When you’re purchasing new carpeting for your home improvement or remodeling project, you want to go to a carpet store with a strong reputation for customer service, affordable prices, and integrity. With a full line of carpeting in various colors and styles at competitive prices, you know you’re able to find what you’re looking for.

Unlike other types of carpet, Berber carpet fibers feature tiny loops rather than small strands. This style of carpeting can be traced back to the Berber tribes of Africa that still create these traditional carpets today. Unlike the traditional style, most Berber carpeting sold by our store is made of synthetic and blended fibers like nylon, olefin, and polyester. Berber is a popular choice for commercial environments as well as homes due to its incredible durability and longevity. Because of its looped fibers, it is able to stand up to more wear and foot traffic. These loops also make it more spill resistant than other types of flooring because the fibers don’t soak up liquid as quickly, allowing you to soak up the spill before a stain can set in.
Carpeting makes the ideal flooring for commercial use. This is because today’s carpeting is manufactured to perform. We offer brands and styles of carpeting flooring that resist stains and withstand heavy foot traffic. Ask one of our experts to come to your business with lots of samples, so you can show you how each looks in the proper setting. The warmth and softness of carpeting makes your business look welcoming and appealing to your customers and employees.
Add an area rug or two to each room of your home to add pizazz to the space. We offer a variety of brands, styles, shapes, and sizes of area rugs - including Karastan - to complement the rest of your carpeting and furnishings and to protect the flooring. Place an area rug in a busy space to lessen the wear and tear on the floor beneath it or put one underneath a grouping of armchairs and an end table to designate a conversation area.
Professional installation by our crew is also a good idea because many carpeting manufacturers’ warranties only cover products installed by a qualified professional. By allowing our skilled team to handle the installation, you have the benefit of properly installed carpets plus the knowledge that should anything unfortunate happen, you’re more likely to be within the requirements of the warranty. Best of all, you’re able to relax or concentrate on the rest of your home improvement projects while we handle the installation.
After ripping out your old flooring, the technicians clean and level the subfloor and lay the padding. They measure carefully to use as few seams as possible. Those that they use are cut in a way to look invisible. They make sure that the carpeting is stretched smoothly and adheres properly. With such quality installation, you can be sure that your new carpets look stunning year after year.
Contact us today to beautify your home with the color and softness of carpet flooring. We proudly serve residential and commercial customers in Valrico, South Brandon, Fish Hawk, Riverview, and New Tampa, Florida.

An airplane flying out of Vnukovo Airport on Saturday had engine failure shortly after takeoff and made an emergency landing at Domodedovo Airport, killing two people and injuring 83.
Two engines failed on the passenger jet after it took off at about 3 p.m. Saturday, and the plane made the emergency landing as its third engine cut out, skidding off the snowy runway and breaking into sections, officials said.
The plane, a Tupolev Tu-154 belonging to Dagestan Airlines, was carrying at least 155 people when it landed at Domodedovo, said a spokesman for the Federal Air Transportation Agency, Sergei Izvolsky.
The cause of the engine failure was unclear, Izvolsky said. But recent crashes involving the aging Tu-154 aircraft have prompted the Russian carrier Aeroflot to stop using it.
Officials said 155 people were aboard the Dagestan Airlines plane, but the Emergency Situations Ministry said in a web site statement that the aircraft was carrying 168 passengers and eight crew members.
The plane had taken off from another Moscow hub, Vnukovo, and was en route to Makhachkala, the capital of Dagestan, officials said. Federal aviation agency spokesman Sergei Izvolsky said the pilot received signals that engines had cut out about 80 kilometers into the flight at an altitude of 9,100 meters and requested an emergency landing at Domodedovo.
Federal officials said two people were killed, and Health and Social Development Minister Tatyana Golikova said in a web site statement that 83 injured people were taken to five hospitals.
The Investigative Committee said in a website statement that two engines had initially cut out.
The committee said on its web site that "the plane wheeled off the runway and broke up after jumping up on uneven ground."
A previous statement by the Investigative Committee had said the plane slammed into buildings after touching down.
Passenger Vitaly Chumak was quoted by Interfax as saying the plane broke into three parts after landing and barely missed a fence.
In September, a Tu-154 airliner was carrying 72 passengers and nine crew when it suffered an electrical system failure while flying from the northern Siberian town of Polyarnyi to Moscow. President Dmitry Medvedev bestowed awards on the pilot, who landed the plane and avoided casualties, despite rolling into a forest outside an abandoned military base.
The Tu-154 has been the workhorse of both Soviet and post-Soviet civilian aviation, first entering service in the 1970s. But after a series of crashes involving the aging fleet raised safety concerns, flagship carrier Aeroflot recently withdrew all of its Tu-154s from service, with the last flight in January.
The midrange jet remains, however, the mainstay of smaller airlines across Russia and the former Soviet Union. It is banned from parts of Europe because of its excessive engine noise.
The plane that crashed in heavy fog earlier this year, killing Polish President Lech Kaczynski, also was a Tu-154.
On Saturday, Domodedovo Airport switched scheduled flights to a second runway, and normal service wasn't affected, officials said in televised comments.

