Deconstruction

I have an enormous affection for buildings that have a deconstruction style. Like buildings by Frank Gehry or Zaha Hadid. Today I found one on Bright.nl, a theater in Lelystad. Taken from the site of UN studio, the architects of the theater; ....The building’s envelope is composed of an overlapping multi-faceted surface that, because of perforations, creates a moiré or kaleidoscopic effect....
It might be time to travel to Lelystad to see the thing in real time.

Queen bicycle jerseys

I've always been hoping for the day to come of decent Queen bicycle shirts, and today I found a link at Queenzone where you can buy something like that. I'm thinking of buying one but I'm not totally sure yet as I have more than enough shirts....
You can find the shirts here.My personal favorite, above ....

Aiptek pen tablet

I recently bought an Aiptek Hyperpen 8000U at the Aiptek store.
I've been looking for quite some time for a WACOM tablet but in my opinion they were to expensive. It is also my first pen tablet so I have little to compare too.
Till now I'm very satisfied with my pen tablet, only thing I dislike about it is the mouse.
Thing is reacting very slowly and needs a lot of strength to be pushed around.
The pen is working very well, reacts also very well and great thing is that it needs only some drivers to function. I hate it to install large amounts of unneeded software.
The tablet is quite big quite big with dimensions of 34,2 by 33,6 by 2,2 cm. It is not really a tablet you take when traveling but for workstation use it is very good.
