I collected my brand new Yamaha XT660Z Tenere this morning and went on a nice (but cold) trip arround the Lek river. So I came across the city of Nieuwpoort where in 1600 a famous battle was fought against the Spanish army (and won!).

This and dozens of other questions are being answered athe  the New Scientist "Last Word" Column. Its one of my favorite websites. It's a mix of wit, insight and scientific curiosa. TLW's most prolific answerer by far is one Jon Richfield, a retired
computer scientist in Stellenbosch, South Africa. His first reaction to TLW's riddles is often "No clue!" or "Who cares?"
Then "the next thing you know, it's 'Oh, well, let's have a go.'" This
has happened about 300 times...

One of the best stories of WWII: the devastation of the heavy water plant at Rjukan in Norway. The Germans made D20 in order to build an atomic bomb. Because of clever intelligence and outstanding survival technics the plant was destroyed. The movie with Kirk Douglas is mostly a fantasy, I am reading the book and viewing the TV series by Ray Mears called the REAL heroes of Telemark and it is still after all those years amazing stuff.

It's a go!

Eddie holds his first exhibition show at Naarden. Together with No he will show his collection for the next five days. It looks rather professional doesn't it?

Lois Pryce is quit a girl: she left everything she had to bike from Alaska to the southern Tip of Chile. She wrote a very funny novel about her trip in the style of Bridget Jones's Diary. I cannot wait for her second book in which she travels from London to Capetown.
