Justices Rule Aereo Violates Broadcasters’ Copyrights http://online.wsj.com/articles/supreme-court-rules-against-aereo-sides-with-broadcasters-in-copyright-case-1403705891 Interesting ruling today. Kind of reminds you of the old NAPSTER daze when pirating muzak was king, and paying for music was passe.This is interesting.

So the only difference is that you got someone else to record…

Nordic Poles Boost Artery-Disease Patients’ Walking – WSJ: Lots of studies show that simply getting up and about several times a week can be really, really good for you. This is pretty cool.

In the meanwhile, there is so much salt in things like soup, that even then “low salt” soups are 25 to 50% of US Daily recommended.

WSJ. Eveything that can be invented, has been.

ByBizMan

Economists Debate Whether Technology Will Save the World. WSJ article.It’s true. Everything that could be invented, has been. Right?Well, there’s the 11 inventions posted last week. And there is 3d printing, all the applications of nanotechnology…I’m anxious to see what happens with the death of the computer chip, as we hit the limits of silicon… The next generation of computing should be very interesting. With that type of power at your fingertips, the nature of computing…

Repost from IPzine… BioLite BaseCamp Stove | Turn Fire into Electricity by BioLite — Kickstarter: I love it. But only 62 hours to get in on the KickStarter offer. They are at twice goal with $800k+ and 3,000 backers. Yes, it was DARK in Miami, when Hurricane Andrew came through South Miami/Homestead on August 24, 1992. Well, afterwards really.
