...great breakfast and you can look through the papers. Afterward, I'd head across to Peter's Yard, tel: (44-131) 228 5876, a Swedish bakery where they bake everything on-site and the outdoor terrace is the perfect place to sit and relax. Then I'd take the car to Cramond, a picturesque former fishing village a 20-minute drive north of Edinburgh, for a long walk along the beach and seafront. There's also a direct bus. The afternoon would find me back in the city at Ondine, tel: (44-131) 226 1888, eating oysters at their horseshoe...
...confession, Muna described how she met Rahum in Jerusalem on that day in January 2001, took a taxi with him to the northern suburbs and from there drove him in her car to the Palestinian city of Ramallah. The two cities almost touch. Rahum probably didn't know he had left Jerusalem. Muna told police she intended to hold Rahum as a hostage to prod the Israelis to release Palestinian prisoners. But in Ramallah, one of her co-conspirators, Hassan al-Qadi (a "senior armed terror operative," according to Israeli intelligence), allegedly shot the boy dead at point-blank range...
...While Murray fully expects to license the designs of the T.25 and T.27 to manufacturers, they're essentially proof-of-concept cars. His main goal is to license the revolutionary manufacturing process he's invented to build the cars, which he says expends far less energy than more traditional auto-making factories. He claims that his iStream system, as he's dubbed it, requires a fifth of the capital investment that a standard, high-volume car plant needs, and only 20% of the space. "But you can't sell an idea, especially one this disruptive and radical. You must have...
...challenge, because car-manufacturing hasn't changed much in 100 years. Body parts are still stamped out of sheets of steel and then shaped, welded together and painted - a process that is expensive and sucks up an awful lot of energy. Murray says his iStream system involves using composite plastic panels made by injection molding which are screwed or bolted onto a frame made of tubular steel. In the U.S., he says, the frames and molded panels could be made at one central plant, while the assembly could be done at smaller plants near distributors, which means fewer cars being...
What I did in 2009, according to Facebook: In January, I received a Snuggie. In February I became very angry at a Lincoln car commercial. In March, I caught the flu and complained about it for weeks. In April, I hung new curtains. In May, I met Lou Reed (O.K., that one was interesting). I ate a bagel in June, cooked dinner in July, and in August I spent an entire day in pajamas. I only had two status updates during the month of September but one of them was about socks. I napped in October, complained about the noisy...
