Apple Suing Samsung for Copying
Apple Inc. is suing Korea’s Samsung Electronics Co. for copying the design, look and even the packaging of its iPhone and iPad products. Apple alleges that Samsung’s Galaxy phones and tablet computers infringe the patents of its products. Included in the list of infringements are the use of the hand gestures used on Apple’s touch screens, the colour and shape of Samsung’s devices, and even the design of the boxes in which Samsung’s gadgets are sold. Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, accused Samsung of violating Apple trademarks and patents.
He included the Korean tech giant in a list of companies making tablets that would make 2011 the “Year of Copycats.” Steve Dowling, an Apple spokesperson, said the company had to protect its intellectual copyright. Samsung executives are not happy at having to fight Apple in court. The two companies are dependent on each other in many ways. Samsung supplies many of the parts for Apple’s iPhone.
A Samsung spokesperson said his company’s “development of core technologies and the strengthening of our intellectual property portfolio are keys to our continued success.” He added: “Samsung will respond actively to this legal action taken against us through appropriate legal measures to protect our intellectual property.” The courtroom battle is set to last months, perhaps years. A lot is at stake. Industry analysts predict tablet computers will soon overtake personal computers in global sales. Apple is determined the iPhone, introduced in 2007, and the iPad, which came in 2010, will continue as market leaders.

Drug Smuggler Arrested
Customs officials at a Sheremetyevo-2 airport have arrested a Columbian man accused of smuggling a record amount of cocaine inside his stomach. The man was transporting over a kilo of cocaine to Hong Kong via Russia. The Colombian approached a customs officer and asked him for medical help. The officer suspected drug smuggling and the man was taken to a hospital where an X-ray showed that his stomach was packed with special containers filled with cocaine. It turned out that the man was trying to transport 1148 grams of the drug in 86 containers. If sold, it could bring him over one million dollars. Usually, drug smugglers do not swallow more than 600 grams.
This way of transporting is considered to be especially dangerous as it can kill the smuggler if the covers of containers are destroyed in the stomach.
If found guilty, the man might face up to 20 years in a Russian prison. He smuggle drugs by the Columbian mafia.

"Happy Birthday To You" song in court case (17th June, 2013)
Everybody knows the song "Happy Birthday To You". It is the most popular and most often sung song in the English language. It is also now part of a legal case. A New York film company called Good Morning To You (GMTY) Productions has opened a lawsuit that says the song belongs in the public domain. This means anyone can use it because there is no copyright on it. However, the record label Warner Music says it owns the copyright to the tune. GMTY is making a documentary about the history of the song and had to pay Warner Music $1,500 to use it.
If it didn't pay, it could have got a penalty of $150,000. The boss of GMTY was angry about this fee and took the case to a court in New York.The melody of "Happy Birthday To You" comes from the song, "Good Morning to All". This was written in 1893 by two sisters from Kentucky, USA. They wrote it because they thought it would be easy for young children to sing. The words to "Happy Birthday To You" were added to the tune around a decade later. One of the most famous performances of the song was when Marilyn Monroe sang, "Happy Birthday, Mr. President" in a sexy voice to John F. Kennedy in 1962. GMTY says any copyright on the song ran out almost 100 years ago. The company wants Warner Music to return the millions of dollars it has collected for the song. Warner Music has so far stayed quiet and has not commented on the court case.

Teacake Wrangle
The European Court of Justice has ruled that British retailer, Marks & Spencer, can claim back £3.5mln in overpaid VAT on teacakes. For years, the British authorities defined a chocolate teacake as a biscuit- which attracts a sales tax- rather than a cake, which does not. So when is a cake not a biscuit?
Teacakes are made of a shortbread base, a marshmallow filling and a chocolate shell. The British tax authorities decided it was a biscuit, a luxury food liable to sales tax. The supermarket insisted it was a cake, a basic food which is exempt from tax.
The argument has been through many courts and the latest decision has been on the cake side of the argument. Marks & Spencer should get a tax refund, said the judge.

Drug Smuggler Arrested
Customs officials at a Sheremetyevo-2 airport have arrested a Columbian man accused of smuggling a record amount of cocaine inside his stomach. The man was transporting over a kilo of cocaine to Hong Kong via Russia. The Colombian approached a customs officer and asked him for medical help. The officer suspected drug smuggling and the man was taken to a hospital where an X-ray showed that his stomach was packed with special containers filled with cocaine. It turned out that the man was trying to transport 1148 grams of the drug in 86 containers. If sold, it could bring him over one million dollars. Usually, drug smugglers do not swallow more than 600 grams.
This way of transporting is considered to be especially dangerous as it can kill the smuggler if the covers of containers are destroyed in the stomach.
If found guilty, the man might face up to 20 years in a Russian prison. He smuggle drugs by the Columbian mafia.

U.S. Hit by Russian Pirate Sales
Sales of pirated films, software and books in Russia cost U.S. copyright holders billions of dollars. Only China surpassed Russia in piracy.
Increasing the penalty for counterfeiters and using special labels to make pirated merchandise easier to recognize are among the suggestions put forward by the lawmakers.
Deputy Prosecutor General called for a crackdown on manufacturers and retailers of counterfeit merchandise, as on those who provide floor spaces, equipment or other support for pirates.
Unauthorized copies of the latest Hollywood hits as well as pirated business software are easy to find throughout the country and it results in the large losses for copyright holders.
Counterfeit goods account for 35 to 90 percent of turnover in certain market segments, but the most troubling are food and medicine.
