency office overseeing Afghanistan operations across the Defense and State departments and the U.S. Agency for International Development. The earlier version also incorrectly referred to Sopko's letter as a "report." It is an alert letter informing the State Department that a formal report would be one step Sopko could take if it fails to address his concerns.)

IDLO isn't a new or little-known organization. Founded in 1983 by international development lawyers in Africa, it has permanent observer status at the United Nations, which lists it as a partner organization.?

Watch US News videos on NBCNews.com

In a statement to NBC News on Thursday, IDLO contended that Sopko's letter was filled with "factual errors and speculative assertions based on incorrect or incomplete information."

"Both IDLO and (the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs, or INL) focused on including robust oversight, monitoring, and evaluation provisions during the program design phase into those documents," it said, including requiring "detailed review by INL."?

It said IDLO is required to submit "detailed explanations of proposed budget expenditure" and must submit to independent third-party audits at any time.

A State Department spokeswoman, Marie Harf, agreed that IDLO's contract included a "robust monitoring and evaluation plan."

"We would also note that while this program is new, there have been no allegations or evidence of fraud, waste or mismanagement," she said.

IDLO also said Sopko was wrong when he wrote that its budget has been declining even as it has taken on more projects.?

"IDLO's budget has been increasing over the past few years, reflecting continuing confidence and trust in IDLO's work from our donors," it said.

That's true, but only to a point. The organization's 2012 financial report (.pdf) does show that its 2012 budget represented a 15 percent increase over what it had projected in its 2011 budget. But it actually represented a 5 percent decline from the final approved budget for 2011.

And that came after significant cuts in financial, operational and human resources spending, made necessary by shortfalls in 2009 and 2010, "to bring about a balanced budget for 2011," according to the documents.

"These reductions have been significant for the Organization," it said in its 2011 financial report (.pdf).

Jim Miklaszewski and Catherine Chomiak of NBC News contributed to this report.

South Africa rebukes officials over Zimbabwe

HARARE, Zimbabwe -- South African President Jacob Zuma, the chief regional mediator on Zimbabwe, said Monday he has rebuked his aides for making "unfortunate statements" on Zimbabwe's lack of readiness to hold crucial elections on July 31.

Significantly softening its stance on the Zimbabwean elections, Zuma's office said in a statement that was released in Zimbabwe that only Zuma was authorized to speak for regional mediators.

Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe, campaigning for the poll, has criticized Lindiwe Zulu, Zuma's international relations advisor, for questioning the southern African nation's ability to hold credible polls in July.

After a chaotic early vote for police and the military officers who will be on duty on polling day, Mugabe described Zulu as "a stupid, idiotic street woman" ? local parlance for a prostitute ? raising the ire of women's equality groups in South Africa and Zimbabwe.

The statement said Zuma had noted with "great concern" remarks attributed to his officials in regional media. It made no mention of Mugabe's slur against Zulu.

Regional leaders of the 15-nation economic and political bloc, the Southern African Development Community, or SADC, at their last summit in June, had urged Mugabe to delay the polls until at least after August 14 to address claims that vetting of accurate voters' lists, democratic reforms demanded by SADC and other preparations were far from completion.

Zuma's office said his officials had made "a number of statements have been made which have been unauthorized and which are regrettable and unfortunate. Some of the utterances have also been inaccurate."

Zuma said he also corrected weekend reports that he telephoned Mugabe to express his dissatisfaction with preparations for the Zimbabwe poll.

"No such telephone call has been made," the statement said.

South Africa remains "fully committed" to warm relations with Zimbabwe and wishes the country well as it prepares for elections, the statement added.

A meeting of Zuma, Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete and President Armando Guebeza of Mozambique, a SADC triumvirate on regional security, in South Africa on Saturday also backed away from criticizing Zimbabwe for rushing toward hasty polls.

In its communique Sunday, it said it noted "problems" that arose during the early police and uniformed services vote on July 13-14 but commended the official state Zimbabwe election commission "for taking up these challenges to be overcome on July 31."

More than half the 70,000 police, soldiers and government officials eligible to cast early ballots failed to vote. The commission said they were turned away when ballot papers and voting materials were not printed and delivered in time at 210 special voting posts.

About 9,600 voting stations are to be set up countrywide for the full election by 6.2 million people listed as registered voters in the population of 13 million.

The communique said regional leaders congratulated Zuma for his "tireless efforts in ensuring that Zimbabwe's political stakeholders hold successful elections" on July 31.

