A Note To Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill
(This puts the Ukrainian branch of his church in a tough spot.)
He might want to read this:
Long-buried Vatican files reveal a new and shocking indictment of World War II’s Pope Pius XII: that in pursuit of absolute power he helped Adolf Hitler destroy German Catholic political opposition, betrayed the Jews of Europe, and sealed a deeply cynical pact with a 20th-century devil. . . .

PRKR
The judge threw out our big case against Qualcomm. He wouldn’t let it come before a jury — which was most odd because he had ruled overwhelmingly in Parker’s favor in the claims construction hearing.
Years ago, a different judge did allow a case against Qualcomm to go to a jury — which awarded Parker more than $100 million — but then, months later, tossed out the jury’s award.
I don’t think this is the end of the PRKR story. Parker says it will appeal. And, at least in theory, damages continue to accrue.