Choosing an alarm company is an important part of protecting your workplace from threatening situations such as intrusion and fire. And with so many options, selecting the right company may seem like a daunting task. Here are seven easy steps for finding a reputable and experienced alarm company.
The easiest way to find a trust-worthy company is through a personal referral. Use family members, friends and trusted neighbors in your building or area who have alarm systems as resources. Find out about their experiences with alarm companies, which company they selected and why.
When you speak with potential companies, ask them if their employees are trained and by the Electronic Security Association‘s (ESA) National Training School (NTS). Security professionals that are certified through the NTS have completed extensive training in all forms of electronic security. Trained and certified professionals often yield more efficient and higher quality work than those who are not certified.
You can find a trusted ESA member company in your area here. Member companies of ESA are aware of the newest technologies in video surveillance, access control, fire, intrusion detection and home automation and have often been trained at NTS. ESA member companies must adhere to a strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct, which were put in place to protect consumers.
Some states require that security professionals who install security systems be licensed. Licensed professionals are trained and certified, which can reduce the risk of accidental and non-working alarms due to faulty installation. If applicable, ask potential companies if licensing is required in your state and if it is, ask for proof to ensure their licenses are up to date.
Once you have narrowed your search down to three trusted companies, schedule meetings with a representative from each prospective company. Be sure to ask for the name of the person with whom you will be meeting. Upon the arrival of each representative, ask for proper company identification. Your consultation should consist of a building inspection and security recommendations for your property. Always ask for the quote for your alarm system in writing.
After selecting an alarm company, read through your contract. Discuss the terms and address any questions you have with a company representative. Never feel pressured to sign anything and be cautious of companies that are too persistent.
Selecting the right company can bring you the protection you and your employees deserve. If you want the best service, choose an ESA member company for all of you security needs.

The site is in the process of being built (how 1995!) so forgive some incomplete features. In particular, the location search is not functional (though it was until recently so i think I can get it fixed soon). I haven't figured out quite how to handle the brands for which the stores are dealers. Don't let that stop you from adding stores.
Note: The issue with the seller directory not permitting exploration past countries with no listed states or provinces has been fixed. Thank you for your patience.
Thanks for checking out the Pen Shop Directory!

Photography is one of the main hobbies here at Halley, but as the light fades more and more it becomes challenging. However, with perseverance the results can be spectacular.
Timing is important, not only in the correct exposure for your shots but also the orientation of the stars and the weather being right.
This shot took several attempts, some shots were obstructed by fog, some shots the aurora was so intense you couldn't see the stars! In the end this shot was taken on a bit of a whim, early in the morning before work. It's actually two photographs, merged together to get the detail in the Milky Way and the correct exposure for the modules.
Of course when the aurora is putting on a display you have to get out no matter how cold it is. The picture below shows the wintering team out in force even though it's -40°C with a 10 knot wind making it -50°C with wind chill.
Sometimes one photo just isn't enough. I've recently been doing some timelapse photography using a battery box that I made. This battery box consists of four high capacity 12V batteries, which is connected to a voltage regulation circuit that I put together with the help of one of our electronic engineers, Ross. This regulates the voltage down to 9V which I can connect directly to my Nikon D7100 and D750 cameras via a connector I installed in the battery grip.
Once set up, the camera can last for hours and once processed the end result is superb. I can't wait to get more footage.

Recently we've been trying photography though a telescope. The initial results haven't been great, and as the temperature gets colder operating the telescope is almost painful touching metal at -35°C with just thin gloves on. With more practice I'm sure we'll get some good results.

