However I didn't manage to remove the outlines from buttons. Any ideas how? ...read more

Hyundai Accent MC 1.6 DOHC 4 doors GLS A/T Premium

October 5th, 2008 in Personal 5 comments
I didn't post since august. It was about time to write something new. Well... I bought myself a car. A brand new one. It is a Hyundai Accent, 1.6 liter, 4 doors, automatic transmission and it cost me around 14.000 €.

Why did I choose to buy this one? It is really simple... cause for that amount of money I had no other options. Of course before buying the Accent I checked other car makers and models. None of them offered so many extras for the car.

I checked first a Skoda Fabia. It was around 11.000 € with not many extras. Only front electrical windows, just frontal airbags, no alloy wheels, no commands on the steering wheel. With the extras I have on the Accent, the Fabia would be around 14.000 € and for sure is smaller. Then I went to check out the VolksWagen (VW) Golf V at 17.000 ...read more

Mauser HSc mod 90 10x22T

August 5th, 2008 in Personal 5 comments
I waited more than 1 month to receive the license to detain, carry and use a self defense gun. I had a lot of headache to get all the paperwork together to fulfill the requirements. I had to go to doctors, psychologist and police, spend a lot of money so they would approve that I'm healthy (not that I wouldn't be), then pay some taxes, a lot of bureauacracy. But now all that is over.

I received the license yesterday (4th August 2008) and the same day I want to buy the gun. I'm talking about a Mauser HSc mod 90. The caliber used is 10x22T. Can fire blanks, gas and rubber bullets. I'm allowed to fire only rubber bullets with it. I didn't tested it yet, but I will, in the shooting range facility. I hope I'll never be forced to use it on somebody, human or animal.

Logitech KINETIK 15.4 Backpack

May 15th, 2008 in Other 2 comments
Another excellent Logitech product in my hands. I have to admit, it looks and feels great. This backpack is huge. There is a lot of space inside the backpack. More than you expect from first look.

Before buying this Logitech backpack I used the Kensington Contour Cargo Notebook Sleeve. I'm still using it if I have to carry only the notebook. I had one problem with this one, I couldn't carry more than my notebook, charger and mouse.

I ordered the backpack from an online store, I received it in 1 day, it came in a big box. When I spotted the big box I tough that the backpack must be really big. I was wrong, it was big cause of the protective packaging. The backpack is comfortable, feels good on my shoulders, has many and expanding compartments. It is good balanced and won't fall over ...read more

Why I ride a bike?

May 5th, 2008 in Personal 1 comment
There are many reasons, but most likely because I enjoy it and it's fun. Cycling is an opportunity to know a different world. It can be dangerous, I did hurt myself many times, once even left half of my face without skin. It was painful, my face got back normal, but this was a lesson. I even got hit by cars, still no broken bones and I hope I woun't brake any.

Cycling is healthy. I don't like and I don't lift weights, I never diet, I rarely see a doctor. Cycling keeps me lean, fit, healthy, and happy. Then it is more economical. I don't have to spend money for fuel and car insurance, I can do something else with that amount. Not to mention that I don't pollute the environment. Some people do automobile trips for short distances and I don't understand why can't they simply walk, use a ...read more
