I am now no longer as excited about my birthday with my children in anticipation of her birthday. But not until 12 and are 8 years old. Yesterday, at least it was once again so far. It was my day, not a round thing but a minor "Between birthday," because at least I'm over 50 Whatever the case, it was the usual question: With or without guests? In recent years we have had "substantial" or "Small" is celebrated, sometimes with a 45 guests each time with a couple. Since my wife straight in one of her "projects" plugged in and has little time, we only want Pauline and Scott invite , our neighbor couple, which we really like Moreover Scott its stand-alone, once again disappointed by the female sex, brother bring. We opt for "ocean". This is a kind of table-barbecue, a hot stone plate in a frame. Under the Stone fire fed by a 2-burner liquid fuel. The fun for everyone, especially the children, it is action and it is busy. This thing emits intense heat that heats the thirst and lifts the mood. Also, keep the preparation time is limited and there is cleaned up pretty quickly. So what you do not even in the good room, the dining room, but it remains on solid kitchen table that plugs into its rustic meal. Since the Kan a commanding and meat-eating plants are exactly the right thing. Everyone eats a little more than is good for them to waver for all totally "stuffed" back to their homes. The saying "fill from the guests, then all go home happy" so what has for itself.

Since we always are hungry for Canadian invitations home, we buy pork , beef and chicken for 1 0 people, although we are really only 5 adults. I'm trying for many years to change my environment through exemplary behavior, unfortunately, my success is zero. Specifically, because we are the guests "decent" bottle, it does not , the s we should soon expect more than fennel dip. But now let us try once in a fair description of the process such a typical event, he:

We were invited to 5 clock (Canadian Dinner Time), the score 20 minutes later. Power is nothing, finally roasted the meat j a of the guests themselves. After the usual celebrity kisses , are indeed now become so common, that is implied kiss right and left, is my birthday present (or was it vice versa?) A card in the envelope. "Happy Birthday" is pre-printed, but Pauline and Scott still have topsy written Pauline and Scott . I am delighted and I thank you profusely.

My subtle question whether someone might want a glass of sherry as an aperitif is refused with thanks, for all are awfully hungry. It's Dinner Time. We are hungry, we finally have our lunch in anticipation of today, for us late, eating pinched. So we put all the same going down and the steaks and chicken parts on the hot stones. Because the B course takes something special rates when it is "well done", that would well done, all begin to eat ever their potatoes and the vegetables. Also on the drinks you then hurl. My tentative attempt a common starting to match the occasion and after E ntfalten the cloth napkins how to achieve fails the very beginning. Meanwhile, fry the steaks and be turned off and on. Our discussions are about the weather, but probably at the weekend if the snow comes, finally, we are in April, and the question why my car so often has a flat tire. After we determine together that on the weather news is not trust and the roads are bad, blame for everything, and therefore guilty of my plates , we have the first pieces of meat to the already half learned plates. Now at last I come, because all their mouth have , to a toast to install. So I raise my glass, say something nice to thank our guests and they have accepted the invitation, I like my wife, for her love and understanding in the last year, as in many years before, and also remember not to mention that my kids make me much joy and so contribute to my happiness. Then we come to you all and continue eating. Now that we're still negotiating terms of the children of our guests and neighbors have been worked up, I try to steer the conversation on local policy. High politics, social designs or the development of theoretical educational alternatives to the existing forms of education in primary schools but our children are not particularly in demand. Even criticism of the obliteration of the main street of our village or the lack of vision the authorities of our city are not pursued. After I try a detour towards the environment and personal behavior, and Consider the conversation on literature or music directing, I adapt myself to finally and follow the conversation initiated by the women end , which is now at the newly opened Clay Cafe (Cafe sound) rotates, a painting studio where you can paint clay figures and common objects. The matters are fired there too and it is, by far, the best attraction in our town. I hope, like our guests to a success. For that reason alone because the 23 year old Daughter of our guests, the young owner, and I wholeheartedly admire their courage. I also sincerely hope that the store makes more than a year, but secretly I still doubt that I have seen no new foundation survive for long. What do I do I will. I promised the children who are thrilled to grasp once a month in your pocket and buy an afternoon at the Clay Cafe.

now all finished, and we clear up the dirty dishes and cover on the coffee things. My wife baked me a cake and which is now also, although actually have all are managed, stows away with pleasure. To me it tastes special and I am grateful and thankful that my wife, who has since also a Canadian citizen, is not as kanadisiert that she baked me a carrot cake or a Pumpkin pie has .

Inside I'm preparing now to ask before the friends to go into the living room to the gluttony and the dirty dishes to get out of sight. Moreover one in the living room can comfortably , in a chair with a glass of wine pass, to a good conversation. Does not know too demanding to be only just so, the s I have the feeling to be able to chat on my birthday something. Not because ss could I run with my wife the issues, but now and then a different voice, with other perspectives can not bad, but rather be stimulating.