Charlotte church members protest pastor's leadership

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Tensions ran high at a north Charlotte church Sunday morning as members protested Pastor Andrew Rollinson?s leadership, saying he was fired nearly three months ago but refuses to leave.

?Rollinson must go!? about a dozen people chanted outside Morningstar Baptist Church at 5623 Phillips St., off West Sugar Creek Road in the Derita area. ?When? Today!?

Rollinson said he has no intention of leaving the church. He said the members who fired him did not follow church bylaws, and therefore the decision is invalid. He did not say how the members violated the bylaws.

?I?m the pastor. I will be the pastor until people want to follow the bylaws,? he said. ?This is a group of irate individuals who want what they want and are not able to get it according to the bylaws, and they became irate.?

Several Mecklenburg County sheriff?s deputies remained parked outside the church for hours Sunday. At least twice, opposing sides of the protest argued face to face before services.

?I?m the pastor,? Rollinson told a group of protesters.

?No, you?re not. You?ve been dismissed,? one responded.

Some of the church?s 200 members say they fired Rollinson in April but that he refuses to leave.

?Due to his character that is not becoming of a pastor, his dishonesty, controlling demeanor, using the pulpit to disrespect his members ... we are removing Pastor Andrew J. Rollinson from his duties effective immediately,? says the April 28 letter signed by five church leaders. ?May God continue to bless you and your family and we hate things had to end this way.?

Since Rollinson was hired three years ago, some at the church say he has given himself more power and used it to ban members who don?t agree with him. Some also say Rollinson has given himself more control over church finances.

?All we want is for him to leave,? said Vernell Miller-Thompson.

Nobody was arrested at the church Sunday.

Deputies told Rollinson that after talking with the Sheriff?s Office attorney, they determined he was not trespassing.

Donald Fontenot, one of Rollinson?s deacons, read a statement Sunday in response to the protest.

?We love our pastor Andrew J. Rollinson and the leadership he brings,? the letter said. ?He has not done anything wrong and he leads us in the fear of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.?

The statement also acknowledges that the church has banned 19 members for reasons including ?violating our First Amendment Right, participating (in) and encouraging a public disturbance (and) continuous outbursts of false accusations from the pew.?

Jackie Black, chairman of the board of deacons, said he?s lost trust in church leadership.

?I have a different perspective on preachers now,? he said. ?I see this as a business for them and not a place of worship.?

By the time services began shortly after 11 a.m., the two sides appeared to have reached a truce. Law enforcement left and many members headed into the church for worship.

Dwayne President, who was attending the church for the first time Sunday, said he did not know which side to believe. He also said the tension was distracting from the true purpose of Sunday.

?Gandhi said, ?I like your Christ. I don?t like your Christians.? I can see why he said that now,? President said. ?I?m apologizing for the church. The church is supposed to be an example and a light amongst nonbelievers.?

Black acknowledged that the drama has taken away from the church?s mission.

He said the church plans to involve its attorney more when drafting a contract for the next pastor to ensure nothing like this happens again.

?We?re going to make sure it?s very specific so nobody can take advantage of us again,? he said.

Kerry Washington's 'simple and sweet' wedding details

Details of Kerry Washington's secret wedding to Nnamdi Asomugha are slowly coming out.

After tying the knot June 24 in Hailey, Idaho, little has been said about the ceremony.

Now, according to a source who reportedly attended the "Scandal" star's nuptials to the San Francisco 49ers cornerback, the wedding was "simple and sweet."

PHOTOS: SHHH! SECRET CELEBRITY WEDDINGS

"Everything was held at one of Kerry's friend's houses," the insider told People. "They flew a few people out on this little private plane. The house was beautiful."

The ceremony reportedly took place outside on the grounds of the property.

"It was small, just family and close friends," the source added. "They said their own vows, people stayed at the house. It was really simple and sweet."

RELATED: KERRY WASHINGTON MARRIES NFL PLAYER NNAMDI ASOMUGHA

The 36-year-old actress was reportedly dating Asomugha, 32, for a little over a year before they got hitched in the hushed matrimony.

Like the intimate and low key ceremony, Washington supposedly kept it simple with her wedding gown as well.

"The dress was plain white, slim-fitting, like it could have been off a rack," the attendee described. "It was really regular."

Anything but regular, the Emmy nominee, who plays Olivia Pope on the ABC hit series, has captivated audiences on and off the screen.

"I'm blessed," Washington told People after news broke of her nomination for "Scandal." "I'm really happy in all areas of my life."
