Caumasee
A big (0.10km2), 997m high spring water (feeds from the ground, not from rivers!)


It's summer and walking about in high altitudes feels very good.
Especially when you are looking at beautiful green/blue Caumasee (Switzerland) from the top.

Placebo Effect
What the hell?

We all heard of "placebo", the effect or the band. I am curious to understand (fully) the effect (not of the band).

Quite curious.
A man with no sight seems to have.. plenty of insight. And he can paint it.


How could he possibly do it? Born blind?
I must say I don't understand it, but here is an approx.
10 min long video on youtube made by Discovery channel, trying to explain just a little.
Oh also, obviously some scientists are trying to understand what's going on.


Ok, I think one must see the video. Yes.

Cute. Yep. "Will the bear please rise?" :)

    "SKOPJE, Macedonia: A court in Bitola, a city in western Macedonia, has found a bear guilty on charges of ruining a local beekeeper's apiary. The court has ruled that the bear owes around $3,000 in damages.

    Since bears do not deal in cash, the government will have to cover the damages on her behalf. [...]"

The Cut (Planet Ash)

A young multinational band based in Helsinki, Finland. There are 4 songs at the site as of the time of this review. Yes I know the people, but I seriously think the songs are above average, plus the singer has a fantastic voice. If they keep going (which I think they will), I can see that they have a bright future. Check it out.

They don't have their CD out yet, but if you contacted them, I am sure they would tell you how and where and when you can get some more of their music.

My friends and some kind strangers ask protest ..
where the h#@&% are you, you didn't post since August!

Well I recently moved from Helsinki to Zurich. I do not have proper Internet connection from home, so my personal time at the Inet is a little limited. Now (tomorrow) I am off to Bamberg for two weeks and then to Istanbul for a week, and I suspect will be away from "home" (whatever that is!) yet another week in January. I have many pictures and SUblah's (my blah blah around my pics on SU here) waiting - I do expect another active period as the winter sets in. Well that is unless I pick up the skiing and get really enthusiastic about it ;)



Image from Amsterdam, 2006. It's just got nothing to do with
what I say above. And I probably should've put something from Zurich - oh well, next one, I like this one now :)

From Firenze, with love ♥ ♥
or should we say: 2006, An Italian Oddity
(and a very cute oddity at that .. the expression is merely a free association)


So the Firenze (Florence) people use locks. Not like you and I do, though (see picture).
In this time and age, it's quite a statement. But it is no surprise, of course, as it comes from a people of Romance after all :)

An Italian fellow was saying that the local city authorities were not all that happy about it. I can't remember the reasoning. It was a charming sight for me, however, as I had no previous notion of it. Now I am here to spoil your surprise. If you ever go to Firenze, look around and you will see something like that. And if you have a love to declare to the world, perhaps you want to take a lock with you, and permanent(*) marker pens. Just in case.


Locks of love.
Who thought of this for the first time, I wonder. Surely they never imagined it catching up like this :)
Florence, Italy, 2006 August.


(*) Though do keep the word permanent in mind, because I may be around to make a picture of it and then even if you remove the lock, the world gets to learn who you are in love with :-)

Also check this locks of love.