But my plans do not work. Our guests want to thank the friendly and strive to the Wardrobe. It is by now already very late, about 8 clock and one should perhaps rather go to bed ... Well in any event is 5 minutes later our doorstep and we are alone. My wife sees my face: "What did you expect?" she asks, with a slightly angry tone in his voice. And I know she is angry with me, not about the score because I have still not learned me ääh to adjust my expectations enough. So I fall silent, tell me to clean up the kitchen and think. Think of an appropriate "party" for example, in Moscow. As might have been celebrated, I celebrated my really eaten and drunk, clearly very drunk. And laughed and laughed, tears laughed. And discussed. And in the morning, I mean around 3 or 4 Clock in the morning we would have fallen off the table, as we are - right into bed. And the next morning I had a thick bulb had and back pain. Sure. And exhorted the children to rest. All right. But I would have had the feeling I had lived. So really lived if you understand what I mean. And talked for a long time from the birthday party and thought for some time to them too.

In July, Then the brother of Scott's birthday. I expected no return invitation. No I did not have. But maybe he would, Curtis, as single words. ". Come, let us sit together for a beer" When I meet him he says: "I have birthday today. I'm going to Linda has the birthday in 2 days. But she has now invited to the barbecue ...." Yes, he can eat for free on his birthday and Linda has also ticked off their equal. How convenient.

Well, you can not have it all. I look forward. I wait for our next get-together with our friends. In Moscow, you are now perhaps supplement. Yes it also. But this is much closer to the family B ush right around the corner. Fischer is the third generation. Real friends. And you will not believe. It is like in Moscow. Almost. No booze , only "social drinking", and not to 3 clock in the morning, but to 12, but all and e re comes close. We laugh sometimes and yet has a nice sense of celebration. To which people actually like to think back . Or we come together with our friends and Sepideh Hadi. They're from Tehran and also think that there something, well, we say the least, is back. But we can talk cultured cook and eat together and do something together. Or Ken and Heather, our neighbors from the next street. They may have less time because they work like crazy, no wonder Ken is independent (that alone speaks for it already), but they are very open-minded and totally. An evening with the two is an absolute winner. And - it is in CANADA.

Well, there goes that. Who had thought just so that I now see everything negative, the insured is here: I also see the beautiful Sides and the positive. Only - that of course you can read anywhere. You know from the preface. There are beautiful picture books are everywhere. Only it can write them. So cheers and ..... so I'm anxious when I celebrate my next birthday. If I celebrate at all. Because really excited to see, I'm not. But that is because I do not like getting older.

And for that, the Canadians really nothing.

Berlin quotes

Seminar on the Geography and Literature: Berlin's views. Berlin in the eye of the beholder. Voices from seven centuries.

Berlin smelt within 9 kilometers.
Carl von Linné (1707-1778)

It speaks so much of the Berliners, and their character. That is probably nothing more than the residents of Berlin. Because the real Berlin to find economical, and this city is more partly filled with foreign nationals who pose a colorful mixture.
Anton Balthasar König (1753-1814)

Berlin is a good city - excellent music, cheap lives, very decent theater, in the Bakeries many newspapers, and I read them all in turn - in short, all good, very good. - The Germans are terrible Philistine. Would be the tenth part of their rich spiritual consciousness passed into life, it would be wonderful people, yet they are, alas! A most ridiculous people! On a [inscription] is the Prussian eagle and painted him ironing Schneider, under the Schneider: Under your wings I can iron calm.
Mikhail Bakunin (1814-1876)

The Berlin is rough, quarrelsome, without sentimentality, vanity, exclusive. With Berlin and the way to Berlin all exhausted, and he does not have a scale as this. He not only knows everything, but he knows everything better, everything else is bad.
Heinrich Laube (1806-1884)

Berlin is a botanical garden, all minds are cultivated here in Germany, though not always naturally, without artifice, but in pots, with heating. Anything and everything is here dissected, bottled, preserved in alcohol.
Gustav Kühne (1806-1888)

The terrain's speculation began. Unquestionably, the calculated one, would urge the province to the capital and now this supposed huge growth requires thousands of new houses with ten or twenty thousand apartments. The building mania, this insane building mania was over Berlin. (...) It was straight on "established", which would keep the stuff. Banks with limbers buildings, mortgage banks and products, railroads and wallpaper, spinning mills and leather, petroleum and corrugated iron, steam brickworks and shipyards, construction companies, housing associations and real estate: everything not nailed- and was nailed down, "was founded." And all, all they flew into the light, and all danced in this Hetzgaloppade to the beloved golden calf, the shrewd capitalist and the inexperienced young people, the General and the waiter who the lady of the world, the poor piano teacher and the market woman there was speculation in the ticket windows and in the theater dressing rooms, in the artist's studio and home in the quiet of a scholar ...
Felix Philippi (1851-1921)

