Zirkeltraining™ ★ The Range - Take A Look At Our Bag Collection. Bags of all kinds. Made from sports equipment leather, gym mats, and truck tarps. Used, of course. I refrain from public musings on whether sports equipment leather comes from old gym teachers ... (that would be in poor taste, after all)

Pixie Scheme III. For the iPad. Perhaps not entirely uninteresting for doodling (provided it also has usable integration with the iOS API).

Blogofile - I stumbled upon this while considering what to do. One of the many static blog engines in Python with Git integration. Could potentially be interesting for smaller sites (or e.g. for a metablog).

From the "pimp my Vim" department: UltimateVimPythonSetup. I am indeed a Vim fan, and some of the tips in there sound quite interesting. However, some things also go a bit too far for me, my reason for using Vim is precisely that I don't want an IDE, but an editor that mainly does one thing - source editing. But for the one or other out there maybe still (or precisely) interesting.

"A bomb on a plane heading to Germany? Admittedly, I'm just a science journalist, deal with physical phenomena, but frankly, I don't believe this news. It all fits too well. Here in my hotel are the interior ministers, and precisely now it is announced that Germany will soon be the target of a terrorist attack. This smells like a staged event."
