“There’s good news and there’s bad news,” said Cheng in an interview with Ars. “The good news is, we won this case on every point. The bad news is, we’re running out of lawsuits. There are fewer trolls for us to fight. I’ve spent a lot of time over the last seven years figuring out what to do with these guys. There are strategies I think would be really neat and effective that I literally can’t execute. I can’t make good law because I don’t have any appellate cases left. They [the trolls] are dismissing cases against us before any dispositive motions.”

Newegg has already won two other patent appeals this year from Kelora Systems and Soverain Software. Even though Alcatel-Lucent has billions in revenue from real businesses, when it comes to patent battles Cheng doesn’t see them as being so different. Since Alcatel is asserting patents in markets it’s nowhere near actually participating in he sees them as a kind of “corporate troll.”
I’m celebrating by heading over to Newegg and buying something!
This is a longer video than most, but well worth watching.
Sebastian Gorka is not the only one to speak up about this – Stephen Caughlin has also spoken out about the reality of the ideological purges in the intelligence community on many occasions. However, Sebastian Gorka goes into the roots of the Obama ideology in a much clearer detail:
The following video is included as it focuses on he story of one of the victims of the Obama purges:
While I don’t agree with everything said, it is something to think about.
Everyday we are bombarded by horrors from the Arab-Muslim world and to many people it is unclear as whether we are in a fight against Islam the religion or Islamism the ideology.
Daniel Pipes has written extensively on this topic and there is no better person to lead a discussion.

Animals are way smarter than most of us give them credit for.
(Well, most animals – my dog excepted…but he is beautiful and loving and we don’t mind that he has the intelligence of a tuberous begonia. Our rabbit has enough smarts for both of them!)
Mastering the Moscow subway system is something stray dogs can, apparently, achieve! And, they seem to be better at assessing our psychology than most of us are at learning theirs…
They got their 15 minutes of fame by publicly opposing gay marriage on the grounds that it wasn’t ‘Biblical’ (and funding – second-hand – some nasty homophobic groups) in the name of ‘family values’.
Aside: Don’t get me wrong, they are a private company and they are free to present any image they like and spend their profits in any way they choose. All I am doing is pointing out how they live up to the values they themselves profess to live according to.
Well, now they are revealing more about exactly what constitutes these ‘Biblical family values’ that Chick-fil-A promotes: Mother-Son Medieval Date Night!!!
They even promote it on their own website! Here is a screenshot:
We learn from ‘Biblically Correct Family Values’ that Deuteronomy 21:18-21 gives instructions to parents how to go about having a disobedient son stoned to death, Judges 11:30-39 gives instructions how to sacrifice your daughter to God (and no, this time there is no last-moment intervention to stop the sacrifice), and, among other things, tosses in the New Testament Biblical family values as instructed by both Matthew (10:34-36) and Luke (14:26).
From ‘Keeping Marriage Biblically Correct’, we learn from Genesis (16:3) all about Abram and Sarai and how she gave him her maidservant Hagar for a wife and we also learn (32:22) about Jacob and his two wives and his two concubines. The booklet also gives useful tips on rape-crisis counseling (from both Deuteronomy and Leviticus) and how to find a wife (Deuteronomy and Exodus) and other useful bits of advice on how to live according to Biblical values.
However, unless one goes all the way back to wondering whom exactly did the sons of Adam procreate with if the only female in existence was their mother, Eve, there is nothing there about mothers dating their sons (though there is plenty about fathers impregnating their daughters…).
