		<title>Wintery Weekend at the Countryside</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
This weekend I was facing a tough choice: seize the first and possibly only chance to go enjoy the winter in our cabin in the countryside, or to stay at home to finish up some work, to play some Fallen Earth or Assassins Creed II, and to be social. The cabin has been my fortress [...]]]></description>

		<title>Älymystö Album Release Tour &amp; Iron Sky Goes Germany</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
I&#8217;m currently at home, reeling from the shock of the shock caused by my surroundings. In the last month I&#8217;ve spent about five days at home, the rest of the time being eaten by our diving trip to Hurghada, which I wrote about in the previous blog post, followed by Älymystö&#8217;s album publication tour and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christmas Under the Red Sea</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
So, my half a year stint in the National Library of Finland drew to close in the end of the year. I would have had the chance to continue there, but the information about it reached me rather late and I already had something else cooking. Continuing in the academia would have been fun, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Short Introduction to Critical Thinking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
I&#8217;m fairly active in certain kinds of net conversations, which usually have to do with more or less controversial subjects. What really bugs me is the fact that most people have no damn clue about how to separate their own personal tastes and beliefs from facts or scientific evidence, never mind understanding the difference between [...]]]></description>

		<title>All Operating System User Interfaces Suck &#8211; I Want Something Task-Oriented</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Some time ago a pal peeked over my shoulder when I was working on my home office computer and went &#8220;whoa, dude, your Dock is full!&#8221; I&#8217;m so used to seeing the 30 or so icons stuffed into the lower part of my desktop that it took me a moment to realise what he was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wreck Diving in Narvik</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
In the middle of the October Susi and I finally went on an eagerly awaited diving trip to northern Norway, in the city of Narvik. It&#8217;s one of the best wreck diving locations in the world, since during the World War II it was a strategically very important location, being the only efficient port for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Urban Exploration: An Old Russian Fortification (1915)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
A couple of weeks back Sameli, whom I knew only as a handle in local UE websites and Flickr, asked me to come with him to check out one of the World War I fortifications that can be found a-plenty around Helsinki area. We had talked about them earlier, but I&#8217;ve never been energetic enough [...]]]></description>

		<title>Adventures in Diving: Waves, Currents and Live Munitions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Last Saturday Susi and I went for the first diving trip after far too long a pause. The last time I was underwater was the Park Victory trip a month ago, but for Susi the pause was a little big longer. We&#8217;ve closing on to our trip to Narvik to check out some WWII hardware, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Geotrip Featuring an Abandoned Kindergarten</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Last weekend I went for a short geotrip, but ended up finding a few cool places &#8211; like a windmill near the area I used to live for years and an abandoned kindergarten. That&#8217;s the cool thing about hobbies like geocaching. You end up going to all kinds of weird places you&#8217;d otherwise never see.
I [...]]]></description>
