“Die Wölfe” - ZDF Dreiteiler

Soeben den ersten Teil des ZDF-Dreiteilers “Die Wölfe” gesehen und total begeistert. Wer es verpasst hat, kann sowohl den gesamten ersten Teil auf der zdf-Website anschauen, als auch eine Kurzversion von ca. 10 Minuten. Ich freue mich jedenfalls schon auf Teil 2 und 3!
“Nicht einmal die Mauer kann sie trennen” von Jochen Hieber, faz, 29. [...]

“Don`t mess with the Zohan”

If you are looking for intellectual entertainment – this is not the right movie. If you just wanna have fun, it is. At least I had a lot of fun watching “Don`t mess with the Zohan” last weekend.
The comedy is about:
The Zohan (Adam Sandler), the finest counterterrorist agent the Israeli army has. That is, [...]

Des Teufels Werkstatt - The Devil’s Workshop

I have just watched “The Counterfeiters” on German TV. Here is a short summary I found on dw-world (”Film on Nazi Counterfeiting Operation Wins Oscar” by Tamsin Walker, dw, Feb 25, 2008):
(…) “The Counterfeiters,” sheds light on a little-known chapter of Nazi history. It tells the spectacular tale of the largest forgery operation of [...]

“Wer sie angreift, greift uns alle an.”

Ausschnitte aus der “Rede von Bundespräsident Köhler zum Tag des Gedenkens an die Opfer des Nationalsozialismus”, 27.01.2009, Berlin:

Happy New Year 2009!

Happy New Year to everybody and may all your New Year`s Resolutions come true. I have one, too:
Always look on the bright side of life!

Do you have one, too?
I kept mine so far. One example: Usually I do not really like the cold that much. But 2009 started with -20 degrees and Russia temporarily cut [...]

Pünktlich zum Amtsantritt Obamas hat jetzt auch Hit Radio FFH eine Obama Comedy, die sich “Ein neuer Tag im Schwarzen Haus” nennt:
Wenn die Welt schläft, ist einer immer wach - der Retter Amerikas, der Welt und des Universums hat schon vor dem Frühstück den Meeresspiegel gesenkt und die Regenwälder aufgeforstet. Erleben sie Barack Obama ganz [...]

Free and not so free media

Germany is a democracy, yes. The Press is free. And still there is not much reporting about the anti-Semitic marches that took place here in recent weeks.
In other parts of the world, the media is not free, and still there are journalists who report even if their lives are being threatened. One recent example [...]

German Media Silence

Germany is a democracy with a free Press. So why does the Press remain (almost) silent when it comes to reporting what is going on in Germany these days?
Don`t get me wrong I am not saying that the media does not report at all, but given the events you would expect much much wider media [...]

Most of all, I hope he will be as successful as his predecessor in keeping America and the American people safe.
God bless America!