Well, bless those good regulator folks at NASD --- seems that once again the concept of fairplay escapes them. Did you know that five individuals won upset elections this year running as contested candidates against the NASD nomninated candidates? More to the point, did you know that a slate of dissident Florida candidates just swept the District 7 election? Funny, seems the NASD doesn't like the results and would just as soon bury the disclosure under a stealthy press release. You read the damn thing and tell me if you could figure out that the dissidents won.
hey Bill doesn’t Gunn Allen have somewhat of a checkered reputation?
I've learned a long time ago that many folks and firms with checkered reputations are victims of regulatory politics, and many folks and firms without such checkered reputations are the recipients of largesse often derived from the "power" of their firms and positions.
It's always the same story on Wall Street. One set of rules and standards for the big boys, and another set for the little guy. It's just a bit surprising to see such a vocal advocate as you fall for that obvious trap.
It's not just on Wall Street. This happens everywhere. Those with (more) money buy "status" and "justice". Those without are made scapegoats.
It is amazing that joe, Malcolm, mikebutler, etc... don't understand this. It is amazing that all of America didn't clearly understand this after the O.J. Simpson trial.
This is just more of what a lot of Americans, brokers, and revolutionaries have known for a long time. Unfortunately some folks still don't get it.

Last month, the department of music took several students on a field trip to Anaheim for the 2019 National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) convention. Asher Raboy, professor of music, vocalist, and PUC’s resident artist, organized the trip for two reasons. First, he wanted his students to gain insights into the kinds of employment opportunities that exist for music majors.
Secondly, Raboy wanted his students to be energized by meeting successful professionals who are creative, energetic, and entrepreneurial by nature.
Though the event lasted six days, to avoid missing too many classes PUC’s students attended only for the weekend. During this time, they were able to attend concerts, talk with music professionals, listen to presentations, meet performers, and explore a plethora of products related to the music industry. NAMM exhibitors and presenters filled the entire Anaheim convention center space, as well as presentation/exhibition space in three adjacent hotels.
In addition to hundreds of the world’s best musicians, NAMM attendees are also surrounded by the best companies in the industry, as well as the best journalists covering the industry. All of these are important connections to make when entering the field of music as a professional.
Raboy says the students each had unique interests at the event. Some simply found the plethora of creativity inspiring and engaging, soaking up as much of the event as they could, while others found the areas featuring their specific musical interest and/or instruments and stuck to them.
Davis found the event’s presentations to be most beneficial to her professional growth, such as the Friday morning session with Daniel Burrus, author and innovation expert.
Overall, NAMM is a beneficial event for both professors and students, though Raboy’s main purpose in organizing the trip was to inspire the students. He hopes they take away some enhanced confidence in the rich future ahead of them in the music industry.

The Peppermint Creeps started life as a 3-piece band, made up of guitarist Macy Malone and bass player Kari Ash, from Canada, and drummer Traci Michaelz, from the United States.
Later adding Marky DeSade on vocals, together they recorded three demo tracks that were released shortly in 1998 on cassette tape. Soon after Marky left and Macy Malone continued with vocals. They were joined by guitarist/vocalist Billi Foxxx with whom they performed live shows through 1999.
The Peppermint Creeps then recorded a studio E.P. with guitarist Macy Malone on vocals, that was produced by Phil Soussan (Ozzy Osbourne, Vince Neil & Billy Idol) and Randy Castillo (Motley Crue, Ozzy Osbourne, Lita Ford & The Motels), called "Cre.E.P.show".
In 2002, Peppermint Creeps expanded from a three-piece band, to a four piece, bringing in Arizona guitarist/vocalist Eddie Electra. The group regularly played Traci Michaelz two semi-monthly club nights "Club Paranormal" and "Glamageddon" at the Key Club in Hollywood, CA. They recorded their first full length album Animatron-X in 2002.
In 2003 bassist Kari Ash would leave the band and Andii Stittch would fill in. Shortly thereafter, the group filmed a video for their song "Lesbian". The video featured computer graphics of the band in a candy world, similar to that seen in "Charlie & the Chocolate Factory" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas". Stittch would not fill in for the band for long, leaving shortly after the group played a show in Hollywood with fellow Glam Metal band, the Murderdolls.
In 2004 the Creeps recruited guitarist Robbie Stylez from local Hollywood band "BlaQ!", and Eddie switched to bass. The band gained further attention due to their MySpace profile, becoming the website's #1 Glam band. In 2005, they released their second album, "We Are the Weirdos" (the title is a quote from Fairuza Balk's character Nancy in the movie "The Craft"). They also filmed videos for "Stupid", "Pop Culture" and "Life". Shortly after, Robbie left the band.
On September 15, 2006, the band unveiled the new line-up which returned the band to a four piece. Robbie Stylez returned to the band on guitar, and a new member Billy Blade was brought in on bass.
Along with a new website, the Peppermint Creeps revealed that they would be opening a new fan club in 2007 called "The Creepy Club". They also put out a preview for the 2009 album, in the form of a free download of a song called "Just Another Day". They filmed videos for "Just Another Day", "Let Your Voice Be Heard", "Broken Dollz", "Heartbleed" and The Vapors cover "Turning Japanese". The band went on to record a cover cd called "Cover Up". Soon after, guitarist Robbie once again left the band.
Traci Michaelz died in the early morning hours of Friday, June 13, 2008 after performing in Fort Worth Texas at the Rockstar Sports Bar the previous night.
The band released the new album In Hell with Traci Michaelz's last drum tracks on May 30, 2009.
In 2010 live compilation "Greatest Misses 'Live' 1998-2009" released.

