bloggerbraeteln
aus aktuellem grund mal wieder deutsch; diesen sonntag findet in konolfingen wieder mal ein bloggertreffen statt, diesmal brätelnderweise. christian hats angerissen und einige wollen kommen (siehe kommentare). wenn schönes wetter ist, werd ich mit dem velo nach konolfingen düsen und hab schon mal beim herr leu angefragt, ob er auch mitkommen will, der ziert sich aber noch :-) der velobegeisterte aargauer ist ja bekannt für langere touren, und ein mail von mir wartet in seiner inbox, mal schauen, evtl. gibt das ne art sternfahrt :-)
famous detective
A man suspected his wife was seeing another man, so he hired the famous Chinese detective, Chen Lee, to watch and report any activities while he was gone. A few days later, he received this report: Most honorable Sir: You leave house. I watch house. He come to house. I watch. He and She leave house. I follow. He and She go in hotel. I climb tree. I look in window.
gravatar is down [update]
you might have noticed that my gravatars are not displayed anymore. this is because gravatar.com is down at the moment[1]. there is a workaround, but i’ll just wait for some days and see if the issue resolves itself, before i start to mess with some code. [1] not really down, but their DNS is b0rked somehow. see technorati for more info… update: they’re back on track. Technorati Tags: gravatar

picture of the week 27 [update]
i spent the past weekend with renzo and eveline which competed in the gigathlon, a race across switzerland involving swimming, inline skating, road- and mountain-biking and running from locarno to basel via luzern. all the athletes and their supporters were housed in two camps, the picture below shows a panorama of the tents in the camp in airolo. oh, and don’t blame me for the barrel distortion, i was standing on a heap of scrap wood, while i took that panorama and feared that i’m gonna fall down, so i could not align the pictures any nicer…

apple doesn't want to sell me stuff
dear apple. i just spent an hour and a half to layout a book (for a gift) in iphoto. now, that i want to buy it, you inform me, that my credit-card cannot be accepted for this transaction. i double-checked with my credit-card-company, and yes, my card is fully valid and within its limit, so there’s nothing wrong with that. and i’d also love to buy sunny days, but that also doesn’t work.
take my palm away
take my palm away yesterday evening nina and me were wondering if they take the palms away during the night at the front. and yes, they do.
picture of the week 26
i’ve been experimenting with panoramas quite a bit lately [1]. and with huginosx it’s really easy to align ramarkably good panoramas even with handheld pictures, like i’ve done it in the one below. this wednesday the ja! [2] made a bike demonstration in bern. they wanted to protest against the newest plans to slash the free bike-parking around the main station here in bern. because of the thunderstorm that just started minutes after the demonstration was about to begin there were not too many people. i tried to document that with that panorama, which makes the waisenhausplatz look quite empty with that little bunch of protesters on it…
