Among Norwegians, the day is referred to simply as syttende mai (meaning May Seventeenth), Nasjonaldagen (The National Day) or Grunnlovsdagen (The Constitution Day). -Wikipedia

In Seattle there will be a celebration in Ballard. The 17th May Celebration in Seattle includes a Parade, Kid’s Games, Norwegian Fjord Horses, Lunch, Dinner, and more.

Bring the kids and have a fun day!

Update: Some more good reading on 17th of May – Norwegian Constition Day and 17th of May – Norway’s National Day in Oslo via RennyBA’s Terella.

  • Application Link: allows administrators to dynamically link Thinstall packages to one another, making it possible to create separate packages for interdependent components (such as Java or .NET) and use them across multiple Thinstall packages.

  • Application Sync: allows customers to execute updates to virtual applications through a secure Internet connection, increasing application portability while reducing security and patch risks to offline and out-of-network machines.

Is application virtualization going to replace the current method of deploying and managing apps in the enterprise?  I wonder where Apple will find itself in this new paradigm…

The weekend is here so time for some more night photography. Still learning to use my new Canon 450D XSi and learning the ins-n-outs of long exposure DSLR photography. Now, where to?

Went for a hike on Saturday and had a great time.  The trail wasn’t much different than hiking at Pulgas Ridge or Edgewood but of course the flora was a bit different.  Also there’s a beautiful waterfall which we stopped at and had lunch.  We took quite a while for such a short hike but it was fun and pizza afterward made for a nice day.