One Insurer, Multiple Policies -- Do you have an automobile insurance policy? If so, is it with the same insurance company that provides your homeowners insurance? If the answer’s no, you may be paying too much -- for both policies. Almost every insurance company that sells home insurance wants its policyholders to also buy auto insurance from them. So, they offer “multi-policy discounts” to entice you. Usually, these discounts are at least 10% -- and some insurers apply the discounts to both the auto and the homeowners/renters policy.
Raise Your Deductible -- The deductible is the amount you pay before insurance kicks in if you have a claim. For example, if you have a $250 deductible and you file a claim for $1,000 in damage to your home, you pay the first $250 and your insurer pays the balance, $750. The higher your deductible is the less you pay for your policy. And, the best price point is the $1,000 deductible in most cases. If your home is on the larger side, you should look to a $2,500 deductible.
New Is Better -- Insurers really like newer homes. That’s because it’s less likely something will go wrong with the electrical, heating and plumbing systems. In addition, the structure itself is in better shape. Insurers offer discounts of as much as 8% to 15% or more if your residence is new.
Insure the House, Not the Land -- Nobody is going to steal your land. Fire and high winds won’t “destroy” it. And your home policy doesn’t cover your land anyway. So, don’t include the value of your land when deciding how much insurance you need. Have your agent run a replacement cost estimate to determine what it will cost to rebuild your home – and other structures – if they’re destroyed. The market value of your land doesn’t matter. If you include the value of the land, you’re paying too much. *Note that in the current economy, many homes are being purchased for less than the cost to build them. So, don't get too hung up on the land value issue for now (2012).
Don’t Insure What You Don’t Have – Your home policy includes an automatic protection limit for your personal property. This amount may be adjustable. If you don’t need all that protection you can lower it to save some money. But be careful. You may also need more. Your agent should help you with a quick personal property calculation.
Where There’s Smoke . . . -- There’s fire. Smoking (unattended cigarette butts, etc.) produces more than 23,000 residential fires in this country each year. That’s why most insurers have discounts for Fire alarms!
Monitor Your Automatic Inflation Adjustment – Virtually every home policy includes an automatic inflation adjustment every year. This means the company automatically increases your Dwelling Limit every year. The idea is to keep up with the rising costs of rebuilding your home and make sure your insurance will completely rebuild your home. That’s a good thing! But over time this automatic inflation adjustment can get out of whack with reality. I f you think your Dwelling Limit is too high, ask your agent to run a new replacement cost estimate. You may be able to lower your costs while still being fully protected.

There's more to copywriting than being able to turn your hand to writing a good story. You might have a sharp journalistic style of writing, or you're a killer content writer; it's not the same as copywriting.
Writing that sells is writing that feeds.
To sell your business, product, brand, or service, the words must come together in a way that makes people open their minds to what you’re offering and, eventually, their wallets to buy. This is where good copywriting comes to play.
Not to be confused with translation, transcreation is the method of taking a piece of copy and adapting the style, tone, and concept to a localised language.
I offer this service for copywriting translated from Spanish to English for businesses who sell to an English-speaking market.
The point is, if you sell to English-speaking countries, I can transform your text to persuasive copy for your target audience. That's transcreation.
I'm a British born English speaker, certified in TESOL (teaching English as a foreign language) and can write in localised language. Having lived in the USA briefly and worked for multinational companies, I also write in American English.
Whether you want the 'u' out of 'colour' (British English) or the 'z' in 'organized' (American English), I provide a copywriting and transcreation service to make sure your words sell your business and customers buy, buy, buy.
Whatever the subject matter, Tara has the knowledge and tools to create clever and convincing copy for your brand. A stickler for detail (they don't call her the bullet-point queen for nothing!) Tara will always go the extra mile for her clients.

