Snow in Spring

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 10:40:46 +0000

A series of unfortunate snow events. More snow than ever. An today is 6.March. It’s supposed to be spring. We already had 10 degrees Celsius this year and now we have more snow than ever. What about this global warming? They say global warming brings more snow to Switzerland. True for today. But it feels more like a global freezing.

See all this snow:

the radioguy said: carcrash, roadblock by snow, another crash and all other roads have snow. Buslines are closed today.

Fund raise for Haiti is over. We made about 25 bucks with ads revenue and I will add another 25 bucks. Means 50 Dollars will go to Haiti. This will make them 50 meals to eat or the first stone for a new building.

suvi.org is donating all your addclicks to Haiti

admin — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 17:08:38 +0000

A suvi.org blog post should start like this “traveling to haiti? not a good idea at the moment because of shaking grounds”. But its to serious at the moment. After the earthquake the people from haiti need our help. Not just now but also next month.

I decided to donate all the money from the ads that is coming in next February to UNICEF for Haiti.

All the money from the game ads and from the blog ads. Other topics like the theory or the adressbook and project don’t have ads. Please take also your chance and help the people in Haiti. They need new houses, roads, medical help and food.

Just in case you have already booked vacation in Dom Rep. Please still go there, because going to a place for vacation is giving work the people in that area.

What animal is the best in playing domino?

admin — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 11:17:51 +0000

Have you ever wondered yourself what animal is the bet in playing domino? Probably not. But some japanase did. Check out this fabulous tv report where there make a maze with domino stones and the animals should walk around to get the food. Getting the food without hitting the domino stones. The turtle is absolutely the best when it comes in making a mess with domino stones. The anteater doesn’t seem to like domino playing at all, or he is just not hungry. But surprisingly there is one cute animal that is able to pass by all of the stones without hitting on.

Check out this crazy japanaese animal playing domino movie.

JavaFX Viewer – Sneak Preview

admin — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 13:02:20 +0000

2010 is going to be full of new gadgets, toys, mobile-phone, tablet-pcs, e-papers, e-book readers ans so on. Probably also full of JavaFX application. JavaFX is bringing the power of Java and Flash to the desktop. The cool thing is that the apps run on Windows (other people), Mac (my friends) and Linux (me). JavaFX is still at the beginning and it is already making big progress. It gives developers the ability to easily show pictures + movies and modify them on move them around as wished. Simple effects as picture scale and mirror effects are already build in into JavaFX.

Here is the sneak preview of the JavaFX picture viewer:

JavaFX Viewer Sneak Preview

The JavaFX Picture viewer will be developed by suvi.org and friends. It is still a long way to go. So stay tuned on suvi.org for more information. Contact us, or leave a post if you would like to have more early-bird information.

Hi there. I am wishing you allready a very nice 2010! Whatever you are where ever you are.
To celebrate this i have here this funny pictures of the goverment of switzerland. This blocher guy tried to kick out some foreign people out of the country. Instead he got kicked out of the goverment. The goverment here in Schweiz/Suisse/Suiza/Suissa/Switzerland/Schwiizterland, or how ever you call the Helvetic Federation, is called Bundesrat. The Bundesrat are 7 people rulling the country. Each person is elected for is elected for at least 4 years. It is very rare that some get’s kicked out of a the bundesrat. Usually there are old people and retire anyway after a few years, but this guy really got kicked.

Bundesrat of Switzerland

This is Bundesrat blocher get kicket out of the Switzerland goverment. In the back you can see the Bundeshaus, the goverment building.

Australian Campervans compared, best car rental

admin — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 10:28:11 +0000

I am planning to go to Australia. The land of Oz. Ozstralia, where all the soil is red. The plan is to drive once trough the hole continent. From bottom to top. From the south to the north. From the cold to the hot. In other words from Adelaide to Darwin. Passing by Kangaru island and the red center with uluru (ayers rock).

This will be most fun with a campervan. Saving money for overnight stay because we can sleep in the van. There are many rental car companies in australia. Most of them offer the same typ of camper. If you don’t go offroad a 2WD is the better option than a 4WD. Lower in price an consuming less gasoline. Also driving faster. For two people a nice campervan is a so called hitop. They have a bed, gas oven, fridge, water tank and camping tables. There are some others types also suitable.

Things we considered:
Camper suitable for two people
Has camping equipment
Good Insurance. In case something happens we don’t have to deal with administrative work and money and can enjoy our vacation.
Price in Total (including additional Fees: like one way fee)

Here is the comparisan chart:

Company	No worries	Australian campervans	Britz
Campervantyp	Hitop	Nomad Hitop	Hitop
People	2	2	2
Nr. of Days	22	22	22
Excess	0	220	0
Insurance Fee per Day	20	25	42
Price per Day	53	52.25	73
One way Fee	520	350	0
Additional Cost	0	100	52
Total Price	2126	2149	2704

Not in the comparisment is wicked camper. Some friends made a bad experience with wicked campers. “The cars are old and they don’t care about you”. Also there are not friendly to animals. Wicked looks cheap but they rip you off with additional fees. Wicked camper is not recommended. There are so many better options !
Also other post on the internet write about bad experience with wicked campers.

So back to the better camper van rental companies.

The winner is:

no-worries.com.au is the best option for two people and Australian campervans if you need a camper for more than 2 people. Britz has also nice cars, but insurance is expensive.
