Gestern habe ich über twitter (http://www.twitter.com/frauenfuss) von einem Hausbrand erfahren. Eine Familie hat fast ihr gesamtes Hab und Gut verloren. Hier kann man sicher darüber informieren: http://www.abgebrannt-wir-helfen.de und gleich etwas gutes tun und spenden.

Procrastination

Ok, here is the deal. I should be doing a lot right now. I should be reading a paper on the Kadi case. Actually more than one paper. I should be preparing my presentation for the 21st of June about “Constitutional Rights Protection In The International Order” and I also could / should work on my paper I am planing to hand in for publication based on my MA Thesis about R2P.

Well, I don’t. I fiddled around with my blog half the day, went to the canteen with friends today for lunch (I am at my old university in Osnabrück right now), did the dishes in my mates apartment so he can focus on his paper about the sociology of elites.

And for your (and my) entertainment. Have a look at this video called “Tales Of Mere Existence”

summer in the city – time for a new look

Hi there,
ok, I admit it has been a long time since I last wrote something. I decided this weekend, after finally taking the time to update to the latest wordpress version, that I would also have another go at the design. I really do like the current black and white cutline design. I also like my individualised header image. I hope you like it too. I know will need some time to think about this blog content wise. Happy for any suggestions.

update

Ok, after the automatic update to 2.8.4 kept failing and gave me the lovley “I don’t have a reason for this answer” aka “installation failed” and working my way through the support forums I decided to give it a go with the manual update, following the 3 step instruction, and so far everything seems to be working. I hope auto update will work with the next version, I also hope I don’t need to edit config.php again in order to get the plugin updates to work. If I do I at least now what to put in :) , so far…
