Explosions in Helsinki – For A Tunnel???
It is 9 o’clock in the evening here and we’ve just had another one of these explosions, which seemingly have moved right under our apartment. Helsinki is building a tunnel!! You keep wondering what this relatively small city needs a tunnel for. Congestion? Probably more than 5 cars in a row is considered a traffic jam. It is unbelievable that not only the entire city population is terrorized by its own municipal government with earthshaking explosions but even worse: nobody complains about it. No outrage, no concern about buildings, no question about necessity. With seemingly delighted ease is money wasted on constructing a tunnel under the center! Explosions start here at 7 in the morning and go as late as 9 in the evening!
I can’t wait to get out of this madness!
I now completely switched to the Mac tools after I found the right combination (iView+Downsize+Transmit). I am not completely happy with the quality of the downsized photos created by Downsize but it will do for now. Of course, the Photoshop I used on the PC was much better but I just did not feel like buying it now for the Mac. Plus, Downsize is very fast in downsizing, adding border and watermarking. iView is quite nice though I found some glitches when it does not properly updates folders. The editing tools are quite basic but they really work. The webpage creation feature is excellent though I also found some problems there, when you try to change the pre-defined templates. But, overall, the Mac experience went quite well and it gave me the opportunity of making some use of our (quite nice) Mac that was mainly used for video editing and sitting quite under-utilized most of the time.
