Isn't it about time we change the patent laws, especially for intellectual property and in markets like Technology and medicine. This way we can have some competition, and get some cheaper gadgets. Apple has pretty much patented the ability to patent.

Jeans... ooo if only Diesel ever had sales.

Sucks, but this is life. Its not like your mom dies and you get really mad for forgetting to pay her life insurance policy, or even forgetting to take a policy out in the first place. The things that are truly important in life become evident by your actions and thoughts, you will do whatever you can to protect what…

@mschneider: no no no, I don't mean to offend, really. I know Brazil is a cultural melting pot in its own right, I'm more concerned with being targeted. I was blatantly targeted when I was in Egypt, and I'm not an in your face AMERICAN!. Just wondering, I'm planning on going soon.

I'm not sure if anyone has been but if you have: is this common? As a 6' tall white man with blue eyes... would I be risking it in Brazil? I've been all over North Africa and Europe, and I've never seen anything like this.

Man Phineas really grew up fast? Hey, where's Perry?

800mhz??!? aren't there already dual core 1 ghz. cell phone processors? It seems like HTC just has 30-40 "new" phones sitting around at any given time and they just dole them out at will. These features seem paltry in comparison to other Froyo running android products.

@113Doctor: So you're telling me that if the costs to mine ore that yields 2 pounds of gold per ton of material suddenly dropped from $1000 per ton to $100 per ton, that gold prices are going to go down because we keep creating paper money, no. Thats just bad logic. Pricing of gold has very little to due with the…

May have been discussed earlier... what's the point? Making gold this readily available will arguably drive prices down, unless the demand for it maintains. The primary reason gold is so highly valued is due to inflation and ballooning costs of production. There is still billions of pounds of gold ore un-mined around…

Fucking amazing... really.. makes me happy. I'll gladly keep paying my ridiculous insurance premium for me and my family as long as stories like this exist. There's a doctor out there who deserves a pat on the back and the handshake of gratitude for being so damn Epic.

Awesome... these guys should just team up, buy an island together, unite their technologies, and form the CRIME SYNDICATE OF AMERIKA!:: Wall Street Edition

@Maave: Me too... I've been slowly (very slowly) collecting weapons for some time. In a few years, when my son gets older, I'm going to convert a 15' x 15' room in my basement into a full library... with a plate steel door, full halon fire protection, and a secret wall unti that pops open to reveal my hidden cache'…

@CubemonkeyNYC: I understand that, Its just odd to me. Half a billion dollars for this ship, and it still rusts. Functionality isn't the issue in my mind, its longevity and maintenance.

Thats actually, not a terrible price for such new tech. in a "laptop".

Note: the gopro camera is attached to an Army Flight Medic, most likely the medic carrying the injured soldier is carrying him to a helicopter to be extracted back to base. The dust indicates this as well.

@★☆★rasprenkle★☆★:

It always amazes me the amount of rust on vessels like this, you'd think after 100 years of making ships out of metal, iron, alloys... someone would have figured out how to eliminate rust

This is awesome.. YAY identical twins in mid air!!

This is EPIC. The complications are endless though, I wonder how they compensate for the oxygen deprivation to the brain and vital organs, they must cool very very quickly to overcome this. And from the reading above, it sounds like surgery is implemented during the suspended animation phase. Imagine doing an entire…

what the hell is his testicle doing so far down the shaft... unless... nope thats not normal.