PHILIPPE PASQUA (1965 - ) is a self-taught painter and sculptor with a penchant for capturing the fleeting nature of mortal existence. He was born in Grasse, France. The artist paints nudes and facial portraits, and he also creates sculptures using materials such as human skulls and dried butterflies. All of his works tend to highlight the ugliness behind beauty, the profanity in the midst of reverence, and the eventual helplessness of the powerful. This motivation accounts for his selection of subjects. Disabled individuals, Down's syndrome sufferers, and transsexual candidates prepped for surgery all find their way to Pasqua's canvasses.
Given his frantic brushstroke style and preference for black and blue shades, the artist’s portrait subjects can look as though they have been beaten, though Pasqua leaves the viewers to form their own interpretations. Likewise, Pasqua represents animals in a solitary setting, as though abandoned. Also an accomplished pencil drawer, Pasqua focuses primarily on faces: some disturbed, others depressed, and still others frightened. The artist’s interest in skulls is manifest in his sculpted works. Whether gilding them with gold or tattooing them, Pasqua makes human destiny clear to all who will look upon his skulls.
Although he did not intentionally plan to follow an artistic tradition, Pasqua is said to be firmly planted in Vanitas. This artistic movement, represented by Damien Hirst, stresses emptiness and the shallow, temporary nature of life's pleasures. Since 1990, Pasqua has exhibited his works all over the world. Beginning with the Maison des arts de Beausset in France, his art has travelled to Paris, Barcelona, Brussels, and Hamburg. In February 2012, Pasqua brought his skulls, comprising his Vanities series, to London's Opera Gallery. Lucian Freud once said, "The role of the artist is to disturb the human being." Critical acclaim suggests that Pasqua fills that role adequately. His representatives include Patrick Painter, Inc. of Santa Monica, CA. Pasqua lives in a suburb of Paris where he has created a studio/museum called ‘Storage’ and he exhibits his work as well as work by other artists.

We get it, being a dad is tough. Your 7AM appointment with the squat rack is replaced with early morning feeds, you can’t remember the last time you had an hour to yourself – let alone to meal prep or go for a drink – and, quite obviously, you’re absolutely knackered.
It’s enough to make anyone soft around the middle. Almost.
These six celebrity dads are living proof that a) there’s really no excuse for hanging onto your postnatal paunch and b) that the Dadbod theory is officially dead. (Although if you need help getting rid of yours, here’s how to banish the bulge for good).
It is my heart I love climbing it’s when I’m free Keeps me humble. Keeps me wild #dirtbagforlife #keepitferal so many great things to come with @soill @donthechan @dave_chancellor it’s just the beginning mahalo @ryan_keith_white @bearcam @captainriff @on_the_roam for catching an amazing day with my babies and mi hermanos Aloha j.
He’s Aquaman in Justice League, Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones, Declan Harp in Frontier, Conan The Barbarian in the movie of the same name – and also a father of two. The man-mountain Jason Momoa is living proof that full-body muscle is still very much an option in fatherhood. His exercise of choice? Climbing. Better limber up.
It would be sacrilege to miss DJ off the list, the self-confessed “hardest worker in the room” and father of three. The Rock famously worked out immediately after his daughter’s birth, in case you weren’t already completely sold on his dedication to crafting arguably the world’s most coveted male physique.
Solid work tonight because 4th place doesn’t get a medal.
He’s the most notorious in the business for a reason – the king of combat sports has unparalleled precision and power in the ring thanks to his enviable rig. His son is also called Conor McGregor Jr., which is the most Conor McGregor thing to happen since the UFC star teased the launch of his own Irish whiskey, called Notorious. You'll do nuttin'.
If you’re not already one of Ronaldo’s 129 million Instagram followers (making him the third most followed person on the social media site, second only to Instagram’s own account and American singer Selena Gomez), you most definitely should be. Father-of-four CR7 is a fitness force to be reckoned with – but Cristiano Ronaldo's workout regime has surprisingly little to do with football.
If Statham can do it at 50, you can. The dad-of-one regularly takes to Instagram to show off his jacked physique and honestly, if we were him, we’d do the exact same. Does the man ever take a day off? Judging by his muscle-up skills, it seems somewhat unlikely. Bonus cool points for his arty black-and-white pics, too.
Dedicated dad-of-three Chris Hemsworth is so devoted to family life, he even uses his children as weights for added resistance. Guess that’s just what it takes to earn a place as one of Hollywood’s fittest. Nevertheless, Hemsworth doesn’t live in the gym, as we already know – you’re more likely to find him surfing, skiing or practicing pool-side Kung-Fu.
IS THIS 6-YEAR-OLD DANGEROUSLY RIPPED?

