too much comix to digest at once: bubblesoap, mr man, doug allen.

and: wow, moccu. some design after a while...

telepolis: "am 26. Juli beschloss die vereinigung amerikanischer anorexiekranker anad (national association of anorexia nervosa and associated disorders) den zahlreichen homepages und onlineforen, in denen magersucht als lebensstil und nicht als krankheit propagiert wird, den kampf anzusagen".

another example of the difference between good-will and well-done. since yahoo! banned 21 pro-ana (ie. pro-anorexia) sites from their server, many girls and women feel separated from the support of their virtual community. "they cut off our lifeblood", says 22 year old anorexic silent chaos in an interview with the boston globe.

eating disorders are a public desease. i believe that more people suffer from it than anyone can imagine. its offshoots are closer to you than you might think since anorectics and bulimics consequently try to hide their desease from their social environment and rather suffer secretly.

set.point is a viennese therapy group whose guestbook illustrates some of the emotions and motives behind the mere diagnosis.

student's radio is here to come? live from dornbirn, vorarlberg: achwelle.

"girl, together we can change the world or at least the music industry." – consolidated, "college radio".

exceptionally, i cordially welcome a weblog i just spotted on blogger's update list (although i hardly can read a word): hello, lubbi tíkarson hugsar upphátt, the first icelandic weblog that crossed my way. which doesn't mean there aren't many: a bunch of icelandloglinks is just waiting there...

palatschinke: the austrian term for "thin, rolled pancake filled with jam or the like" stems from the synonymic hungarian palacsinta which probably traces back over romanian placinta to latin placenta "flat cake" – note the medical term placenta. The latin word was imported to the danube area by roman soldiers.

posted my first file on the pile: the funky "världens bästa karlsson", the original swedish title song of the movie based on astrid lindgren's book.

it's war, she cried, soccer *!

greek mythology link. almost 100 megs of biographies, events, maps and much more about the old greeks.

"we know enough to make up lies which are convincing, but we also have the skill, when we will, to speak the truth." – the internet muses to hesiod; hesiod, theogony 25.

wonderful, a synopsis of disney's and the original hercules.

the production of a bell (bell casting) is an incredibly fascinating as well as complex and exhausting process. on the week-end i watched an extensive tv-documentation about the activities at the eifeler glockengiesserei mark. in the end there was a bell weighing 7 tons and being tuned exactly to the tones as calculated in the beginning.

classic papers on bell tuning.

"there are many bells so radically wrong that there is nothing to be done with them except 'put up with' them, or send them to the melting-pot." – a. b. simpson, on bell tones no. ii.
