I have to post a bit, I require some sympathy now.

If you think the financial crisis and all is bad, imagine if the house next door was suddently occupied by anarchists. Yeah, real anarchists, about a 100 of them. Wearing skimasks, no less. And no, I (used to) live in a nice neighbourhood where this sort of thing does not happen. The occupied builing is owned by the city and is (was) vacant, due to undergo renovation after it was badly damaged by fungus.

So now I can look forward to running battles with the police and/or nazis, the odd bombing, and a general overabundance of heavily pierced people occationally wearing skimasks.

As a bonus I get to hear loud (and quite cool I must admit) music quite often (today they blocked the street and played all day) and see a lot of demonstrations/speeches. And hey, they lit quite a nice fire in the park just in front of my house to.

Here is a picture from the news today, I live in the yellow building i the background, you can barely see the window where I sit and type this near the top.

And yes, they blocked the entrance door to my house to, it's just left of the metal barrier they put up. I had to do the anarchist handshake just to get in. Luckily I can also go around the back to get in.

Cant wait to see how all this will affect the value of my home :(

Students form the university I studied at have put years of research into the aerodynamics of base-jumping. The flying suits used in this video are made to allow maximum control of the flight. The result is just mindboggling. Watch and enjoy! (Tip: these guys do NOT get cheap life insurance)
