Lawyers & Law Firms
Simply put, this is just too much money for any plaintiff to win, especially a patent troll like this one. Frivolous lawsuits like this one just hurt our economy and send jobs overseas. This case should have been thrown out by the judge. Big verdicts like this do not make us safer or more secure. To learn more about how to change our patent system and our court system so we can guarantee smaller verdicts, contact yourrepresentative at the United States Chamber of Commerce. Verdicts like this hurt shareholders and hurt our economy.
It is rulings like this that show how out-of-control the patent troll problem is. $290 mm for an invention relating to "Custom XML?" Can we find 290 customers who bought Microsoft Word because of "Custom XML?" Can we find 290 customers who are aware of what that feature is? Can we find 290 customers who would pay a dollar each for that feature, let alone a million each? The decision-makers involved with this case should have stepped back and had a reality check. Assuming this was a valid patent, fine--issue an injunction and make Microsoft take the feature out. But $290 mm for this? This is effectively imposing an unjustified tax on Microsoft's customers (including students, teachers, hospitals, etc.) and providing a huge windfall to a patent troll. Federal Circuit, you are supposed to be providing the adult supervision to prevent games like this. What happened? Absent the Federal Circuit dealing with this problem, under our system of checks and balances, another branch has to step in and reform the patent system.
Microsoft has crushed many legitimate patent holders who could not withstand their legal onslaught and could not afford the millions of dollars necessary to fight the King Kong of software.
The PTO has over 6000 patent examiners. The process of obtaining a patent takes several years and costs $10,000 or more. Approximately 150,000 patents will issue this year. Mistakes will be made in patents issued, and a process exists for people to ask the PTO to re-examine any patent. Most patents go to large companies who can afford the fees and lawyers to pursue the applications over many years. Microsoft owns many patents and is filing for more patents all the time. In contrast, the number of patents that go to court is a tiny fraction of those issued. Each patent that goes to Court is "fly-specked" in extreme detail. And the company sued has the option of going back to the PTO if it is sued on a patent and ask the PTO to do yet another examination of that patent based on any information the company has found (located years after the fact). Even so, most trial court judgments for patent owners are reversed (at least partially) on appeal -- it is rare that one is affirmed completely. Microsoft's lawyers would not follow the Judge's rulings and obey his orders in the trial, and Microsoft was required to pay a penalty based in part on this conduct. What is unfair is that a corporate titan allows its attorneys to violate Court orders, refuses to pay an affirmed judgment, and seeks to make statutory changes that benefit only a small group of wealthy companies by making it even harder to enforce a patent against them: Patent reform is propaganda paid for by Microsoft and other big companies to help themselves avoid what amount to tiny fees and rare, small judgments, compared to the billions made by them....Corporate arrogance is ruining this country....In Europe, the EU is working to make patents easier to enforce not harder to enforce...Responsible citizenship should cause Microsoft to do the same here.
i4i is NOT a patent troll (or, more politically correct, and NPE - 'Non-Practicing Entity')...they do NOT acquire IP for the purpose of litigation. i4i is a legitimate entity, they invented the patented technology, and they USE it in their products.
What Microsoft practices is not "Capitalism".
Thank you Atticus Finch and For the Common Good.
I doubt the naysayers will read this, though.
Microsoft is the same old Microsoft from day one.
Despite its size, it has paid out multi-millions in court cases for patent theft of smaller companies, but not all the companies have the wherewithal to fight them so when they lose Microsoft should be fined exponentially to make up for their ongoing patent theft.

