Using wsadmin to install an application I wanted to add a description to an application edition. Was not able to find any documentation telling me what are valid parameters to apply to the options string, so I just tried “-description”, returning the error

The Fog of War
Spent the evening in front of the tv instead of going to bed early…damn! But, it was worth it – Swedish Television showed the movide “The Fog of War”
[video:youtube:VgA98V1Ubk8]The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara is a 2003 American documentary film about the life and times of former U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara.
Very interesting to hear McNamara telling the story himself. I am sure that McNamara wasn’t flawless, but that does not make it a good movie worth spending time seeing.
More than 100 times using my bike to work this year
Last Friday I had my 100’th time using my bike to work this year, which gives me about 3600 kilometers just commuting. What better way to celebrate that than having several large pieces of Vidars 50’th birthday cake, made all out of white chocolate, it was delicious!!!

Introducing Anders for Terrengsykkelrittet
Two days ago, after about one and a half week without rain Espen and I decided to introduce Anders for Terrengsykkelrittet. He will participate next year, so he had to get to know the trail. We started out at five o’clock and was out for about three hours. I did bring along the video camera as well and compiled a short movie from our nice ride.

Switch-case statement in Phyton
I’m not all that familiar with Phyton, but since Jython ,which is the Java implementation of Phyton, is the preferred scripting language for WebSphere I do need to dive into it now and then. Today I needed to check if input parameter to a script was equal to a given value, then check a property file for the corresponding key/value pair. If key/value pair not present then check if the common default value where there. If if all is false, then just break out of the script.
As you might have figured out this will get a bit messy, so I thought that maybe a switch-case statement could help me out to make it a bit cleaner. First I found this article at Bytebaker switch-case-statement-in-python showing a “fake” implementation of swich-case, since it turns out that Phyton does not have this functionality. “Yes!!!”, but then it turned out no…I read the comments to the post and at the end found the follow-up article “Switch-case statement in Python revisited“. So back to square one again…
Kiwi – not a good idea
At work we get a fruit basket twice a week. The past few weeks they have added a lot of kiwis which is a good idea in theory since kiwi is very good…but in real life at work, not such a good idea. We get a few plastic tools to help us eat the fruit, but it is not as sharp as a real knife making it impossible to peel the kiwi. And eating it with the spoon…did not turn out as I had hoped. Luckily I am an experienced kiwi eater so I had a paper towel underneath, but still, look at the result
Fire drill at work – what a lovely day!
When I was about to enter the building and go down to the locker room today I was a bit surprised since so many people where on their way out. Realized fast what is was since there where some of them where walking around with reflective vests. So I just had to turn around and go out and enjoy the sun. Good thing, since I then had time to do some stretching as well. Played around with my cell phone in the nice weather, took pictures of all the people outside, me in the sun, my new mtb shoes in the sun, people walking in to the building in the sun. Not the worst thing that could happen 🙂
Parrot out walking
The Hangover (the movie)
Spent the evening watching The Hangover. Ok, not the movie that makes you want to go out and save the world afterwards, but hey, who cares!! Classic moment when Mike Tyson is playing Phil Collins on the piano! Well worth the DVD-money…
