The average joe probably knows all the details of the a particular play during 1984 by a Pittsburg NFL team.
[I for one, have no understanding of why the rest of the United States is so damn fond of watching 'football']
F1ST P0ST!
Or did everyone else get infected?
Who is going to buy $1.6 trillion of bonds from a country on the verge of defaulting on its existing debts and/or lowering its credit rating?
If you haven't diversified out of dollars and into something else by now, you are screwed.
Well, it's a surely a good thing then that my investment is my house (real estate!).
Devaluing the dollar might be one way to end the real estate crisis!
Indeed. Only non-mathematicians could mistake "x^3" as being "e^x".
[Write out the Taylor series for "e^x" and you will see that this mistake is extremely silly]
What kind of voter are you if you can't think critically, or if you don't understand politics and science? Can you manage your financial decisions without and understanding of math and business? Think about what a better neighbor, parent, and traveler you would be, if you could speak a foreign language.
Answer: an ethnocentric American Republican.
My company values mid-career hires much more than the 'new guys'.
During my first four years (hired as a 'new guy'), I mastered our ~600k line codebase, solved more than 100 difficult software bugs, . For a new product, I was the main contributor to the feasibility study, successfully proposed radial new engineering design (that avoided many technical issues of the traditional design), and effectively functioned as the lead developer.
I also oversee 4 people, three of which make 30%-50% MORE* income than I do. WTF?!?!
BTW, I'm open to employment offers!
The way I look at it, Osama bin Laden is no more evil than George W. Bush.

There. Fixed that for ya.
The claims require a physical implementation (e.g. "An information storage and retrieval system").
You mean the algorithm has to be implemented/executed on a physical device? How difficult is that? Let's assume that a patent doesn't restrict the target algorithm to a restricted form of implementation such as a digital watch processor, a cell phone, etc. How is this different than patenting the math itself? Moreover, restricting the form of implementation would only necessitate that the patent submitter submit several patents, one for each conceivable application of his algorithm.
When patents become as broad as claiming usage of algorithm 'x' in 'a communication system', is this really any different than patenting algorithm 'x' itself? Does it matter if 'a communication system', is a remote-control changing the channel on a TV with IR LED pulses, a 4G cell phone, a low-earth orbiting satellite link, or tin cans connected by string?
It's probably also AGAINST THE LAW. Christ. Submitter is an unmitigated moron. People are going to jail for HIPPA violations and you want to dump any old crap on the hospital network for a CALENDAR? Just use an external web based thing ya moron. Try Google Apps.
Did you read your comment before posting?
Do you really think that using Google Apps to maintain appointments {which might be medical related such as "do 'x' surgery on patient 'y'" are acceptable under HIPPA?
You must be one of those people who use their personal laptop on the company LAN and use GMail for 'saving' company documents...
This may be why we had a record 1.6% deliberate donkey vote in our last federal election.
Who are you to say that a donkey couldn't run a country better than previously elected humans?
The Vatican's Catholic Church tells everyone (and I mean everyone) that the entire reason for life is to be tempted to sin, but instead to have faith in Jesus and avoid sin.
Even if this self-pitying myth about "Satan's war on the church" were actual truth, the Church should embrace it. Because it's "god's plan" to offer us temptation for us to refuse. The Internet is doing god's work.
Basically, what you are saying is that if I were to obey the Church's teachings, then we shouldn't go to church!
Interestingly, if you replace 'Satanism' with 'terrorism', and replace 'Jesus' with 'X political party', you have just perfectly described many national governments. I guess separation of "church and state" really means "divide and conquer".
Imagine if the performance of the master bedroom were a major area to be monitored...
If I lived in Arkansas, and I only drive on local roads in state, and I do 3-4000 miles a year doing so,... why would this be justified by either Constitution or 10th amendment?
Probably because your state built local roads where you live, you are not having to drive out of state to get to where your going! Thus interstate commerce is being prevented and thus falls under federal regulation!
IANAL!
You are in a maze of little twisting passages, all alike.
