Public Transport
The Mayor of London has announced nearly £1 billion of spending intended to overhaul London's cycle routes. The plan includes the creation of a 15-mile (24-km) "Crossrail for the bike," substantially segregated from road traffic, connecting the suburbs of East and West London. Read More
Regional German transport operator Rhein-Neckar-Verkehr GmbH (RNV) is set to carry out a pilot project to test the viability of wireless inductive charging technology of electric buses. The trial will see two electric buses fitted with Canadian transportation manufacturer Bombardier's PRIMOVE inductive charging technology that will enable them to be recharged wirelessly as they let passengers on and off at bus stops along the inner city route 63 in Mannheim, Germany.

Taking to the stage at this year's Economist Innovation Awards, Elon Musk of SpaceX let slip a few more choice details about his "Hyperloop" high-speed transportation system that would see commuters travel between Los Angeles and San Francisco in a mere 30 minutes, describing the concept for the first time as a cross between Concorde and railgun.

New Moscow: Plans afoot to double the size of Russia's capital
Plans have been laid to fundamentally rethink Moscow. The Kremlin and the rest of the historic center of Russia's capital city are groaning under the weight of automobile traffic thanks to the boom in car ownership that followed the collapse of communism. Traffic in the city, memorably described by Keith Gessen for The New Yorker in 2010 as feeling "like an existential threat," frequently coagulates into jams which were reported by Pravda last year to be the longest in duration in the world: on average 2.5 hours long. The plan is bold: to create a new Federal District that would move the seat of government out of the old center and into a brand new district, doubling the size of the city. Following a six-month international design competition, a particular vision has been chosen. Read More
TAXI station hails a cab for you
For people who live in towns and cities, catching a taxi cab is a regular pastime. Hailing one on the street can be dangerous, and persuading one to stop seems to be more about luck than anything else. Taxi stands or taxi ranks provide an alternative, but they normally amount to nothing more than a structure to keep out the worst of the weather. The TAXI station from Designnobis seeks to up the ante, providing a visual presence for taxi cabs and their potential passengers. Read More
Over the next six months, the United States Department of Homeland Security's Science and Technology Directorate is releasing a harmless bacterium into the underground train system as part of its "Detect to Protect" program. It's purpose isn't to frighten commuters, but to test sensors designed to detect biological weapon attacks. Read More
Blind people in São Carlos, a city in the state of São Paulo in Brazil, have had their lives made easier when they are out and about their city. The municipality has hooked up with Grupo Criar, a company specialized in traffic systems, to design the Busalert app to make it easier and more efficient to use the city's bus network. Read More
Gizmag rides London's new Thames Cable Car
Gizmag recently took the opportunity to ride the newest addition to London's public transport system, a kilometer-long (0.62-mile), 93-meter tall (305 ft) cable car system offering passengers commanding views of East London and beyond. Read More
Public transport systems offer many advantages over the personal alternatives when it comes to getting large numbers of people from A to B in style and safety - less congestion, less pollution and lower costs for starters. But while we certainly see plenty of impetus on the personal transport front here at Gizmag, fresh concepts for the future of mass transport don't seem to enjoy the same level of exposure, despite the fact that many cities around the world are still saddled with public transport infrastructure that's been in place for over a century. There are some radical plans in the works, however, and the 21st Century will undoubtedly bring with it a raft of people moving projects that redefine our notion of public transport. So just what will be pulling into the station in 50 years time? Read on for our pick of the most tantalizing concepts out there. Read More
Dual-mode transport - the trend accelerates
Auto China is probably the most influential automobile show in the world at present. China now produces and consumes more cars than any other nation, so its needs will heavily influence personal transport globally in coming decades. Some early trends are emerging as to what we'll see, and as congestion in China increases and parking centrally becomes prohibitively expensive, a car will increasingly only get you part of the way to your destination. Geely and BMW both showed cars with inclusive last-mile transport at Auto China, but the number of last mile Transportation Appliance options under development by auto manufacturers is growing rapidly.