Skinny, plus size, slim, buxom, waif-like, full-figured - women have a myriad of ways to describe our bodies. Isn't it about time we dropped the labels?
When the Quebec edition of ELLE magazine released their current issue with model Justine LeGault gracing the cover, it made headlines around the world. It's unusual for the ELLE brand - as their covers typically feature sample size celebrities and models. For the record, sample size is an New Zealand size 6-8. In the US it's a 0-2 (New Zealand size 4-6).
Justine LeGault is undeniably a gorgeous woman - with her tousled blonde hair and flawless complexion - but it's her body that has people talking.
If we can get past the concept that it's apparently news-worthy to see a larger than sample size woman in a fashion magazine, we can then ask the question; why do magazine titles feel they need to announce that the model you are looking at is 'plus size' or 'curvy'?
While the ELLE cover is a fantastic example of demonstrating that a cover girl doesn't have to be sample size, it would have made more of an impact if there was no reference in the cover lines. For those of you who (like me) tuned out and passed notes in high school French class, the main cover line reads; "Size, age, ethnicity... and if fashion has changed models." It's great that Justine is on the cover of ELLE, it's just a shame they felt they needed to dedicate an issue to diversity to do so.
Too often we see editorial or advertising shoots featuring larger than sample size women that practically shout to readers that the model is bigger than typical models.
The recently closed Madison magazine featured Robin Lawley on the cover of their March 2012 issue. The cover line read: "First Australian cover, Robyn Lawley - 'You don't have to be skinny or small to be beautiful."' The main cover line read "super sex curves" and 'curves' was in the largest type of any other word on the cover except the title of the magazine. We can see Robyn Lawley is bigger than Miranda Kerr, pointers are unnecessary.
It is a sentiment shared by new CLEO editor Sharri Markson. "In both our fashion and beauty pages, we have girls alongside models showcasing make-up products and clothes," she says. "There is no fanfare around this in CLEO, it is just seamlessly incorporated into our pages."
Labels can also have a damaging effect on women that are sample size, in particular; 'Real woman'. It's a term exclusively used to describe women size 12 and above.
What exactly are we saying when we use it; that a woman who wears a size 8 isn't a real woman?
That due to their lighter weight, slender shape or smaller size they are not 'woman' enough?
Because that's just ridiculous.
One of my close friends is a model. Modelling is what she does for work, in the same way that writing is what I do for a living. We both have a family, relationships and friends.
We went to school and university, we have travelled. We've had bad hair days, we've looked bloated, we've looked fabulous, we've had disappointments, we've wished we were more like Gwyneth Paltrow and on more than one occasion we've eaten three tim tams in a row simply because they were in front of us.
She is a person, a woman, a daughter, a girlfriend, a sister, a friend and so many other things than simply a model. She is as much a 'real woman' as I am.
In a surprising move US Vogue released their June issue with swimsuit model Kate Upton on the cover. While she is certainly smaller than Justine LeGault and Robyn Lawley, she is most definitely bigger than the usual picks for Vogue.
Although the March issue featured singer Adele on the cover. In both cases there is absolutely no mention of size, body, shape or weight in the cover lines. If the notorious Anna Wintour can do it in Vogue, so can anyone.
If a magazine chooses to incorporate women of varying sizes in their pages it would do more for the self-esteem and mental well-being of their readers if they did so without making a song and dance about it.
Instead they should place them throughout the magazine as if it were normal... for the simple reason that it is normal.

Ode to Rise AgainstThe band spoke not to the masses,
but to those whose wrists wore slashes.
Their words lacked a semblance of formality,
but were meant for those with abnormality.
The message was for all those whose pain was immense;
it told them it was time to rise, Rise Against.
Rise Against the injustice and pain.
Defend the memory of the slain.
Stand for those who are helpless.
Always try to be selfless.
Work hard for better futures.
Treat the world's wounds with sutures.
Rise Against their pseudo-perfection.
With music, they gave us direction.
Do not let yourself be tame.
Do not give in to their game.
Fight back, but not with violence,
and do not live in silence.
Rise Against the corrupt regime.
They are not as strong as they seem.
Live only by your moral laws.
Stand up, stand out, embrace your flaws.
Arm-in-arm, we make a wall.
Together, we can stand tall.
Rise Against the fanatic;
those whose beliefs are static.
They fear our success, our progress,
and so it is us they oppress.
In time, my suffer

My dream is to inspire dreams, and to encourage imagination. To teach, and to be taught. My dream is to connect with the world around me, and to share with it what I believe, and what I treasure. So let me stop, right now, and tell you...
Thank you. Thank you for taking the time to read my words, and to live my imagination. Thank you for supporting me; for telling me what you love and what I can improve. It is your support, your words, that keep me writing, and therefor perusing my dreams. One day, when I reach that dream, I will have you to thank for it. Thank you.