Health benefits offered by natural food colorants and ban on use of artificial colorants for food items & beverages are expected to boost the market growth.
The global food colors market was valued at $1,751 million in 2016, and is projected to reach at $3,210 million by 2023, registering a CAGR of 9.8% from 2017 to 2023. Ingredients used to offer the required appearance to any food item or beverage are termed as food colors. These are added to carbonated drinks, ready-to-eat (RTE) products, frozen food, alcoholic beverages, processed foods, juices, and sauces. Food colors are used in commercial food items and domestic cooking and are available in various forms such as liquid, liquid gel, gel paste, and powder. The market for food colors comprises natural and artificial colors.
The Global Food Color Market is driven by rising in the food & beverages industry in emerging economies such as, India, Brazil, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Africa. Moreover, the health benefits offered by few natural colorants boost the market growth. In addition, the ever-growing technological advancements and easy availability of raw materials from plants and animals support the growth. However, the market growth for food color is restricted by the ban on the usage of artificial colorants. R&D activities pertaining to new raw material sources offer food colorant manufacturers numerous growth opportunity.
In 2016, the natural colors segment accounted for the highest share, and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period, owing to their ease of availability from flora and fauna.
North America and Europe collectively contributed about 60% share of the global market in 2016. This is mainly because of the growing meat industry in the North American region. The region is believed to produce meat and poultry valuing approximately $119 billion in 2012-2013. Similarly, the increased production to meet up the growing demand for meat products in the European region drives the food color market in the region. The demand for food colors in both the regions is also due to the presence of major beverage companies such as PepsiCo, A.G.Barr p.l.c., Cadbury Schweppes, and Coco-Cola.
The key players operating in the global food colors market are Archer Daniels Midland Company, Kalsec, Inc., Chr. Hansen A/S, Fiorio Colori SPA, FMC Corporation, Dohler Group, Sensient Technologies Corporation, D.D. Williamson & Co. Inc. (DDW), Koninklijke DSM N.V., and Naturex S.A.

