Nitpick in case anybody speaks the languages in question:
.se is the domain for Sweden, so the site's actually in Swedish.
It doesn't say all that much; just a blurb about his having set the record for most money won and days won (beating Tom Walsh's record), and mentioning (I think) that he's won 11 days. (The article is obviously from a few days ago!)

I knew that because it said Ken was up to only $376,000+, or 2.9 million kroner. Hmm, I guess Sweden hasn't switched to the euro yet.

The exchange rate today in Ken Jennings terms now = nearly 4 million kroner. Wow!