In front of the grave, a boy thought of the girl he'd forsaken.
He wished this was a nightmare from which he'd awaken.
He was her high-school sweetheart,
but they had drifted apart.
Once he had left her alone,
the suicidal thoughts found a home...
On her guitar, sad notes she played,
whilst overhead, a noose had swayed.
From quivering lips, she sang one last time.
Shutting out a million thoughts, she managed a rhyme...
"Mother, father, I have a confession...
This song shall never be completed,
for I battled with depression,
and depression succeeded..."

Look at me! Sad and lost.
Ripped and bruised and all cut up,
Who will clean my palate off?
Engine, engine, number nine
Don't doubt me, I'm just fine!
Hide my wrists and legs, oh dear!
Ignore me now and just stay clear.
One, two, three, four
Always coming back for more!
Sliced up nice and glued again,
Who would ever be my friend?
Five, six, seven, eight
Who can keep their thoughts straight?
Run and jump and scream and fly,
Please just stop--stop being shy!
Pattycake, pattycake, baker's man!
Youthful dreams that go kablam!
Hardened soul and ripped out heart--
Poor, poor you without a start!
Ring around the rosy,
I feel warm and cozy.
No more, no more,
Why'd I let my heart soar?
Hope is gone and dreams are torn,
And I can't help but be forlorn.
Numbed down now and can't look back,
Killed inside with one big thwack!
The Five People You Meet On EarthWe are mortal. We are not everlasting, and our journey must someday come to an end. Whether that someday be next week or in 50 years, it is never foreseen or wanted in the slightest bit. We, in our youth, roll our eyes at the mere mention of death as if we are invincible when, in reality, death is as real to us as it is to a cancer patient. Death is the top feared in the world, above all else. What is there to fear of death but the pain of losing someone, though? We've all had that someone whom we assumed would never leave us, but is now nothing but an unadorned memory. In my case, this was my grandfather.The Five People You Meet On Earth4 years ago in Emotional More Like This
"Hey do you want to come? We're going to visit Grandpa in the hospital," my mother said, rather loudly. My grandpa had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and this was the first time my mother invited my brothers and me to come along. I hesitated, debating whether or not to go.
"Uhh... I don't think so. Next time!"
How was I to know he had only one short month left?

We have the pitiful princess
Trapped in a tower
Or they're with those bitchy step sisters
And some beyond gorgeous man comes
And sweeps her off her feet.
The princess is always beautiful
And a man's fantasy.
Luscious long, blonde hair
And the flawless height of 5'10.
Not a stray hair
And not a zit on her face.
The prince always is the dark-haired 'cutie'
And the one with those emerald green eyes.
Always taller than the blonde haired beauty
And always compassionate with his horse of white.
I'm not your average princess-
Hell no, I'm not even similar to a princess.
I like rock music, not classical,
I'm tan, not pale,
And I'm not always nice- I can be a bitch.
I may not be your princess charming...
But I'll always be your rebel darlin'.

Summer break was over for Brittany. She had to go back to Indiana and go to school. For Brittany's last day everyone spent the whole day together. They went out to town, going to places they've never went too.

Carson sums it up perfectly in the latest Journal of Libertarian Studies:
"I think a description of the functioning of a free market calls for the subjunctive case, not the indicative."
Sheldon Richman - 4/25/2006
Another example is the defense of the oil companies. While I am skeptical that there is explicit collusion going on, we should not forget that the companies work in a neomercantilist context full of privilege and protection, not least of which is the tax-funded program to secure their sources of crude. This not to say that supply and demand don't operate, but rather that they operate under unnatural state-sponsored constraints.
Common Sense - 4/25/2006
Thank you, Sheldon, for highlighting this issue for readers of this blog. I agree with the views you express. The issue is quite complicated, but libertarians ignore it at our own peril.

Thanks for the link, Sheldon. Speaking of corporate culture, incidentally, I've seen Fish! Philosophy banners cropping up all over the place where I work in the past few weeks. Much like being told you've got "a real purty mouth," Fish! is an indication you're about to have something done to you you probably won't like.

Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Steff Gaulter | 26 May 2011 12:59 GMT | Environment, Humanitarian crises, Weather, US & Canada, United States
After another round of deadly tornados, the weather in the States is finally having a breather.
This latest batch of tornadoes included one which destroyed parts of the city of Joplin in Missouri. It is estimated that this one tornado alone caused over $1m worth of damage. So far 126 people have been confirmed dead, and hundreds more are injured.
These storms follow hot on the heels of April's severe weather, which became the most active month for tornadoes on record, and over 600 were reported. Severe weather was seen on April 3-5, 8-11 and 25-28.
At the end of April there was a period of calm in the US weather, but the tornadoes started again on May 17, and have been steadily increasing ever since.
Wednesday was the most active day, when 81 tornadoes were reported. This number is likely to be an over-estimation of the actual number, as often two people will report the same storm, but clearly a large number of tornadoes were formed that day.
It is important to remember that while tornadoes generally make the headlines, they are not the only hazard that the US has been dealing with. The severe thunderstorms have also produced giant hail and damaging gusts of wind. Trees and power lines have been pulled down, even without a tornado being present.
It is unknown how long this quiet weather will last, as the forecast models cannot agree on the longer range forecasts. However, given that the tornado season lasts until mid July, there are almost certainly more storms still to come.

One in five Canterbury dairy farms fails to meet environmental standards for effluent disposal, a new report says.
Environment Canterbury's (ECan) annual dairy-shed effluent report found more farms fully complied with environmental standards from 39.6 per cent in 2006-07 to 45.8% in 2007-08. It also recorded an increase in the number with significant or major non-compliance problems (20%, up from 17.7% last year).
Major problems include ponding of effluent, waste being dumped into waterways or nitrogen overload.
One farmer has been fined $8500 for environmental breaches and another court case is pending.
About a third of the 696 farms monitored had minor non-compliance problems.
The report, released yesterday, said there had been little change in compliance rates for the past five years.
It said farmers learnt from their mistakes. More than 50% of properties that breached standards had mended their ways on reinspection.
However, more infringement and abatement notices had been issued, leaving ECan to ponder why offending rates had remained consistent.
ECan regulations director Kim Drummond said the council had decided to involve farmers and environmental groups in trying to solve the problem.
"We all want dairy farms to be 100% compliant with the rules, and indeed encourage them to move beyond compliance and step up to best practice. That's the ultimate gain here," he said.
Initial results from the 2008-09 survey showed similar rates of consent breaches.
"I think it might go a little deeper than saying there is a good initiative there that has yet to bear fruit," he said. "I think the challenge is to unite all these initiatives so they are all pushing in the same direction, and getting a little bit more of the jigsaw puzzle to come together on this. One thing on its own is not enough here."
The rapid growth in conversions of farms to dairying and a high staff turnover were identified in the report as two possible factors for pollution rates remaining constant.
Dairy company Fonterra discussed the problem with ECan last year and sent staff to visit the worst polluters to try to help clean up their farms.
Fonterra sustainable production general manager John Hutchings said effluent was normally irrigated on to paddocks as fertiliser.
Often the problem could be as simple as a spray machine travelling too slowly and causing waste to pool in one place rather than covering a whole paddock.
He said Fonterra's work on environmental issues had crossed over with ECan's survey period, which meant any impact would not show up until next year's survey.
"We have a team of sustainable dairy specialists throughout New Zealand and we have just appointed another one in Canterbury as part of our commitment to get this right," Hutchings said.
Farmers' group Dairy New Zealand said the report's finding of no real progress in reducing levels of non-compliance was a big concern.
Chief executive Tim Mackle said the industry was working hard with farmers to help improve infrastructure and management techniques.
"There are some encouraging trends emerging, including the reduction in the incidence of major effluent ponding, which shows farm staff are aware of the need to check this," he said.
"Plus, the report notes that when compared nationally, Canterbury still has a low level of direct discharge to surface water occurring."
Fish and Game Nelson-Marlborough manager Neil Deans said 7.4% of all dairy farms that significantly failed to meet their obligations had not improved a year later.
Compliance with consents was a fundamental requirement to conduct any business, and the report highlighted shortcomings in current processes, he said.

