This is beautiful, but the idea of actually living is a bit depressing. BUT i would love to go there one day, just to get the feel for it.

Found this by accident, what a funny tv series. very ironic. its about an unusal vicar in London, he smokes, he swears, he is a bit clumsy and constantly under attack from his superiors, charming and fun

WHAT A GREAT GREAT TV SERIES ! At first I thought just another teen/sports series, but BOY was I wrong. The cast is fantastic, Kyle Chandler and Conny Britton with an amazing chemistry. I think one of the most underrated tv series of the past 10 years. honest, heartfelt, sad, deep stories, all the actors do a wonderful job. and hey, cannot go wrong with Kyle Chandler

I tv series that only ran for 1 1/2 seasons, what a pitty. The writers strike killed this tv series. it shows the dark side of the showbiz trough the eys of tabloid/gossip magazine. its a good series, the darker version of entourage, in a way. cannot really compare those two, but still...

Another Bryan Fuller tv series that has it all. its dark but funny, lots quirky characters, nice stories and it keeps you thinking. Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies and Dead like me, 3 excellent tv series

What can I say, a masterpiece. I dont agree with all her philosophies, but her writing is so powerful, I simply cannot withstand it.
after I read this book, I was so blown away, that it took me a few months, since any other book I tried to read wasnt as good as this one.

Its a short film about how we make stuff. We are all in the same boat, the companies that produce, the consumers that buy and use and the companies that recycle our stuff at the end.
It shows the absurd way of how we consume.

I like the writing of Matt Ruff. His stories are funny and strange.
This one is set in the year 2026, but isnt really just Scifi nor satire. He references Ayn Rand, and takes on Catholicism, feminism, ethnicism, ecology, political correctness (he calls it P.U. -- "philosophically untenable")
If you like Kurt Vonnegut, Jonathan Swift and are willing to take a joke, you might like this one as well

The place has a crazy decoration, chinese restaurant meets rock club meats haunted house. Its a restaurant/bar & a club with live music, with the most unusal indiebands. If you are into fastfood, this is your place to be. Meat and vegetables are organic & from the region. The burgers and fries are legendary. The staff comes from allover the world so english is no problem. need to reserve a table

Its originally from my hometown Frankfurt/Main. It was Goethe´s favourite dish, the original version has 7 herbs (borage, chervil, cress, parsley, burnet, sorrel and chives) plus a bit of garlic, and some mustard in it.
You eat it with salted boiled potatoes, its delicious and very light, if its done with yoghurt, NOT with creme or mayonese, DONT ! yoghurt is the way to go.
Try it !

A french film a friend of mine recommended to me.
What a great find.
A very dark love story, thats bittersweet, but never tacky or cliche, far from it. I
Its love in its purest form with ALL the consequences possible and I mean this in the most drastic way possible, all to the end...
Dont know if there is an english version of it, I watched it in french with english subtitles.
Wonderful film !

What a beautiful movie ! Its artistic, its romantic, its sad, its colourful, its a great work of art !
I have never seen anything like it, its a cinema masterpiece...
Lee Pace´s acting is strong, but besides the wonderful costumes, designs and decorations, the real star is the little girl, Catinca Untaru, WOW, what a performance.

I just really like their raunchy designs and their choices of colour. its a germany based leather manufacturer based in Düsseldorf. nothing for vegans I am afraid.
