How is this different from hiring low-paid staff to log traffic and follow suspicious looking people? And looking at checkout sales summaries is not enough - some places might want to know simply how many people walk in/out. Or maybe identify locations in a store where people look for an item but don't actually pick up something to buy - this could mean insufficient product choice or low inventory. I'm sure software hooked into already existent cameras is more efficient than minimum wage patrol staff who will usually get most everything wrong.
Some gyms charge lower monthly fees if you only show up during off-peak hours. Then they get you to pay for classes you go to at peak times. So what would I say? Maybe I guess I bought the wrong monthly plan?
Just 2 or 3 fixed wide angle cameras in the conference room, automatic identification of speakers in the video, and text-only transcripts or video annotated with subtitle-like real time text for people who are just observing and don't have a headset. This is also an archive recording of the meeting. Robotic cameras in a conference room would just be a playful annoyance.
The DVD rental by mail business is a dead end, and Netflix can more easily sell it off after they figure out streaming deals. I never understood how they make money - I pay about $8/month for renting a max of 1 DVD, and I get about 2 DVDs by mail each week. That's 8 each month, and with postage/envelopes each way at about $0.50, that's $8.00 - not much profit here. I suspect Netflix wants to emphasize to movie studios that DVDs are a dying business, and to get their streaming act together.
Try to get involved in at least one or two design team projects, which are often available even starting as a freshman - not just seniors. Be an expert in one or more areas - there's always a need for a good Powerpoint person in these teams, for example. And also learn Matlab or Comsol or something like that. Just know something and be an expert in something that nobody else is good at. The other team members and also even professors will seek you out. Note that ME and CS don't mix so well, unless you intend to go into ME CAD tool development. But knowledge of ME software design tools and basic Office tools is extremely valuable.
So in their "model" did the 10% population all simultaneously adopt a belief? Otherwise, how did they arrive at 10%, without the population at some time having say just 9% of the belief? Is there a divine intervention, ID, quantum leap, spontaneous event?
This is an iPhone 3, with latest ios possible, no jailbreak. I just ran the speedtest.net app, and I consistently get 0.010 Mbps down, and 0.00 Mbps up on the AT&T 3G. (Yes, that 10 Kbps down, and less than 10 Kbps up) An iphone 4 and an HTC aria appear to get similar performance with web page downloads (I didn't try speedtest). So - this is even way below dialup days. (We live in the DC/Baltimore area, about 1.5 miles from 2 interstates, it's 6 pm, I have 4 bars, and I'm about 1/2 mile from two cell towers). Note with the iphone on wifi in the house it's 5 Mbps down / 8 Mbps up.
Boeing simply wants to divert attention from their own design/maintenance problems they've been having recently that have caused serious accidents. But I thought the main source of accidents/mishaps is really pilots. And PEDs have caused zero accidents.
So would it be legal to write an iPhone app to recognize gestures and then display who patented that gesture? Then if I create a new gesture I would be able to tell if it's legal? Or how about a synthetic gesture generator that would create and automatically fill out a patent application for all possible gestures, for say n numbers of strokes?

Yes I know, the College Board is Big Business, but there's a well-defined curriculum. And it got my daughter out of having to take some kind of "Intro to Computer Science" as a college freshman. However I'm not sure if home-schoolers are into AP classes.
When you sell a stock you need to have some kind of receipt showing the cost of stock purchase, so this is something that needs to be kept around. I have some stocks that I purchased >10 years ago, and I have printed receipts somewhere, just in case of an audit. With Etrade they deleted online transactions after a few years, but now there's an SEC rule that they need to keep the cost basis for purchases and other transactions.

"Greater loss of privacy" sounds like "almost pregnant" or "greater loss of virginity"

They will next try to patent CEO pay directly correlated with a company's performance, since there's no prior art here.

For less than $100 you can't expect too much, but maybe xterm?

".. with some in the industry". Huh? I would think the "industry" would be delighted that any documents related to any investigation are destroyed.
which seems to be the most common solution that's offered on fix-your-own-windows-problems forums

33kbps at most on AT&T: watching simple web pages load on an iphone is painful and reminiscent of dialup days
