Page 6A TV TIME East Oregonian Wednesday, December 7, 2016 High court sides with Samsung in patent dispute with Apple By SAM HANANEL Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court unanimously sided with smartphone maker Samsung on Tuesday in its high-profile patent dispute with Apple over design of the iPhone. The justices said Samsung may not be required to pay all the profits it earned from 11 phone models because the features it copied from the iPhone were only a part of Samsung’s devices. Cupertino, Califor- nia-based Apple had won a $399 million judgment against South Korea-based Samsung for infringing parts of the iPhone’s patented design, but the case now returns to a lower court to decide what Samsung must pay. The case is part of a series of disputes between the technology rivals that began AP Photo/Ahn Young-joon, File In this 2013 file photo, a man passes by the Samsung Electronics Co. logos at its headquarters in Seoul, South Korea. in 2011. Apple accused Samsung of duplicating a handful of distinctive iPhone features for which Apple holds patents: the flat screen, the rounded rectangular shape of the phone and the layout of icons on the screen. At issue was how much Samsung is required to compensate Apple under an 1887 law that requires patent infringers to pay “total profit.” Apple said that means all the profits from the phone sales, while Samsung argued it was limited to profits related to the specific components that were copied. Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote for the court that the law does not require damages to be based on the entire product, but can be limited to only a component of the product. The decision over- turned a ruling from a federal appeals court in Washington, which said that Apple was entitled to all the profits. But the high court declined to lay out a specific test for how such damage awards should be calculated. Sotomayor said doing so was not necessary and the justices left it up to lower courts to resolve. Samsung had argued that the hefty award ignored the fact that its phones contain more than 200,000 other patents that Apple does not own. Apple said the verdict was fair because the iPhone’s success was directly tied to its distinctive look. Samsung already has handed the $399 million over to Apple, but was hoping to get some of that money back with a favorable Supreme Court ruling. None of the early-generation Samsung phones involved in the lawsuit remains on the market. In a statement, Apple said the company is optimistic that lower courts “will again send a powerful signal that stealing isn’t right.” “Our case has always been about Samsung’s blatant copying of our ideas, and that was never in dispute,” the company said. “We will continue to protect the years of hard work that has made iPhone the world’s most innovative and beloved product.” Samsung in a statement called the ruling a victory “for all those who promote creativity, innovation and fair competition in the market- place.” Wednesday Morning 6 PBS ABC NBC CBS FOX STATION AM 6:30 AgDay Hot/ Cleve.

Compa- nies including Google, Facebook and eBay sided with Samsung, arguing that the verdict was an excessive windfall for copying a few features of the iPhone. On the other side, sports- wear manufacturer Adidas and jewelry maker Tiffany & Co. said allowing Apple to recover all the profits Samsung earned would discourage “design pirates” and protect companies that invest in creative designs. “This removes a threat for technology companies,” said Janelle Waack, a Washington, D.C., lawyer specializing in patent law. “The products that incorporate technology are not automatically going to get stung with a patent infringement suit that’s going to cost them all of the profits from their product.” December 7, 2016 Movies 7 AM 7:30 8 AM 8:30 Good Day Spokane Good Day Oregon CBS This Morning (N) CBS This Morning (N) Today Kevin Costner, Missy Franklin, Rita Ora (N) Today Kevin Costner, Missy Franklin, Rita Ora (N) Good Morning America (N) Good Morning America (N) SplashB.

The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor had begun, and Bruner, then 21, scampered up five stories by ladder to the enormous anti-aircraft guns he was responsible for manning. But bullets hit his left leg and explosions set off by the Sunday morning bombard- ment rocked his ship before he could get to the weapons. The ship sank just nine minutes later. Bruner escaped, but suffered severe burns. This week Bruner, now 96, plans to visit a memorial over the Arizona’s sunken wreckage and attend a remembrance ceremony at Pearl Harbor on the 75th anniversary of the Dec. 7, 1941, attack. Bruner has traveled from his Southern California home for the events many times, but doesn’t know how long the Arizona’s few remaining survivors will able to keep up the tradition. “It’s getting close to being the end pretty soon. There’s only five of us left now,” Bruner said. More than 2,300 servicemen died in the Japanese attack that plunged the United States into World War II. Nearly half of those killed were on the Arizona, most still entombed in the wreckage. The Navy and National Park Service expect several dozen attack survivors to attend the remembrance ceremony Wednesday on a pier overlooking the harbor. They, along with thousands of others, will observe a moment of silence at 7:55 a.m. — the same minute the Japanese planes hit their first target in the harbor. Back then, in 1941, Bruner didn’t know who was attacking until the planes got close enough for him to see the red Rising Sun Japanese insignia on their sides. The aircraft shot at “everything in sight,” he said. Then an explosion tore through his battle station. “That’s where the flames blew right through and cooked me right there,” Bruner said in a telephone interview from his home in La Mirada, California. With “everything burning,” Bruner tried to get off the ship as fast as he could. But the water in the harbor 80 feet below — infused with leaked oil — was on fire, too, so jumping wasn’t an option. Bruner and a few fellow shipmates shouted to a sailor on the ship moored next to the Arizona to toss over some rope. The six of them tied the rope and carried themselves hand-over-hand across the 100-foot expanse to the USS Vestal. “You’re like a chicken getting barbecued,” he said. All of them made it, becoming six of the 335 sailors and Marines on the Arizona to survive. Another 1,177 shipmates died. Doctors on the USS Solace hospital ship wanted to amputate most of Bruner’s hands, leaving him with just his forefingers and thumbs, he said. Ultimately they peeled off his dead skin and let new skin grow in. They put him in a special bed with hoops that allowed sheets to be draped above him but not touch him. Navy documents recently uncovered by the genealogy and historical records company Ancestry show Bruner suffered burns on his face and the back of his neck, his right shoulder, right arm and forearm, fingers, hands, outer thighs and lower legs. The burns on his right arm were particularly severe and took longer to heal, according to the documents, which Ancestry has posted in a special section for Pearl Harbor survivors within its military records site Fold3. com. Bruner spent seven months recovering but returned to service, he said, because the Navy needed sailors to train new recruits to fight the war. He was on the USS Coghlan when it bombed Japanese positions on Attu Island in Alaska in 1943. His ship later took troops to the South Pacific and was near Guam when the war ended. He doesn’t like to rehash many details from Dec. 7. He said he just “grins and bears it” to cope with the memories. “There are parts of this whole thing that I can’t talk about. If I do talk about it, I cannot sleep,” he said. Bruner wants his ashes interred inside his old battle- ship after he dies, like many other Arizona survivors who have chosen to be buried with their shipmates. Bruner said he prefers this to lying in a sparsely visited cemetery. “I think I’ve got the last spot,” he said, expressing confidence he’ll be the last of the survivors to go.
