We recently upgraded our newsletter script so we can send now in HTML. This is nothing radical and we wont, as far as i can see, do anything else with it other then insert links, but nevertheless a nice new touch i believe. We "tested" this new functionallity today on our newest promotion we just sent out, so check your mail [if you have subscribed] (or the front page or the Trajan Forum) for more details...
This is so much harder than i thought, almost a week since my last weight post and i only lost 0.1 kilograms = 0.220462262 pounds, I am not eating particulary much, neither unhealthy, in fact, i eat mostly vegetables and fruits and some meat, the only hope i have is that my muscle building is just as fast than my fat loss, (although i dont really see that in the mirror), i do however feel much more energized.
I finally got my first MP3 player (Ipod Shuffle which is ideal as its extremely s
My grandma (85 years old) was invited to have dinner with my mother, so we go there in the late afternoon to pick her up. She was almost ready, just need to brush her hair, get dressed and off we go downstairs to the car...
Well she slipped at the last staircase and bang there she was lying on the floor not able to move. We tried to get her up but to no avail. So we call the ambulance, they arrive pretty soon afterwards, moved her to the hospital and there they made x-rays examinations etc..
You must know, in Austria, sport Nr.1 is alpine skiing. We are crazy about it. During winter season there is only one thing that will gather half of the population in front of the TV ---> a downhill race!
Now our downhillers are our true superstars, and one in particular is Hermann Maier. I was looking on Google Video if there was something about him, and indeed i found the IOC promo with his monster crash in Nagano 1998. If you look at it, one is happy he survived, but as the video says,
Now that we have our first subforum, i would like to know what other topics could we make into a subfora? Keep in mind that it should be related to the parent forum and of course the main forum should be busy enough to support a split into a more specific niche...

I just read this article Red Bull wings its way past diet sodas
It doesnt happen often that an austrian company is known in the USA or worldwide, one example would be PEZ, yeah you heard right, thats from Austria
Now i guess everyone knows RedBull, but did you know it is from Austria? Headquarter is in Salzburg, about an hours drive from my home town.

I just watched today europe`s biggest TV Show Wetten, dass..? (which would translate into something like Wanna Bet..?). This show is one of the few i really like to watch on a regular base (its usually about 6 times a year), it has the

I am doing great, much better then expected and at a much faster rate. (Just got an 20% increase)!!!
I decided that I need some extra Karma , and joined the World Vision Sponsorship, thats 30 Euro a month to support a child in need! This is such a wonderful organization and if you read up on how much my (your) 30 Euro per month can change a whole families life, it makes one really humble. I could choose the gender (I have choosen a girl) the age (below 7 years) and the country (mozambique).

You know this community is amazing, the latest giveaway Ancient Warfare Magazine Special has already over 200 entries, (so drop quickly a line that you are interested if you haven`t yet), the amazing thing though is how many people are actually dropping a little line, "how they like the site, how they appreciate the community, how they look forward to all the freebies, the book reviews etc... but most of all, that many want to give back, they tell me almost apologetic that they dont have the cap

I recently discovered some old stuff from my grandpa (who passed away about 10 years ago) in the attic. It is mostly photographs, postcards and war related documents from 1932 to 1948. I thought i share some images i scanned today over the next few weeks in my personal series "WWII Memories".
The first image i scanned today is actually rather unspectacular. A simple postcard from end of January 1944. From someone unknown to me (Dr.med. Elisabeth Obladen) to my grandma. It is stamped in Stutt
OMG, I am a prophet! As you can see on my previous post before the world cup, i did predict that New Zealand will loose against the french and that South Africa is going to be the next World Champion, (thats what happend) you may say Nostradamus to me!
What a defensive master piece of the Springboks, and what a disaster from the english site to try (first half) to make that a kicking game, when the whole world knows the line out is Springbok-Territory!

The Vienna Life Ball, Europe's most colourful charity event will take place again tomorrow. This is the craziest, sexiest, strangest ball you will ever see. It started as an AIDS Charity Event, and exploded into a fashion extravaganza that you dont see on the catwalks of Paris, Milan or New York. Unlike the Vienna Opera Ball who is the most glamarous event in Europe, the Life ball is the most colorful one. There is a huge catwalk for the first part of the event, were outside of the Vienna city h

The cover story is about the 2000 year celebration for Carnuntum.
Exatly 2000 years ago, Carnuntum was founded by Tiberius, and just a few years later it became one of the biggest cities of the Roman Empire. The austrian television is in the process of making a documentary of Carnuntum. They invited reenactors from all over Europe to participate in this film. The same people who make this had made in the past the award winning documentary of Oetzi the Iceman, so i am sure this will be fantas