For general information on software patents, see software patent.
The software patent debate is the argument about the extent to which, as a matter of public policy, it should be possible to patent software and computer-implemented inventions. Policy debate on software patents has been active for years. The opponents to software patents have gained more visibility with fewer resources through the years than their pro-patent opponents. Arguments and critiques have been focused mostly on the economic consequences of software patents.
One aspect of the debate has focused on the proposed European Union directive on the patentability of computer-implemented inventions, also known as the "CII Directive" or the "Software Patent Directive," which was ultimately rejected by the EU Parliament in July 2005.
There are several arguments commonly given in defense of software patents or defense of the patentability of computer-implemented inventions.
Through public disclosure, patents encourage the open sharing of information and additional transparency about legal exposure.
Through public disclosure, patents encourage the transfer of mechanical technology, which may apply more broadly.
Software patents resulting from the production of patentable ideas can increase the valuation of small companies.
Software patents increase the return on investment made, which includes government funded research.
The ability to patent new software developed as a result of research encourages investment in software-related research by increasing the potential return of investment of said research.
Patents protect functionality. Copyright on the other hand only protects expression. Substantial modification to an original work, even if it performs the same function, would not be prevented by copyright. To prove copyright infringement also requires the additional hurdle of proving copying, which is not necessary for patent infringement.
Copyright law protects unique expressions, while patent law protects inventions, which in the case of software, are algorithms; copyright cannot protect a novel means of accomplishing a function, merely the syntax of one such means.
This means that patents incentivize projects that are unique and innovative in functionality rather than simply form. Copyrights, in turn, only incentivize uniqueness in form.
Software patents can afford smaller companies market protection by preventing larger companies from stealing work done by a smaller organization, leveraging their greater resources to go to market before the smaller company can.
Hardware and software are sometimes interchangeable. If people can patent hardware, then ideas describing software implemented by that hardware should also be patentable.
A program is the transcription of an algorithm in a programming language. Since every (Turing-complete) programming language implements Church's lambda calculus by virtue of the Church-Turing thesis, a program is thus the transcription of a mathematical function. Math is not patentable. Therefore, neither is software.
A patent thicket is a dense web of patents that companies must decipher to develop new technology. There are various types of patent thickets such as when a single innovation is protected by multiple patent holders or when a product is covered by numerous patents. The consequences of patent thickets are increased difficulty of innovation, complex cross-licensing relations between companies, and discouragement of newcomers from entering the software industry.
Some scientific studies and expert reviews have concluded that patent systems paradoxically hinder technological progress and allows monopolies and powerful companies to exclude others from industrial science in a manner that is irreconcilable with anti-trust laws.
Gary Becker, Nobel Prize–winning economist, argues, "Their exclusion from the patent system would discourage some software innovations, but the saving from litigation costs over disputed patent rights would more than compensate the economy for that cost."
The Electronic Frontier Foundation published the Defend Innovation whitepaper after doing two and a half years of research on software patents. They concluded that many overbroad software patents are being awarded, which is actually stifling innovation.
Interoperability is thought to promote innovation, and patent systems have the potential to block the development of such technologies.
Should a software developer hire a patent attorney to perform a clearance search and provide a clearance opinion, there is no guarantee that the search could be complete. Different patents and published patent applications may use different words to describe the same concepts and thus patents that cover different aspects of the invention may not show up in a search. The cost of a clearance search may not prove cost effective to businesses with smaller budgets or individual inventors.
For the U.S. the economic benefit is dubious. A study in 2008 found that American public companies’ total profits from patents (excluding pharmaceuticals) in 1999 were about $4 billion, but that the associated litigation costs were $14 billion.
Software developers and hardware manufacturers may be forced to pay license fees for standards that are covered by patents (the so-called essential patents). Some examples are H.264, MP3 and GIF (that uses the patented LZW compression algorithm) and JPEG for graphics.
It is argued that traditional copyright has provided sufficient protection to facilitate massive investment in software development.
Copyright is the right of an author(s) to prevent others from copying their creative work without a license. Thus the author of a particular piece of software can sue someone that copies that software without a license. Copyright protection is given automatically and immediately without the need to register the copyright with a government, although registration does strengthen protection. Copyrighted material can also be kept secret.
Software programs are different from other electromechanical devices because they are designed solely in terms of their function. The inventor of a typical electromechanical device must design new physical features to qualify for a patent. On the other hand, a software developer need only design new functions to create a working embodiment of the program.
Software is a component of a machine. The computer’s hardware is generic; it performs functions that are common to all of the software that is capable of being executed on the computer. Each software program that is capable of executing on the computer is a component of the computer.
Computers "design" and build the structure of executable software. Thus, software developers do not design the executable software's physical structure because they merely provide the functional terms.
Anecdotal evidence suggests that some software patents cover either trivial inventions or inventions that would have been obvious to persons of ordinary skill in the art at the time the invention was made.
Patent examiners rarely have a comprehensive knowledge of the specific technologies disclosed in the patent applications they examine. This is in large part due to the enormous number of micro-niches in the software field and the relatively limited number of examiners. So, patents are sometimes allowed on inventions that appear to be trivial extensions of existing technologies.
The free and open source software community, and many companies that use and contribute to open source oppose software patents because they can impede or prohibit the distribution of free software. They contend that patents threaten to undermine FLOSS, regardless of innovations produced by FLOSS collaborations.
Some patent disclosures in the software field are not readable to some programmers; as a result, patents are rarely used as a source of technical information by software developers.
