Very few of you might have noticed that Ehrensenf I mentioned yesterday doesn’t offer a RSS feed with enclosures, so you can’t add it to your favorite podcatcher (go Democracy!!!) for automatic downloading of new episodes.

As a regular Rocketboom viewer, I was introduced in December to the german show Ehrensenf (ES) (anagram of Fernsehen, or television), which I since then catch daily, too.

An article titled Icelandic euros sold on eBay in Morgunblaðið caught my attention today.

Indo-European languages all had this beautiful case system with at least four base cases, nomenative, accusative, dative and genitive (which is the Icelandic order) and usually a few more.

Hmm… today, I heard we’re supposed to do 30 rounds (without rest) in less than an hour by the end of the season… That’s next month by the way.

I was pointed to this U2 music video (transcoded to h.264) yesterday.

In response to the European countries which are starting to take action against the closed-off DRM software by Apple called FairPlay, Steve Jobs personally responded with an open letter to the European government and the music industry titled Thoughts on Music on the website of the computer company.

Well, this is filed under holiday, but of course it will be hard work. I applied today for Kalmar, the Scandinavia Study Tour in 2008 of GEWIS. This study tour will visit the cities of Trondheim (world famous for their bike elevator… well at least among Rocketboom viewers, Stockholm and Helsinki.

Obligatory reading material for every IKEA fan!

Als das Kind Kind war, ging es mit hängenden Armen,

Alles war ihm beseelt und alle Seelen waren eins.

With these words starts Der Himmel über Berlin, a movie by Wim Wenders (who is from Düsseldorf). It is set in 1987 Berlin, the divided Berlin. At that time cracks were already starting to show, the Cold War was thawing.
