Amburon
4/5. A new blonde beer from Tongeren with grassy flavours and a nice amount of bitterness.

Don’t Look Now
Has much in common with European cinema. Beautiful images and heavy symbolism but rather cold at its core.

The symbol of European unity marks its first decade.

Mean Streets
A sparklingly childish De Niro and some very mature directing.

The Yellow Cross
After they scattered into the Pyrenees, the Cathars were hard to trace. So was the thread of this book.

Who you gonna call?
Hello you, I'm Mike Padgett. I'm not a Princeton curator, Knoxville mayoral candidate, Kentuckian pastor or Arizona journalist, I just share the same name. In fact, I am a consultant working in user experience and information design.
I also enjoy travel, concerts, films and walking.
I'm originally from Yorkshire, England but nowadays I live in Belgium. My current favourite Belgian beer is Black Albert.
Shameless self-promotion
Over a year in the making, Dopeology.org is my latest personal project: a topology of doping in thirty years of European pro road cycling.
I collected information from thousands of sources, then I modelled and published it via a lightweight user interface.
