#13 – Spinning to Pulp and the greatest hits album. Enjoying Common People and Disco 2000, but … the rest, not my cup of tea while spinning.

An accident at home, the Prius in need of service.

Yesterday afternoon after hours of rain, suddenly the sun showed up.
Spinning to Mumford & Sons
#11 – Today I was spinning while listening to Mumford & Sons and their debut album Sigh No More. Got to known them by using Spotify and have long wanted to listen to the whole album without a pause. Must admit that I did not expect it to be the best “spinning-music”, but I was wrong…I really enjoyed it, just a few songs that where to …slow…

The tools and the nut
Drilling the hole in order to get out the coconut milk, which tasted like nothing I have ever tasted before, I guess I would have had to be deserted on an island before enjoying it.
So I ended up discarding the milk but making coconut macaroons of the rest. Actually tasted quite well I must say, even though they are not a sight for sore eyes.
Mouse in the kitchen?
I bought a bag of toffee for us to enjoy as soon as the kids had gone to bed yesterday, but when I opened the kitchen closet the bag was opened. Mouse?
Bambi on ice
Two days ago, the first snowfall here in Oslo. The garbage truck having major trouble trying to drive downhill next to us. Midway he crashed into the fence, then he turned around and tried to go reverse dowhnill, crashing into the fence by the yellow house as well. At last he managed to slide down without causing major damage.
Jython – Unpack the manifest-file from a jar on the Windows platfom
Decided to create a script based on Jython v 2.1 (WebSphere comes with that version) that finds all third party jar-files packed in a EAR-file. When found I also needed to read the MANIFEST.MF-file to figure out the version of the jar. To accomplish this I needed to execute jar.exe to be able to extract the manifest file, when that is done I can read the line implementation-version in the file.
First, import the needed Java-classes
import java.lang.ProcessBuilder as ProcessBuilder
import java.lang.Process as ProcessThen in the script
pb = ProcessBuilder(['cmd.exe', '/C', 'd:/WebSphere/AppServer/java/bin/jar.exe','xvf', 'd:/path/lib', 'META-INF/MANIFEST.MF']);
pb.directory(io.File('d:/temp'))
process = pb.start()
process.waitFor()
process.destroy()Norwegian elkhound and winter tyres
Today at Vestreng an unknown visitor suddenly came by, a very friendly representative of the Norwegian Elkhound. He was obviously tired of hunting, since he spent almost an hour together with us before heading of to work again. Here he is walking into the sun together with me and Anders.
Then later in the afternoon, when at home in Oslo – winter is here, changed tyres on my car.