I've only recently started playing in the on line chess section (actually I thought I had played here before but it tells me I haven't). I played 2 games, won both, but it tells me I won one and lost the other. On my online chess page (where it details games I'm playing or have played) it shows 2 wins in one part of the page and 1 win and 1 loss elsewhere on the same page!!!
I play on an Android phone but the bug appears when I use a normal PC to view the info. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is this something that only functions correctly when a privaledged member? It's not a huge issue to me but this seems like pretty basic stuff and it really should be working.
maybe an old stat ?
There are different categories..., perhaps it is that (Blitz, Live, Online)...
You have played 4, won 3, lost one, but two of the wins were unrated and so don't count towards your stats.
As a basic member you only see games from your last 3 months, so this loss wont be shown to you.
Thanks, that explains it. I was certain I'd played on the site before but it showed nothing - so I assumed I was playing on another site. It's a shame this info isn't easily viewable. So I have to pay £30 / year to simply see the games I've played? This does seem a little excessive (actually I nearlly spat my coffee out) - I guess the servers are quite expensive on whatever planet chesscom resides on. This is a shame as I'd like to watch the training videos but heyho
Is it possible to restrict my on line games to just rated games?

Braeger Chevy helped make these videos
We are still working to obtain content for your car, however the video above is believed to have similar characteristics as your car.
This video shows you how to add transmission fluid to your 2000 Toyota Avalon. Before adding transmission fluid, make sure that your engine was running when you checked the fluid level. If the transmission fluid level on your Avalon is low, you need to add fluid through the dipstick tube. Toyota has been developed sophisticated transmissions through years and it is critical that you add the exact type of transmission fluid stipulated by your owner's manual (typically in the back of the manual in a section titled Fluid Capacities.) When adding transmission fluid to your Avalon, be sure to add it slowly as the transmission fluid capacity is reached quickly and it is difficult to remove excess fluid if you overfill.
If you are having problems with the transmission in your Avalon, such as clunky shifting or hesitation, check the fluid level first - it is amazing how many drivers pay thousands of dollars for transmission work when a half quart of transmission fluid would have fixed the problem.

AT&T Surpasses 1,000 Alternative Fuel Vehicles
AT&T is making progress toward its goal of having 15,000 fuel-efficient vehicles after adding alternative energy vehicle No. 1,000.
With a corporate fleet of 77,000 vehicles, that means about 1.2 percent of AT&T's fleet uses alternative energy.
The company is spending $565 million on the plan to add fuel-efficient vehicles, which started in March of 2009 and will run through 2018, according to a press release.
Vehicle No. 1,000 was a compressed natural gas van deployed in Oakland, Calif.
The overall conversion to more alternative fuel and fuel-efficient vehicles is expected to save AT&T 49 million gallons of gasoline over the 10-year deployment period and reduce carbon emissions 211,000 metric tons.
As part of the plan, AT&T will replace about 8,000 gasoline-powered vehicles with transport that runs on CNG. Additionally, the company says it will replace 7,100 passenger vehicles with alternative-fuel models by 2019.
Other national companies are taking strides to make their fleets more energy efficient.
UPS says it operates one of the largest private fleets of alternative fuel vehicles in its industry with more than 1,900.

Salem Fire Protection District Open House TuesdayThe Salem Fire Protection District is holding an open house from six to eight tonight. Fire Chief Roger Mann says various emergency services agencies will have equipment and displays set up.
"We're going to have static displays of equipment. People can come in and ask questions about them and see what we use. We're also going to have a couple demonstrations. There's going to be a room burn. We're going to have furniture in it and we're going to light it, let people watch how long it takes to develop and what we have to do to put it out. We're going to have a class on fire extinguishers and show the proper way to use them. It will be a lot of fun so they can see what the fire extinguishers do", said Mann.
Mann says extrication equipment will also be on display. There will also be games for the kids along with hot dogs, popcorn and soda for everyone. Mann notes anyone interested in learning more about joining the fire department is also welcome and can get their questions answered.
Among the other agencies that will have displays set up will be emergency medical services, 9-1-1, Salem Police Department and the Salem Department of Emergency Management Services. Salem C.E.R.T. that trains individuals to help their family and neighborhoods in the event of an emergency will have a sign-up for the C.E.R.T. training class that starts Thursday evening at the Department of Emergency Services office in the Salem Police Department building at 201 South Rotan.

