Ice in Haarlem

Thu, 12/12/2002 - 3:35am

Bird on the ice.It's been horribly cold the last few days, winter is definately not my season.

However, for all those people who do like skating things look pretty nice. Even the Spaarne is starting to get frozen.

While I was walking to work I took 2 pictures.

Late Sinterklaas present

Wed, 12/11/2002 - 3:46pm

Today I bought "de Strijd om de Macht" (the Power Struggle) by Jacques Monasch.

He was one of the spindoctors of the Dutch Labour Party (PvdA) that suffered a huge defeat at the last elections and wrote a book about his experiences this summer. It's gonna be a while before I'll start with it because I still have a lot to read.

New layout

Wed, 12/11/2002 - 3:31pm

Every once in a while I feel the need to update the layout of the website a bit. Made some small changes, I hope you like it.


The old layout is still available of course, in 'my account'.

Chess meeting Utrecht

Tue, 12/10/2002 - 10:34am

There's a Chess meeting in Utrecht this evening.

I hope the trains back to Haarlem will go; yesterday evening when I came back from Ettie it was pretty bad. There were hardly any trains at all leaving from Centraal Station and I had to wait there 45 minutes.

This time I'm fully prepared: I'm bringing enough to read for about 2 or 3 hours and a walkman.

Janneke e-mailed me about a project on creating Escher's paintings with Lego.

The small image here shows Escher's "Ascending and Descending", with the famous eternal stairs.

Weekend Middenmeer

Sun, 12/08/2002 - 6:02am

Mieke going for the first place.Yesterday afternoon we went to Gerrie's birthday in Opperdoes.

In the evening we played -surprisingly- a few games. It has to be mentioned: Mieke won the 2nd Steden & Ridders!

Today I'll read a bit. From the library I have a compilation of essays on politics. It's called "de Kwetsbare Democratie" and contains a wide variety of articles from Adam Smith, Aristoteles, Marx etc.

Article on Haskell

Fri, 12/06/2002 - 9:15am

Research tools: books, laptop, coffee.I think I found a second design-method to investigate. There's a really interesting article on using Haskell as a high-level design language for Co-Design.


During the last weeks I found a number of papers, and it's very useful to spent a whole day only reading them.
