Autumn colours during busy hours
Autumn colours are once again approaching Helsinki. The first hints can be seen on the yellow and red spots in the trees. The full blown colourful play will start most probably in a week or two. If you haven’t experienced autumn colours somewhere up north, I suggest to go some year. The view is spectacular. In Finland, we have own word ‘ruska’ for this phenomenon.
Unfortunately, I seem to be too busy to enjoy the colours. My brand spanking new Nikon D-70 is laying in camera backbag for two weeks now. I have once put the power on, to see that the battery is ok and camera does not complain immediately.
Maybe I can spare some time during the weekend to put a lens and a memory card to the camera and shoot some pictures of colourful foliage. Currently, I’m still stuck with the XML course. I have still three lectures that miss slides, but fortunately the bulk of the job is already done. I’ve refreshened a lot of memories and learned also something new during this project. It has been tiresome, yes, but worth of it.
After I have done the slides, I have to add content to several web sites that I’m administrating, write a couple small web applications and then continue to work with new nomadig.com features, or things start to pile up. This will take a week or two, then I could think — for a moment, though — that I’m free and I can indulge myself by reading books (that are also piling up). Most probably something will pop up and my free time slips once again away from me.

OT - I was trying to figure when this menu problem occurs for me as it doesn’t happen all the time. It seems a new post triggers it as does my posting a comment. Don’t know if that helps.

I can’t reproduce it. I’m using Firefox 0.9.3 on Windows XP, and I see my site in perfect order. This may be due to the settings that my browser fetch pages from the net every time I view them. This is not changeable through FF interface - or I haven’t found it - but it’s copied from my Mozilla profile. I need to study how to turn it off and try again.