Montreal Impact sign Hernán Bernardello as DP to plug emergent defensive holes
Jul 24, 2013, 12:40 AM EDT
After the Montreal Impact conceded 12 goals in the last five games, including a 4-0 loss to the New York Red Bulls that dropped it out of first place, the club announced a defensive reinforcement on Tuesday in Hernán Bernardello.
The 26-year-old Argentine defensive midfielder, who made over 100 appearances in both the Primera División and Spain's La Liga, signed a one-year deal with a club option for two further seasons. Pending receipt of his international transfer certificate, Bernardello should be available on Saturday against Sporting Kansas City.
On a conference call with reporters, Impact sporting director Nick De Santis didn't seem panicked about the defensive situation, but he did seem to place some blame on Montreal's defense rather than its attack for its recent poor form.
"We've always created enough chances to say that we could have probably scored one or two goals or even three goals. We have enough offensive qualities to make plays," he said. "On the defensive end … it's now mid-season, and it's getting hotter, and we have to be aware of that. I strongly believe that another center midfielder at Hernán's level and his age would bring a lot to the team. It's going to let the team breathe a lot."
De Santis said Bernardello would provide the Impact with flexibility to play with either one holding midfielder, in its preferred 4-1-4-1 formation, or two. He highlighted Bernardello's ability to shield the back four and allow other players, such as his presumed partner at the position, Patrice Bernier, to get forward more often.
(More: Montréal switches back to their spring set-up, stops the flood of goals)
He also expects Bernardello to fit in well with the team, even though he has a somewhat colorful past. When he left Spanish team Almería to return to Argentina to Colón de Santa Fe, the Andalusians sued him for breach of contract.
The club claimed that he signed a contract extension, and because he failed to turn up for preseason training, he owed the club a €30 million termination fee. Almería believed it had him under contract until 2015, not only until 2012.
In the end, he played the 2012-13 season with Colón, and De Santis pleaded ignorance to the charges leveled against his new player:
I don't even know what you're talking about, but if there were problems before, I have no idea of them. I know that the player is with us right now, and we're extremely happy to have him. … Trust me, we did a lot of homework on the player, on his personality, on his attitude, will he fit in within the group. … He's a good kid. He's committed. He's responsible. He has a big motivation to play in MLS and to play for Montreal, and I think he's going to fit in very well with the group going forward.
The circumstances under which Bernardello signed with the Impact are also unusual, as his contract ran out after his only season at Colón. As a result, there was no transfer fee, and De Santis said the player "basically belongs to an investor's group."
No matter the strange context, if Bernardello can shore up a defense that has given up nearly half of its season's goals in the last handful of matches, the deal will be considered worthwhile.

