Android Has Generated $31 Billion Revenue, $22 Billion in Profit for Google.

Google’s Android operating system has generated revenue of about $31 billion and profit of $22 billion since its release, an Oracle Corp lawyer told a US court hearing the software company’s copyright lawsuit against Google.A lawyer for Google did not discuss the figure, according to a transcript of the hearing in a Northern California federal court last week. But he said the Alphabet Inc unit might be willing to disclose more information about the revenue produced by Android as part of the court proceedings, the transcript reviewed by Reuters showed.

The Android mobile operating system began with the release of the Android alpha in November 2007. The first commercial version,Android 1.0, was released in September 2008.
Oracle is accusing Google of using its Java software without paying for it to develop Android.
Google said in a court filing on Wednesday that the Android disclosures should not have been made public, and asked the court to place it under seal.
The document, which had been available electronically at a San Francisco courthouse, was removed from the publicly accessible portion of the court’s computer system while a Reuters reporter was reviewing it on Thursday afternoon.
It is not clear what occurred or whether the document would become available again.
Google was not immediately available for comment. Oracledeclined to comment.
The closely watched case involves how much copyright protection should extend to the Java programming language, which Google used to design the operating system. Oracle is seeking royalties for Google’s use of some of the Java language, while Google argues it should be able to use Java without paying a fee

Okechukwu Oku At War With Silverbird Cinemas

Top Nollywood movie producer and director Okechukwu Oku is currently at loggerheads with the management of Silverbird cinemas following a situation he said caused his company a huge financial loss. 
According to National Mirror, the Enugu-born producer recently released a statement to this effect in which he blamed the management of the cinemas for failing to address their power issues which messed up the premiere of his movie The Boss Is Mine.

The statement further reads:
“You may have been expectant and a bit curious as to why I haven’t done any post about The Boss is Mine movie Uyo premiere which was scheduled for the 10th of January at Ibom Tropicana Akwa Ibom. Well after an amazing premiere in Enugu I and my team set out for Uyo the next day. We arrived at the venue and confirmed all was well and subsequently set up for Red carpet. All intended guests arrived, Iyanya, Selebobo, Ime Bishop, Ini Akpabio, The Commissioner for Tourism and a host of important dignitaries all present for an explosive event. At about 4pm, Silverbird Cinemas power supply went off, a situation we believed a huge company like that could handle and are prepared for.

“To our greatest shock, this power outage lasted an hour, two, three and my guest got apprehensive. We approached the management of Silverbird and were told their generator got damaged. I personally decided to visit the generator house to see this for myself and was perplexed to see 4 dead generators. I was made to understand they were  waiting for their engineer to come. We waited till about 8:30pm then my guests started leaving. Shortly after the engineers arrival the generator powered on. I want to use this time to say that Silverbird will not go scot free after messing up my company’s pedigree, shaming my esteemed guests and causing us massive financial loss.”

Okechukwu Oku is respected in the Nigerian movie industry more popularly referred to as Nollywood.

He is also known as The Oracle. He has made his mark in directing, cinematography and film making.

He is also famed for making movies such as Burning Bridges, Love and Oil, as well as for shooting music videos for stars such as Flavour, SeleBobo and Resonance, among others.

Real Madrid Remains Richest Football Club In The World(See Top 30 List).

Spanish Giant, Real Madrid retained their place at the summit of the world’s 20 richest football clubs for the 11th year in a row, having generated £439m, according to Deloitte Football Money League.

Real’s arch-rivals Barcelona rose two places to second on the list, pushing Manchester United down to third. Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich completed the top five.

Real Madrid actually saw a £4.3m fall in broadcast revenue but significant gains in commercial revenue and matchday income made up for the loss.

Whoopi Goldberg Against Oscars Boycott by black Entertainers

The veteran actress on her show 'The View' explained why she is against the boycott of Oscar Awards by the black community. One of her reason is because she thinks that it would be a "slap in the face" of Chris Rock who is hosting the event. During the discussion with her co-hosts she said;

    "You wanna boycott something? Don't go see the movies that don't have your representation. That's the boycott you want. To me, we have this conversation every year. It pisses me off."

    It's not that the problem is that the people who are nominated are too white. They're not looking at a movie and saying, 'Oh, that's very white. I'm not going to nominate that black movie.' They're not sitting there like that!"

    "What the problem is, the people who can be helping to make movies that have blacks and Latinos and women and all that - that movie doesn't come to you. Because the idea is that there's no place for black movies."

    "So I'm not going to boycott, but I'm going to continue to bitch as I have all year round because I'm tired of seeing movies where no one is represented except a bit of the population, not all of it," she said
