This is Local Motors ' Rally Fighter , the first car openly developed and built using crowd-sourcing. It will change the auto industry forever. More importantly for me, with its P-51 fighter plane-influenced design, it might be the coolest-looking car ever. The Rally Fighter is the first-ever crowd-sourced "creative commons"-like car, is the culmination of 35,000 designs by 2,900 community...

Way back in May of 2008 I was fortunate enough to see this fantastic animated film Sita Sings the Blues and was always a little bummed that it never got a wider release so my friends could partake in its goodness. Well, it appears that creator Nina Paley has released the film with a full-on Creative commons Attribution-Share Alike License ; which means you can download the whole thing with the full...

Figleaf's Real Adult Sex (Free subscription) | 2 hours ago
Photo by Flickr user justin. Used under a Creative Commons license. I’m actually not that given to pining for youth. But I gotta say I think I might appreciate the BDSM fascination with the intricately-layered and arranged wrappings and knots of Japanese shibari bondage if I wasn’t old enough to remember, all too well, the similarly intricately-layered and arranged wrappings and knots...

An anonymous reader writes "Print-on-demand publisher Lulu recently announced that they're offering 'eBooks'. Since they've always offered downloadable books as PDFs, that takes some decoding to figure out what part is new: it turns out that it means now they're handling more formats, they've significantly increased the share they take out of the purchase price ... and for an additional fee, they...

At $13, this Bordeaux from the fabled vintage was a must buy. It has a ruby hue with chocolate and big berry aromas with deep spice and pine. Palate--Wow--what a disappointment; watery, steely bread with little or no fruit and quick finish which in this case is a blessing. This wine began superbly with a wonderful bouquet but gave up the ghost in the aromas. Pass it up. --A Review from The Wine Cask...

A Patric Lesec wine: showing age with some bricking and mature, stewed and baked cherry fruit that is pleasant but with some alcohol volatility. Palate--Cherries with pepper on a a slightly hot base but interesting none-the-less with an olive finish and a little more pepper. This was a closeout wine at 25% off making it about $8. I grabbed it because Beaumes De Venise was one of the very first wines...

Another Trader Joe's bargain which did not pay off for the travel and expense as it was gone on a return visit. Purple cranberry jelly hue with bright cherry, pipe tobacco aromas and nice fruit. Palate--Sweet, integrated fruit with some intensity along with baked bread, candy berry flavors and a finish that lasts. Good structure with a spice rear, will drink well for several years. A Ripasso at this...

According to two new studies, planting forests in areas that currently don't have trees — a process called afforestation — can reduce the local availability of water. One key measure of water flow is 'base flow', the...

Earlier this year I worked on Open Government Data for the Ministry for the Interior , together with James Burke . As part of that project we created a basic flow chart to help civil servants decide if and how it is ok to open up data sets they have available. Thanks to the persistence of James Burke and the great artistic skills of the BUROPONY guys in Rotterdam that flow chart looks now a whole...
