Another collaboration with my then partner-in-crime, Peter Heydenreich, illustrator extraordinaire; this CD single was put out by a couple of Danish stand-up comedians as a follow-up to their smash hit with a TV show. We produced both a commercially available version of the disk as well as promo edition (on the right) that was sent…

– frit efter et oplæg fra ordensmagten Søndag. Der skete bare ikke en skid sådan en søndag lige før nytår. Den slidte, velfærdsramte storby skuttede sig i finregnen. Om et kvarters tid ville det gamle rådhusur ovre i tårnet bimle tolv, og den hyggelige lille nation kunne så tage hul på den næstsidste dag i…

I have a degree in business administration and marketing, and a background as a photo journalist, editor, and graphic…

A client of mine needed an entire website set up to run in English and Vietnamese (a fascinating language to see written — accents and squiggles everywhere, it’s really quite incredible, but a monumental pain in the neck to work with online). Joomfish of course is made for that sort of stuff, and works great.…

Damn, that was painful. Never, ever run a half-marathon in 100 degree weather with 100 percent humidity thrown in for good measure. It’s lethal. Having said that, I guess I felt “less bad” than many of the 700 other people who ran the 2nd ChAD Outrun The Sun half-marathon in Hanover, New Hampshire. Maybe it…

So, I’m trying to off-load a bunch of shots from my Canon EOS 30D, but all I have with me is my laptop, and it doesn’t have the Canon software installed, so I can’t transfer RAW format images. “Well,” I figure, “I’ll just go to Canon’s site and download the software.” But in their infinite…

This was sent to the editor of my local paper, the Valley News: To the Editor, Your headline on 7/24 ("Soda May Affect Health") highlighted the already substantial and growing evidence linking soft drinks with obesity, diabetes and other health risks, particularly for kids. The problem is very real, and it has therefore been disappointing…
