I have written a very large program. About a year's work. It is passing all tests, no memory leaks, thread errors, etc. It's ready to be released and all I need is documentation and a license.

I want a license that is permissive where people are free to contribute, redistribute, but where I have sole rights to patent the original implementation or core of the program (I don't care about your opinion on patents).

What license is the best for me?

Most people barely know the difference between patents, trademarks, trade secrets and copyright. Don't listen to anyone here and talk to a lawyer. If you have a patentable idea I'm pretty sure any lawyer would advise you to patent them before you post that idea all over the internet.

Oh and I forgot: fuck you and your software patents.

Most pre-made licenses deal with copyright, not patents. Though it's irrelevant anyways since if you are truly the creator of the patentable material, then no one else would be able to patent it anyways (unless independently created, etc.).