Linux for Suits - Breaking the Matrix
Doc Searls is Senior Editor of Linux Journal
Should I infer that businesses that support an open economy have no presumption on keeping customers data, define themself only on service and not on platform? Is the ideal open economy then a set of businesses at least twice the size of business platforms, where customers can iradicate their data within one business and plug it into another business with an identical platform? This idea seems to parallel the concept of all customers being their own ASPs. You get the same result with people who run applications on their own home Linux boxes. Their data is entirely their own, and the only services they consume are identical ISP services: bandwith and DNS. Is the asymtote a return to cottage industry?
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Risotto with Leeks, Shiitake Mushrooms, and Truffles Reviews
Bon Appétit | September 2007
Le Pigeon in Portland, OR
reviews & comments (132)
Followed this with slight modifications. Did not use truffle/truffle oil, thyme, or parsley, and added Romano cheese instead of parmesan. This recipe is a winner any which way you tweak it.
This recipe is wonderful! I made it for my new husband as a "happy 1 month of marriage". I am now afraid I raised the bar too high. It would have been more efficient if I had started the mushrooms, the made the risotto and then cooked the leeks. However, the extra cooking time on the risotto made it so creamy that I reduced the amount of butter and cheese at the end. Proper salting and a little drizzle of truffle oil made these flavors pop.
This recipe is amazing. I made this as a "happy 1 month of marriage" dinner, and I am now worried I have raised the bar too high. I started the risotto first (I warmed the wine slightly as not to shock the rice) and then started with the mushrooms. This was not efficient as the risotto cooked faster than the mushrooms. However, continuing to stir and add broth made a very creamy risotto and I reduced the amount of butter and cheese at the end and it was creamy, rich and wonderful. I salted after adding the cheese, not sure show much salt the cheese would bring, and added a little drizzle of truffle oil (as I did not have truffles) and it dramatically brought out the flavors.
With an Italian wife, I make risotto quite often, but this was really exceptional. I didn't use the leeks or the truffles or the truffle oil or the mushrooms or the onion or the risotto but it still came out awesome! How can you people totally change the recipe and then review it like you made it as written?
With an Italian husband, I make risotto quite often, but this was really exceptional. I did not use the truffles or truffle oil, and I skipped the onions with the rice (by accident), and I used half crimini and half shitake, but otherwise followed the recipe. Wow. The leeks were fabulous and everything just went so well together. Like other reviewers, I had to cut the time on roasting the mushrooms - only 30 min - or they would have been charcoal. We will definitely make this again.
I used regular button mushrooms, garlic infused olive oil, Rosemary instead of Thyme, chicken broth and no Truffle oil and it was still delicious. I will make It again and again. Can't wait to make it with the ingredients as listed. Worth every calorie.
This was the best risotto I have ever made. I served it at a dinner party last night (doubled the recipe without a problem). When one guest looked saddly into his bowl, I asked what was wrong. He said he was mourning all of the horrible risottos he had eaten before he knew what a proper risotto should taste like. Thumbs up from everyone!
I am speechless. Never been a fan of risotto and was never able to successfully make it myself. I have been determined ever since to make and to have an amazing risotto. This recipe truly gets it right. I followed it to the letter, which I usually have a hard time doing, rebel cook that I am. I am fortunate to have an awesome vendor at my farmer's market that sells the best vegetable broth on earth. I'm sure that was a major contributr to this dish; success. Awesome ingredients are definitely the foundation. I too thought my mushrroms may have been over done. Once added to the risooto though they were just fine. I am in love.

A U.N. report concluding that both Israel and Hamas committed war crimes in Gaza would block the Mideast peace process if it's enacted, Israel said Wednesday, while the Palestinian Authority called it essential to peace in the region.
In this June 3, 2009, file photo, U.N. investigator Richard Goldstone visits the destroyed house where members of the Samouni family were killed in an artillery strike during Israel's offensive in January in Gaza City. Associated Press
The report recommends the Security Council give Israel and Hamas six months to conduct internal probes into the war-crimes charges or have their cases sent to the International Criminal Court in The Hague. The U.N.'s Human Rights Council is deciding this week whether to forward it to the Security Council.
The U.S. can veto the report at the Security Council, and has rejected what it calls the report's "unbalanced" mandate against Israel. But a veto could have political implications among Arab nations.
Gabriela Shalev, Israel's ambassador to the U.N., said negotiations with Palestinians would remain on hold as long as the international community considered the report. Earlier, Riad al-Malki, the Palestinian Authority's foreign minister, said peace couldn't be achieved without implementing the report.
The U.N. investigation of last winter's conflict, headed by the South African jurist Richard Goldstone, found fault with both sides. It concluded that "Israeli operations were carefully planned in all their phases as a disproportionate attack designed to punish, humiliate and terrorize" civilians in Gaza, more than 1,400 of whom were killed.
The commission accused authorities in Gaza of firing 8,000 rockets since 2001 indiscriminately at Israeli civilians. Israel says it launched its effort to stop the rocket fire that killed three Israeli civilians. But the report said it found no evidence that Hamas militants -- who have governed Gaza since 2007 -- used civilian shields, as Israel has said.
