Geek Monday – filming propellers with cellphone
Checking the ice thickness
I am scanning old photos and this one from 1991 or 92 brought back lots of memories. That day we were checking the security on the Pasvik river (between Norway and Russia) and how the ice held. Since I were the lightest one that day I had to go first on the worst areas..
The photo is taken with an old Zenith camera. 
A cozy store
Wordless Wednesday – welcome committee
PS! If you’re a cat and came from Daisy the curly cat I’m sorry if I scared you – I posted to the wrong linky. :/
A bit silly today
Am I the only one who think media finds the stranges photos of people when they are trying to ridicule them? If I’m right I think this is sad, but then again.. a bit funny. Like this one. John Fredriksen was Norway’s richest man until he chose to abandon his Norwegian citizenship and take up a Cypriot passport. (Wiki) Hes one of the many who made a fortune during the Iran-Iraq wars in the 1980s, the Wiki is worth a read.
80 meters down or 80 centimeters?
When I was a kid and found sites like this I let my imagination fly and pretended it was a huge landscape with large mountains and bolder rocks.
Cycling the The Navvies Road
It was time for a trip with the sports school this weekend and this time we were cycling the Navvies Road (Rallarvegen) from Finse to Flåm. 1222 meters over the ocean to 2 meters, quite a drop! Rallarvegen is the old construction road navvies used while building our railway in the 19th and early 20th centuries. We were 36 adults and children this time and decided to rent bikes instead of bringing our own. I think that is wise, when we rent them we know we are secured with good breaks and tires. It was an awesome trip, 53 wonderful kilometers!
Though it is mostly down hill my body still aches, its a bumpy ride and in some areas you have to be really careful and concentrated, some places there are no fences and the view down is breathtaking.
This one kind of reminded me from a scene in Half Life 2
A weird view, can you see the train? (Flåmsbanen)
A charming bridge
We’re going down there?

Do you like my blog’s new look?
Do you like the new theme? Its made by Niyaz, a computer engineer from Kerala in India. I love the fresh look and I think its going to work well on my blog. You can read more about Niyaz here and more about the theme here, his blog is recommended reading.
What do you think?
Update: I am hopeless… I cannot decide, I just know that I need a new theme.
Oh, heres a shot I took the other day – forgot to upload it in my latest post, I thought the effect was fun.
My blog-database crashed
All was going well with my blog but there was something I wanted to do. But I managed to crash my database, I rendered it completely useless. A while ago my photoblog crashed and then I decided to schedule the backup in cron, I took a full backup then I monitored the backup-size and saw it grow so I thought it was fine. But it wasn’t. It was generating rubbish and I lost everything. Luckily I managed to de-rubbish some of the data.
Remember backup my friends! Now I’ve managed to reconstruct the latest posts but they are empty, I am searching for buffered and cached data on my server and on search engines…
Thanks Google for buffering my pages! Now I’m using that to recreate the content…