According to the United States Patent and Trademark Office’s official statistics for 2015, the average pendency for patent applications categorized under “Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security” was approximately two and a half years, exceeding the pendencies of all other patent categories.
The average total pendency of European technology patents in 2015 was approximately two and a half years. Technology patents in China, Korea, Japan, and Europe had first action pendencies of approximately one year compared to those in the United States, with first action pendencies of under two years. Europe and the United States have the longest total pendencies of around 26 months, while China, Korea, and Japan have shorter total pendencies from 15 to 21 months.
Software companies are becoming patent hoarders, spending billions of dollars on accumulating patents and even more on litigations and settlements – resources could be better put to use in creating new and innovative software advances. Too many patents are given out, making it difficult for developers to create new software due to possibility of accidental infringement. Engineers say it impedes their creativity.
In 2016 IBM earned 8,088 U.S. patents; thus earning the most grants from the U.S. Patent Office for the 24th year in a row. They bested their closest tech rival by more than 2,500 patents. Behemoths like IBM, Google, and Oracle gather as many patents in the fields considered 'hot' such as Artificial Intelligence to limit the innovation potential of smaller firms. Patent claims were part of the Oracle America, Inc. v. Google, Inc. case, where Oracle claimed that Google's implementation of Java within Android violated Oracle's copyright and patents. Duke Computer Science Professor Owen Astrachan was involved in the case.
Not only large companies are patent hoarders. NPEs (Non-Practising Entities) are businesses that assert patents through litigation to achieve revenues from alleged infringers without practising or commercialising the technology covered by the patents they hold. NPEs are very effective in their litigations. Damages awards for NPEs almost are 3 times greater than practicing entities over the last 5 years.
Patent assertion entities (patent trolls) disproportionately affect startups, which are important for job creation and innovation. Companies with less than $100M annual revenue represent two-thirds of unique defendants in troll suits. A large percentage of startups reported that being sued by trolls resulted in significant operational impact.
The Bilski case involved a patent application on methods for hedging against commodity price fluctuations, which the PTO had rejected. The Federal Circuit, in In re Bilski, upheld the PTO's rejection on the grounds that the claims failed the machine-or-transformation test, which the court held should be used as the sole test of patent eligibility. The court did not hold that all business methods are patent ineligible, though a minority of the judges would have ruled that business methods are not properly the subject of patents.
The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of ineligibility, in Bilski v. Kappos, but on more general, and less articulated in detail, grounds of undue abstractness. It rejected the Federal Circuit's elevation of the machine-or-transformation test as the sole test of patent eligibility, saying that rather it was simply a "useful clue." The 5-4 majority refused to hold that all business methods were incapable of being patented, but four justices would have established such a rule. A concurring opinion pointed out that the Court was unanimous, however, as to many issues in the Bilski case, including a rejection of the Federal Circuit's late 1990s State Street Bank decision, which allowed patents on any advance, technical or nontechnical (and in that case a numerical financial calculation of stock price changes) that produces a "useful, concrete and tangible result."
The Supreme Court's Bilski decision was criticized because of its lack of detailed guidance on how to determine whether a claim was directed to an abstract idea. Nonetheless, it provided some clarification and affirmed the Federal Circuit's taking a new direction in its software-related patent cases.
In Mayo v. Prometheus, the Supreme Court invalidated a patent on a diagnostic method, because it non-inventively implemented a natural principle; the Court drew on cases involving computer software and other abstract ideas. In this case, the Court was much more detailed in describing how to recognize a patent-ineligible claim to an abstract idea. The Mayo methodology has come to dominate patent-eligibility law. It revived the approach of the Flook and Neilson cases, which is to treat the underlying principle, idea, or algorithm on which the claimed patent is based as if it were part of the prior art and to make patent eligibility turn on whether the implementation of it is inventive. This led to the "two-step" Alice test described next.
At the time the Mayo case was decided, there was some uncertainty over whether it applied only to natural principles (laws of nature) or more generally to patent eligibility of all abstract ideas and general principles, including those involved in software patents. The Alice decision confirmed that the test was general. The Alice case involved patents on electronic methods and computer programs for financial-trading systems on which trades between two parties who are to exchange payment are settled by a third party in ways that reduce the risk that one party performs while the other does not. The patents cover what amounts to a computerized escrow arrangement.
The Court held that Mayo explained how to address the problem of determining whether a patent claimed an unpatentable abstract idea or instead a potentially patentable practical implementation of an idea. This requires using a "two-step" analysis.
In the first step, the court must determine whether the patent claim under examination contains an abstract idea, such as an algorithm, method of computation, or other general principle. If not, the claim is potentially patentable, subject to the other requirements of the patent code. If the answer is affirmative, the court must proceed to the next step.
In the second step of the analysis, the court must determine whether the patent adds to the idea "something extra" that embodies an "inventive concept." If there is no addition of an inventive element to the underlying abstract idea, the court finds the patent invalid under section 101. This means that the implementation of the idea must not be conventional or obvious to qualify for a patent. Ordinary and customary use of a general-purpose digital computer is insufficient; the Court said—"merely requiring generic computer implementation fails to transform [an] abstract idea into a patent-eligible invention."
A mere instruction to implement an abstract idea on a computer "cannot impart patent eligibility."
"[T]he mere recitation of a generic computer cannot transform a patent-ineligible abstract idea into a patent-eligible invention."
"Stating an abstract idea 'while adding the words "apply it"' is not enough for patent eligibility."
"Nor is limiting the use of an abstract idea to a particular technological environment."
The Alice decision met a mixed reception, but profoundly affected U.S. patent law. In its wake, as explained in the Wikipedia article on the case, courts invalidated vast numbers of so-called software and business-method patents (the overwhelming majority of those the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit considered) and the number of such patents issued has drastically fallen. The Alice decision has been widely criticized for its failure to specify in detail the boundaries of patent eligibility, but it has also been defended because its unanimity tends to stabilize decisional law in the field.

Of course, the notice problems that we find central to the poor performance of the patent system are not the only ones looking for a remedy.
