March 27th I had this problem that whenever I submitted an app to the app store with the App Loader or Xcode, that would pass verification mind you, I got an error: "com.apple.transporter.util.StreamUtil.readBytes(Ljava/io/InputStream;)[B" I wrote Apple to tell them about it, but I got an error due to a disk being full, so I figured nobody's perfect, it's probably a disk-full error, and tried the next day. The 28th, no luck either. Wrote them a mail. Didn't hear from them by the 31st, so wrote another mail. But by now, results had began to come up on my radar via Google, so I thought I'd share what I found.

With Xcode 4 it seems many people are having this problem. The advice I found first was to downgrade to Xcode 3.x or Application ...

I'm a big fan of Willemoes which is Coop's brand by Bryggeriet Vestfyen, so when they had an offer too choose three for a reasonable price, I got two of Willemoes Påske Ale and a Påskebryg that will be reviewed another day.

Willemoes is funny as it's called after Peter Willemoes, a Danish naval hero who captured ...

While many of the other easter ales actually could be great christmas beers as well, the Hornbeer Påskeøl is all flowers and "yellow" in taste, a very fine easter ale. It is a bit darker than a classic, cloudy with a nice white foam. The first taste is of spice and flowers, but not heavy at all. Very fitting for spring and easter.

This beer works probably best with food. I was drinking it slowly, and while it's getting warmer it looses its gas fairly quickly, so while this is no problem with many easter ales, ...

I've stopped doing april fools pranks, hoaxes and jokes, since unfortunately my jokes had a tendency to become true. "Dude, we've got a tax-misunderstanding" led to half a year of explaining why nothing was wrong. "DHL wants us to pay a strange import fee" wasn't fun when DHL called three days later. I talked to your boss and hear Microsoft has bought your company... a couple of days later... you get the picture.

But, that doesn't stop me enjoying aprils fools day, my favourite came early with the EU requiring online retailers to refund their customers before getting the merchandise back. Let's have a look at great april fools jokes and pranks:

  • In 1957 a show called Panorama announced that a mild winter had increased the Swiss spaghetti harvest (see YouTube)

Next up is an ecological beer from Ørbæk.

The first thought was that this beer aspires to be a trapist, yet isn't as rich in the flavour. It has a pleasant darkness (I prefer dark beer), is well balanced, nice foam and it goes well with cheese (we tried that) and chocolate. It could have a bit more notes of flower and spice, it's easter ale after all, but I get the impression this is a beer I wouldn't mind serving guests all year around, perhaps except for christmas.

On a minus note, it has a faint metallic smell, but apart from that, this is a beer I can fully recommend, ...
