library built into a staircase

The stairs going up to the attic room of a Victorian row house in London have been fitted with books that line each riser and wrap around the edges. As someone who lives in small places with lots of books (and no matter what I do, no matter how ruthless I am, I always seem to have lots more books that I have room for) this kind of thing is sheer aspirational porn for me. The flat occupies part of the shared top floor of an existing Victorian mans

riaa enforcers stop mentioning "litigation support" in list of services

MediaSentry, a company that provides "investigative services" to the RIAA, has redesigned its site to remove references to its services in support of litigation. The move comes after the Massachusetts State Police told MediaSentry that it was illegal to investigate of Boston University students without a license. The updated version of the MediaSentry site has no reference to litigation or prosecution, which seems odd for a company making what ap

lessig 08: video explains reform congress movement, asks whether lessig should run

More news on the Draft Lessig front: a couple days ago, I posted here about the movement to draft Larry Lessig to run for Congress to fill Tom Lantos's recently vacated seat.

Airlines will also be required to provide information on travellers' families, and to allow US Air Marshals to fly on any flight that will pass over or land on US soil.

network cable macrame

Got some extra network cable lying around? (who doesn't?) Why not try your hand at some Cat-5 macrame and make a handsome high-tech plant-hammock out of it? Since I was cleaning anyway, I took the time to straighten up a few other areas, including some potted plants and cabling. When finished, I had a left-over mint plant, and forty-some feet of damaged Ethernet cable. Since I had plenty of other things to do, and didn't particularly want to do t

indonesian trains spray "roof riders" with identifying paint

The Indonesian state railway is installing paint-sprayers to douse "roof riders" who ride atop the trains into Jakarta -- Indonesia lacks a cheap and reliable way to get into and out of the city, and many commute illegally on the roof (the Jakarta Post says more than 50 roof riders have been killed in the past two years). After several failed attempts to discourage roof riders over years, the state owned railway company PT Kereta Api will from ne
