The Importance of Diets Today

The “Intermittent Wiper” Lesson For Creating Convergent Inventions
by: Geoff Ficke This weekend my wife and I took in a movie. The film was preceded by a movie trailer touting a soon to be released production based on the invention of the 'intermittent windshield wiper'.

Robert Kearns was a university professor and an engineer with a passion for ...Read the rest of this post »

Law School Rankings
Law School Rankings - The Biggest Bunch of Bunk Since Un-sliced Bread Although I understand that this can be very difficult to do, you must view the popular published law school rankings skeptically. These rankings are not only untrustworthy, but mislead students into thinking they need to attend a highly ranked school or they will be second rate lawyers do to their "substandard" law school education.

PART I: What is Accreditation and Who Decides?
