Nokia will have its revenge on the smartphone industry – Yahoo News

Will Lutz’s 26-yard field goal with four seconds to play snapped Georgia State’s 16-game losing streak dating back to 2012. The Panthers scored 17 points in the fourth quarter to secure its first victory since Oct. 13, 2012 against Rhode Island. Quarterback Nick Arbuckle broke out with 413 yards passing and four scores and receiver Lynquez Blair finished with 118 yards receiving and a touchdown. Takeaway: Georgia State’s win has more than the normal implications. For a program that has struggled mightily in its transition to the Football Bowl Subdivision, GSU can now find confidence in the fact it can indeed win a game. Furthermore, second-year coach Trent Miles, who successfully turned Indiana State in a positive direction before arriving in Atlanta, now has a proven result to build off of.

The reason for this is easy to understand: Samsung may be forced to pay one of the historys biggest patent royalty sums to Nokia, and fellow Korean electronics titan LG is not scot free, either. What unleashed the beast in the Finnish company was its decision to sell its handset division to Microsoft a while back. As long as Nokia was a phone company, it was bound by a web of cross-licensing deals limiting how much it can charge for its thousands of handset-related patents. Nokia needed to use both essential and non-essential patents held by Samsung, Apple, Motorola and other industry giants, which put a rather severe cap on how much it could charge other phone vendors. But when Nokia got out of handset business, the need for those cross-licensing deals vanished and Nokia emerged as a Non-Practicing Entity (NPE). Or as Business Korea defines the term, a patent troll.

You’re just really excited to get back in that race car. Appreciation is another emotion you really feel.

Rookies Kendall James and Jabari Price, both Day 3 selections, also are worth watching. BEST LONGSHOT ROOKIE –Brandon Watts, OLB, Georgia Tech, Round 7/223rd overall: At 6-foot, 225, Watts lacks ideal size, but possesses the kind of speed and coverage ability that will add depth at a position of weakness and help bolster one of the league’s better special teams units. With sideline-to-sideline speed and the knack of being able to shadow running backs and tight ends in man coverage, he should be a piece of the rebuilding project at linebacker. NFLDraftScout.com projected Watts as a seventh-round pick as the 23rd best outside linebacker in the draft.

Hong Kong Activists Protest China’s Control Of Leadership Vote : The Two-Way : NPR

Jerome Favre/EPA/Landov hide caption itoggle caption Jerome Favre/EPA/Landov Protesters attend a rally organized by the Occupy Central with Love and Peace movement outside the Chief Executive office in Hong Kong, China, on Sunday. Jerome Favre/EPA/Landov Pro-democracy activists have taken to the streets in Hong Kong to protest China’s rejection of pleas that the territory hold an open election for its next chief executive three years from now. As NPR’s Frank Langfitt reports, the protesters say they will attempt to paralyze the city’s financial district with protests after an announcement that gives the territory a vote in 2017, but only from a group of candidates hand-picked by a pro-Beijing committee. The pro-democracy movement, known as Occupy Central a reference to the city’s main business district says in a statement that Beijing’s approach deprives voters of genuine choice. “Instead of trying to gain the trust of the people, something governments have always had to do, our central government is now afraid of the people and has lost their trust,” the group said in a statement. Frank says: “Officials in Beijing argue that Western-style democracy is not appropriate for such a huge country as China. Successful, open elections in Hong Kong, which is a former British colony, could make that argument a little harder to make.” The BBC quotes Benny Tai Yiu-ting, co-founder of the Occupy Central protest group, as saying China’s move means “the end of any dialogue.
