mm, the sun and warmth just keeps on ticking in northern Sweden so im outside, working from my laptop, enjoing the sun instead of sitting inside.
It´s a great feeling being able to work outside when you realy feel like it even tho our vacation is over for this year.
great day at work in other words :)

surface: microsoft powered "the island living room table"
not entirely true tho not far from it.
And, still a hell of a, to the point website presentation and touch has a very, very high "i want one for our living room" factor :)
If it would ever get released with a better looking bottom half of the table i would pick one up for our living room in a hearbeat, that´s for sure.

youtube.a day in the wild
Animal planet is a great tv channel and here´s a real life clip that could have been directly from one of it´s safari shows covering the swamp lion flock.
A group of lion encounters a hord of buffalos and takes down one of the youngsters only to have to battle it out with a croc before the buffalos strike back and rescues the little one.
It was aparently filmed by a group of tourists during a safari.
Great and emotional clip, however i realy cant see how the poor buffalo would survive that encounter, i hope im wrong but im pretty sure he died in a few days due to his wounds, but, granted the buffalo is one of the tough ones and seeing them waging war with the lions aint surprising considering how buffalos and lions actually hunt each other(buffalos tend to raid lion nests and kill their young ones whenever possible, and lions of course eats as many buffalos as possible).
Heres the youtube clip

plaza hotel.new york
Plaza hotel, which was sold in 2004 has reportedly sold it´s most expensive apartment so far for 50 million us$, quite a nice pricetag for an apartment.
And with hundreds of apartment left the new owner seems to be set to make quite a nice profit.
Plaze is reported to have 182 private apartments with up to five bedrooms, and the building also have 150 room and suites that the owners can rent up to 120 days per year, not to mention the 130 rooms that will be available for day to day rent.

stoned to death in public..
One more sad milestone for humanity.
17 year old Du’a Khalil Aswad was stoned to death by 9 men right out in the open in front of hundreds of people, not a single person stepped in to save her.
Sadly alot of people filmed the murder with their cellphones, yeah that´s civil curage.... her only crime was falling in love with the wrong guy.
To think that hundreds of people stood there, some even cheering during the 30 minutes she was slowly stoned ´til death is just so pathetic and tragic, i guess it´s life´s irony that the only good thing to come out of it was that some of the cowards did put up the footage on the web, and that way the worldwide pressure for democracy in iraq might someday prevail when it comes to inhuman traditions like this.

Budhia sing. 500km one way sprint
Budhia sing, the 5 year old indier that caused a worldwide slur one year ago when tv filmed his inhuman childhood.
The entire world could see how Budhia was forced to run roughly 65 km without drinking water in a blistering hot summerday in india, no more then 4 years old, and now he´s coach is back.
later this year, Budhia will travel, by foot of course, 500km straight through india, from Bhubaneswar in the east to calcutta in the western parts of India.
Well being athletic is all good, in fact i´ve trained on a pretty high level myself more or less my entire adult life, and during my childhood i played ice hockey, soccer and practiced martial arts all year round.
But that was all for fun, i loved being active and that´s nothing but good for ya as long as it´s on your own terms, but this is nothing but insane.
Having a 5 year old doing things like this and what we could see on last years documentary will damage him for life, one way or another.
sad life and a sad story seeing how India just lets his coach get away with it.
