...weeks ago, San Jose-based TiVo Inc. won the patent for Personal Video Recording. Wall Street approved and the stock shot up 72% in a day. That might have been because TiVo could now theoretically ask Microsoft, owners of Ultimate TV, and Philips, owners of Replay TV, to take out licenses.

...thousands of protesters are expected to descend upon Quebec City to vent their spleen at capitalism, globalization and the evils of free trade and to demonstrate their conviction that the FTAA will make things worse instead of better. A minority have vowed to shut down the meeting, in a replay of the chaos that beset the 1999 gathering of the World Trade Organization in Seattle - a threat apparently serious enough to persuade the Canadian summit organizers to turn the meeting site into a 10-sq-km redoubt...
