34.6 percent

There are 94 federal courts in the U.S., but for those who want to sue a company over patent infringement — a strategy that is a lynchpin of the controversial business model of so-called “patent trolls” — it’s clear where to go. Between 20014 and 2016, 34.6 percent of patent cases were heard in the Eastern District of Texas, a district that has been kinder to infringement claims than others. A case before the Supreme Court could cut down on this kind of forum shopping. [Quartz]

70 percent

Projected growth in the global population of Muslims between 2015 and 2060, compared to 32 percent overall population growth. The only other faith projected to meet or exceed global growth is Christianity, with 34 percent growth in population size. [Pew Research Center]

84.7 percent

As of this morning, taser-making company Taser is now called Axon, mainly because they’re diversifying to be a body camera business.

$7.5 billion

Panera Bread sold to German firm JAB — which also owns Krispy Kreme and Einstein Bros. Bagels — for $7.5 billion. With Chipotle stumbling in the fast casual restaurant sector after E. coli incidents, Panera’s doing very well in the market. [CNN]
