A quick remix of NRKBeta’s movie capture of the final route for the new city railway in Bergen (“Bybanen“). It was too long in regular speed, so I put it in 8x fast forward using iMovie and added a soundtrack to it (Night Train/Yello). Yagshemash, you like!?

I used the high-res torrent as source, so 1,8GB (for 3:36min) was uploaded to YouTube and is now available in 1080p (it defaults to 720p, however) for your viewing pleasure.

Ilsa, vår innekatt, som faktisk er inne, har fanget et kjøttmeidunge på verandaen vår i dag. Den andre katten prøvde å bølle til seg fangsten, men slukkøret måtte begge to konstatere at matmor er sjef. Trøstepremien er egg, så helt katt-a-strofe var det ikke.

Yay, it’s Friday, and better yet: My vacation has started! Since it’s Friday, here’s some dubstep for you to enjoy!

Bybanen 3 by Kjell Jøran Hansen ( kjelljoran on flickr)

En eller flere busser, båter, tog eller bybaner er forsinket eller innstillt et eller annet sted i fylket.

Brukere som er berørt av dette vil merke det før eller siden, da deres transportmiddel ikke vil befinne seg på gitt sted til gitt tid.

De berørte bes om å vente lenger eller eventuellt å finne alternativ transport.

Java Conference 2006 by Matteo Penzo ( matteopenzo on flickr)

Expression Language makes working with Java Server Pages a slightly less pain in the behind. But, its functionality is very limited, there is for instance no way to round off a number, neither as floor, ceiling or to the closest integer

Floor(foo) -> ${foo - ( foo % 1 ) }
Ceiling(foo) -> ${foo + ( 1 - (foo%1)) % 1}
Round(foo) -> ${foo +0.5 - ((foo+0.5) % 1) }

This still gives you a float, so to get an integer, you must either use the <fmt:formatNumber>-tag

<fmt:formatNumber value="${foo - ( foo % 1 ) }" var="fooAsInt" maxFractionDigits="0"/>

(really, this returns a string, representing the number without the decimals. But as EL automatically casts between strings, floats and integers, this is mostly OK.)

or you can hack it using fn:replace():

${fn:replace(foo - ( foo % 1 ),'.0','') }

(Yes, you may use singlequotes for strings in EL, even though this is supposed to be Java….)

Bildeoppdateringer er enkle.

Her er skoskapenre med fire like orginale knotter.

Jeg har satt på to typer knotter- noen litt store roser oppe, og noen litt flatere enkle nede. Fire like så detaljerte ville bli for mye syns jeg.

There’s been a few weeks since my last friday mix, here it is though. This time with some drums to go with the bass. Drum & Bass.
