Anna-Sofiya Matveeva sticks a chewing gum to a canvas to create a portrait of head coach of Shakhtar Donetsk soccer club Mircea Lucescu in the town of Makiyivka in the Donetsk region in eastern Ukraine, February 13, 2013. The creation depicting Shakhtar Donetsk's coach Mircea Lucescu should become the third one from the series, which also includes a completed portrait of late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs and a partially finished chewing gum illustration of singer Elton John. The artist uses gums chewed by her acquaintances, as a creation usually requires from five hundred to one thousand chewed gums. Small pieces, donated by different people and making one portrait, symbolize contributions of multiple individuals to the formation of a celebrity, according to artist Matveeva.

It was the late Steve Jobs' worst nightmare. A powerful Asian manufacturer, Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, uses Google Inc's Android software to create smartphones and tablets that closely resemble the iPhone and the iPad. Samsung starts gaining market share, hurting Apple Inc's margins and stock price and threatening its reign as the king of cool in consumer electronics. Jobs, of course, had an answer to all this: a thermo-nuclear legal war that would keep clones off the market. Yet nearly two years after Apple first filed a patent-infringement lawsuit against Samsung, and six months after it won a huge legal victory over its South Korean rival, Apple's chances of blocking the sale of Samsung products are growing dimmer by the day. Indeed, a series of recent court rulings suggests that the smartphone patent wars are now grinding toward a stalemate, with Apple unable to show that its sales have been seriously damaged when rivals, notably Samsung, imitated its products. That, in turn, may usher in a new phase in the complex relationship between the two dominant companies in the growing mobile computing business. Tim Cook, Jobs' successor as Apple chief executive, was opposed to suing Samsung in the first place, according to people with knowledge of the matter, largely because of that company's critical role as a supplier of components for the iPhone and the iPad. Apple bought some $8 billion worth of parts from Samsung last year, analysts estimate. [caption id=attachment_620216 align=alignleft width=380 It was the late Steve Jobs' worst n

strongSan Francisco:/strong Apple co-founder Steve Jobs threatened to file a patent lawsuit against Palm if that company's chief executive didn't agree to refrain from poaching Apple employees, according to a court filing made public on Tuesday. The communication from Jobs surfaced in a civil lawsuit brought by five tech workers against Apple Inc , Google Inc , Intel Corp and others, alleging an illegal conspiracy to eliminate competition for each other's employees and drive down wages. The defendant tech companies have attempted to keep a range of documents secret. However, US District Judge Lucy Koh in San Jose, California rejected parts of that request, which led to details of Jobs' 2007 communications with then-Palm chief executive Edward Colligan becoming part of the public record. Jobs proposed eliminating competition between the two companies for talent, according to a sworn statement from Colligan cited by the plaintiffs. Mr Jobs also suggested that if Palm did not agree to such an arrangement, Palm could face lawsuits alleging infringement of Apple's many patents, Colligan said in the statement.