Death sentence for Jimbo
Judge slams dog's owner, calls her 'deluded'FLORENCE KERR AND ADEN MILES
Relevant offers
National News
It is likely the next time Carolyn King sees her beloved pet dog Jimbo, the rabbit-killing staffordshire terrier will be dead.
After a two-year court battle that cost South Waikato ratepayers more than $76,000, a district court judge yesterday ordered Jimbo be destroyed.
And Judge Chris McGuire blasted Jimbo's owner, Mrs King, calling her "deluded", as he sent the dog to death row for attacking two rabbits - one of which died - in 2010 and later viciously attacking another dog while in Tokoroa pound.
"It has been a fixation, it's been a crusade, call it what you want. She (Carolyn King) is deluded."
Judge McGuire - sitting in Tokoroa District Court last night - said the evidence against the american staffordshire terrier was overwhelming.
Mrs King was convicted in 2011 under the dog control act and an order was issued for Jimbo's destruction. A High Court ruling last year overturned that decision.
However, at yesterday's rehearing Judge McGuire said: "You have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to see that there have been some horrific attacks (from similar breeds of dog) in this country and they are massively over-represented."
The most damning witness evidence came from the rabbit's owners, Cassandra and Stanley Barlow, who positively identified Jimbo as the dog who attacked their pets in the early hours of November 14, 2010, he said.
"I have no reason whatsoever to disbelieve their evidence. I believe beyond all reasonable doubt that Jimbo is the dog that attacked the rabbits."
In his ruling he also slammed Mrs King as being "deluded" when she gave evidence earlier in the hearing. "In the witness stand she became an advocate of her own ability . . . In my view she fell short," he told the court.
"Mrs King failed to meet the threshold and therefore I order for the dog to be destroyed."
The court also heard of Jimbo's attack on another dog, Justice, while being held at the Tokoroa pound. "Jimbo metaphorically climbed over broken glass to get to that dog. That's what I accept," he said.
Judge McGuire has also ordered Mrs King pay $2000 towards Jimbo's maintenance costs.
But his ruling was not readily accepted by some in the gallery, with one Jimbo supporter, Allie Marshall, hurling obscenities at the court.
Outside court, Mrs King wept and had to be consoled by supporters as the judge's ruling - and the realisation her beloved Jimbo would soon be dead - sank in. Speaking on her behalf, her lawyer Scott Ngapo-Lipscombe told the Waikato Times she wouldn't appeal the decision.
"However, my client does have genuine concerns about the way the council runs its dog control section and she will be forwarding submissions to the council to encourage them to review their practices and procedures.
"Mrs King has also decided to stop her animal rescue work."
Mr Ngapo-Lipscombe said the council would return Jimbo to Mrs King once he was euthanased.
South Waikato District Council chief executive David Hall said the council had been "vindicated" by the decision.
"We are obviously pleased with the outcome. Council's stance has been vindicated by the judge's decision.
"We are of the view that Jimbo is a danger to the community and the community is now a safer place."
Mr Hall said the $76,000 in costs accrued in dealing with Jimbo was unfortunate.
"We take no pleasure in how long this case has taken and the amount of money spent on it.
"As a council our responsibility is to ensure public safety, and the judge vindicated our stance.
"It was never our aim to prosecute Carrie King, it was to have Jimbo destroyed.
"It is unfortunate that under the current laws that exist that we had to go down this path."

It's even more unfortunate that he took this album as an opportunity to declare himself the Big Boss (of reggaeton, one would presume), mainly because the shortcomings of El Cartel: The Big Boss wouldn't be as evident if not for such arrogance. He begins the album by saying (without a trace of sarcasm), "You know that I'm needed/You felt a void without me/There's only one!" Yeah. Okay, Daddy. Then there's the chorus, which is simply, "The king is back. " In "En sus marcas, listo, fuera" ("On your mark, get set, go"), Yankee goes back to his bread and butter: high-energy reggaeton with references to street racing.
It's easily the best track, but it's no high-octane "Gasolina." The tune "Cambio" is second to board the lifeboat on this sinking album, which should have been called El Titanic. "Ella me levantó," which is effective in conjuring a merengue hook and mambo, and "Fuera de control" are salvageable, but their ultra radio-friendly attitude makes them indistinguishable from most reggaeton already on the air. After that, El Cartel hits the wall.
If not for the guest appearances (Akon, Nicole the Pussycat Doll, will.i.am, Hector "El Father," and Fergie), the rest of the tracks could easily be mistaken for one excruciatingly long ode to lackluster lyrics and lackadaisical rhymes.

The Sofia metro section between Tsarigradsko Shosse and the Sofia Airport is half-ready, the mayor of the capital Yordanka Fandakova said Thursday.
By April 2015 passengers will be able to travel along the new section in the Sofia districts of Mladost 4 and Druzhba, Nova Tv reports.
With the launch of the new section next year, the passenger volume is expected to increase by 90 thousand people. Because of the construction of the metro line, some boulevards and small streets in the area have been repaired.
The project is mainly implemented with European funds.
