How to Create an FAQ Page with WordPress and Custom Post Types

In the web world, a FAQ page is created specifically for the viewers/customers, and contains general questions and their respective answers about a particular product or service. This tutorial details the process of creating a dedicated FAQ section in the WordPress backend with custom post types, as well as how to spice up the actual page a bit by using jQuery and CSS. To accomplish our goal, we require a dedicated custom FAQ WordPress post type. That way, we can use the title and the content of these posts to display the FAQs in an innovative and user-friendly way — via Nettuts+

Brough Superior SS 100

Brough Superior

Did you know that the world record for a motorcycle sold at auction is $551,000? It was set in 2008 by a 1915 Cyclone board track racer. But that record might be broken on 15 December, when George Brough’s prototype Brough Superior SS 100 goes under the hammer in New York. This machine is the evocatively-named Alpine Grand Sport variant, and it’s tipped to go for between $600,000 and $700,000 — via Bike EXIF

Their design is disturbingly Mordor-esque, but the 17-year lifespan can’t be argued with.

Alexis Petridis on random music finds

Here’s a sentence you don’t read every day: last Sunday afternoon, our kitchen was brought to a standstill by the sound of a broken-down fairground ride with its calliope in a state of terrible disrepair wheezing out a wildly offkey version of Tom Jones’s It’s Not Unusual. The reactions among the Petridis family ranged from hilarity (me) to wild, howling terror (Agatha, aged one), both of which somehow seemed right: it was both uproariously funny and deeply unsettling. It was played on Jarvis Cocker’s fantastic BBC 6 Music show, but he had discovered it on the Tape Findings section of a website called sweetthunder.org. Here, an American bloke posts MP3 files of the sounds recorded on random cassettes he finds in thrift stores and garage sales — via redwolf.newsvine.com
