Yeah, that sounds pretty darn good. I'm really hoping it means a brighter future for transportation, gas is crazy over here right now(Florida, it averages at around $4.00 a gallon, sometimes a bit more or less depending on the gas station).

Tesla opens all its electric car patents for anyone to use in an effort to spur innovation and kill off gasoline powered cars.
Generally good news for everyone when a corporation just comes out and says "Guys, the patent system is awful, lets not use it"
I'm not sure what I can say to this. Just makes me sigh. It's certainly a busy and difficult time for internet based rights issues.You must be registered to see the links

It's about Israel being Israel again. They're about as legitimate a country as Atlantis these days. Nothing unusual, really

Fish eating spiders, to be exact
From the looks of it, the government is trying to limit the NSA as you said, and also trying to fight Obama's attempts to shut down Guantanamo Bay and take further action in Iraq. And according to this, the government's actually sort of winning.
