The oil catastrophe in the Timor Sea off the north west coast of Australia where an oilrig is on fire is tragic news, you can read more on that here at BBC.
The owner is Norwegian and that apparently make the newspapers here go nuts. This is the photo they choose to present the owner.

I… don’t quite know what to say. Do media this on purpose to make people appear ridiculous?
On Friday Alexander Rybak’s new album will be released and it is already receiving both negative and positive remarks. Newspapers give it 4, 6 and 1. The 1 is from Sweden but I guess they’re just jealous – they didn’t do well in this years Eurovision Song Contest.
You can check out his new album here : Alexander on Myspace. I’m very excited to hear what Ken thinks of this, could you check it out Ken A? 
Especially Roll With The Wind.
Do you like his music?
Newspapers are giving him rolls like 1, 4, 5 and 6! 6 is a bit much but 1? I hate it when “music experts” lash out like Markus Larsson calling Alexander a violinhobbit, Isn’t that a bit off? It reminds me of Idol when our Norwegian Kurt was called a hobbit by Simon Cowell :
Larsson says something like
Sounds like “smurf Hits”
The example that is captivated by Rybaks Irish folk song “Roll with the wind” has probably never listened to The Water Boys album “Fisherman’s Blues”. And anyone who can swallow the sentimental musical and brave old Tin Pan Alley codes – with texts in which magical dolphins and thirteen pieces horses swim around – do not require much of its pop.

Do you find this confusing? Why are they calling a Full HD TV HD Ready? What are they up to? Are they trying to confuse people on purpose? To let people think that all TVs are labelled HD Ready and lure them to buy TVs with lower resolution? The example above is indeed a Full HD so…
This is Elprice in Norway.
Lots of questions, no answers. Hmm that remind me of Lost, I look forward to next season.
In the series of marvelous headlines ITAvisen printed an article “Judged for ‘net violence’”. Nerds like me thought “woah, someone is judged for violence in WoW or attempted murder in Day of Defeat. But it turned out to be about two persons in a chat who started to quarrel, one of them found the others address, went home and knocked him down, blah blah, boring! I hate it when they lure persons to read an article by speculating on how to put the subject.
