Blokken ad

Thu, 14 Jun 2007 16:08:31 +0200

Little Louis sees his playing blocks been taken away... This is one of the ads for the Belgian TV-Quiz “Blokken”. They were all made by deMENSEN, production house of “Blokken”, but were unfortunately refused by the VRT, the Belgian public broadcasting company. As states the newpaper De Standaard, it reminds us of the controversy photographs of 27 crying kids by the American photographer Jill Gr

New desktop in Leopard...

Tue, 12 Jun 2007 23:42:06 +0200

As I am a quite heavy mac user, I am thrilled about Leopard (see the demos...), the new operating system that Steve Jobs presented yesterday morning at the WDDC07 in San Fransisco. It was not the first preview, but this keynote address turned out to be much more revealing than many of you thought! With over 300 new features - and not just minor updates - Leopard leaves Windows Vista far behind. A

Leen Dierick werd “verkozen” tot eerste schepen van Dendermonde, en dacht: “Laat ik het ook maar eens proberen voor het parlement.” Ze kreeg 22.000 voorkeurstemmen. Dit wordt jullie 4 jaar lang voorgeschoteld... Leve de democratie! :-p

Watch this.. a guy in a wheelchair got stuck in the front of a truck and took a 5 mile ride by 50 miles per hour...

Little rabbits...

Thu, 7 Jun 2007 09:24:42 +0200

Jubel (top photo) curiously watching to my camera.. It’s such a cutie! Unfortunately it’s his last week at home. Sure nothing will come amiss to him. The two little rabbits - Jubel and Vitabis are still separated from their father, Nijn (three photos on the left). You can see that Jubel is a son from his dad - amazingly cute! See how he was falling asleep, with his legs in the air :-)

starit down once more?

I experienced some slow loading of the pages but at first I didn’t really know why. Now I found out that the rating system on the page, which is fed by a java script situated on an external server. Unfortunately, I won’t be able for now to move the file, because it is hosted by a php capable server. Anyway - I keep hoping, because starit iss still the smoothest looking rating system out there.

Esmée Denters for Tennman Records

Wed, 6 Jun 2007 16:10:01 +0200

Read at standaard.be : Esmée Denters (18) to sign a contract as the first artist for Tennman Records. Justin Timberlake had set up this record label last week together with Interscope and is “thrilled to present its discoveries to the world”. Seems like the Dutch girl Esmée is Justin’s first discovery. At first sight, this “YouTubeGirl” is chosen for her cute look, but once the loading bar is com

metronet Brussel in 2020

Mon, 4 Jun 2007 00:02:04 +0200

“Droom even mee met dit plan.” Zo begint de redevoering van de Brusselse Vlaamse Liberalen in hun “Blauw Brusselplan”, de verkiezingsbrochure van de open vld. Ik heb enorm veel respect voor elke nieuwe impuls die het openbaar vervoer in onze hoofdstad tracht te verbeteren. Recente permededelingen zijn daar mooie voorbeelden van. Zelf tekende ik als kleine jongen al te graag met alcoholstift metro-

Used to be posted some days earlier... Here’s a photo I wanted to show you months ago - I even didn’t have an operational blog. Is this the work of a Banksy fan? This piece (spotted in the city of Ghent) has been removed last time I passed... a pity!