At Wannsee, I experienced a great surprise. (...) What a sight! (...) Splinter naked children, men, adolescent boys, the bigger only in swimming trunks or prebound handkerchief, women in corsets or corset and leg protectors Small - all hung around there, dived into the water and came dripping back out. A man in swimming trunks, a round hat on his head, smoking his pipe in the bath, another had kept his shirt and vest! (...) Of the at least two to three thousand people who come together here, hardly anybody to watch the other undress. No suspicious glance, no ambiguous smile, not a smile! I call that true shame! The honesty is already here, so to speak in view! I was just speechless! ... Here I was among hundreds of half naked ... on Berlin's such a beautiful summer days call the pines with their red shimmering slender trunks, climbing down to close to the lake, memories of Greek shore, an island of the blessed, where Daughters of the Hellenes during bathing fun. But it would be cruel to continue to paint the picture ... the anatomy of these working people of both sexes, a comparison with the beautiful Greek slave, and the lovely female swimmers of Greece would not stand up ...
Jules Huret (1863-1915)

Messrs. Berlin speculate with me as with a winning hen. But I do not know if I can still lay eggs.
Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

This city seems to have no soul. Maybe because I know their shape from the outside.
Halide Edip Adivar (1884-1964)

Berlin is the brain, the emotions and intuitions, desires and resentments of the German people be formulated with scientific precision and journalistic verve. The metropolis is not created: it represents. When the Berlin of the imperial period, the aggressive dynamism of the young German nationalism saber-rattling had shown to the public, so mirrored the Berlin of the early postwar years with the same scandal, the apocalyptic mood of the defeated nation.
Klaus Mann (1906-1949)

On the way to Antwerp, I passed through Hitler's Germany, where I spent a few months. I had come on foot from Breslau to Berlin. I would like to steal. A remarkable spell of me would stop. Germany inspired a Europe whole horror, it was mainly in my view, is the embodiment of cruelty. Already it was launched. Even the Linden I had the feeling to walk through a scale of bandit camp. I believed that the brain of the most conscientious citizen Berlin hide pounds of hypocrisy, hatred, malice, cruelty, greed. It dug me to be free in the middle of an outlawed people. Sure, I also stole there, as elsewhere, but I felt it a kind of embarrassment - because the attitude that dominated this action was brought here to civic virtue - an entire nation was familiar with it and pointed it towards the others. "This is a nation of thieves", I felt. If I stole this, I do nothing special, so I could distinguish myself: I obey only the general order. I destroy they do not. I do not disturb. The scandal is impossible. I fly into space. It seemed that the gods who watch over the laws, not outraged, just surprised were. I was ashamed. More importantly, I wanted to return to a country where the laws of common morality, founded on the life, are the subject of a cult. In Berlin, I chose to live, prostitution. It satisfied me a few days, then bored me.
Jean Genet (1910-1986)

past model camp for Northern Europe, now a model of Rubble, destroyed Carthage and the dwindling giant cities in the jungles of Saigon. Geology of the people, history, powers! Of hanging gardens and lions gates of gray border town, attracted by the Eastern and the Western Caravan. Dust storms in summer, head-high nettles on the sidewalks, and where once drove the sleek Transportation mowing, at night she secretly hidden in the grass for the animals kept rooms. One million man-like creatures still in the wreckage, but all without work, behind boarded windows, rats in the arcades. A community! Now in the winter evenings sometimes I walked through the snow carefully in the middle of the roads from frost and winds most of the ruins. (...) It is still winter and all hopeless. The magistrates hide themselves behind the allied dese, behind the elements, these behind the highlands of Tibet, the Dalai Lama after the uswu we go to the dogs.
Gottfried Benn (1886-1956)

The consideration of the Berlin Wall, from another point of view, which alone takes into account the proportion of this building would be surely welcome. Immediately defused the wall. By inner laughter. Destroy the wall. It is not depend more on the physical wall. It is executed attention to the mental wall, and overcome, that's what matters most. (...) Spontaneously emerging question: What being member in me or other people create this thing? How much each of us has contributed to the potency of this wall and contributes further. Every man is interested enough in the disappearance of this wall? What antiegoistische, anti-materialist, what reality according to mental training, a young man to overcome this ever? Bottom line: the wall is not important as such. Do not talk so much of the wall! Explain disappear through self-education better morale in the human race and all the walls.
Joseph Beuys (1921-1986)

I've written songs in all Western capitals and every time I reached the point where it was between me and the city no more friction. The case was nostalgic, vaguely decadent and collapsed on to the next town. Right now I am unable, in Los Angeles, New York or London or Paris to compose. Something is missing. Berlin has the strange ability to bring a to write only the important things - everything else mentioned it does not, it still remains, writes nothing.
Integrated David Bowie (1947)

in Berlin has none. Berlin is and never was a melting pot for anything. Who lives in Berlin, meets just that there are the others. (...) His return to earth one is surprised once again that will be in Berlin still each an expert in everything. But in Berlin the other, are also statements as meaningless as nowhere else suffocate the Berlin universities in their self-administration and bring forth yet modern academic models, in Berlin there is crippling subsidy mentality and yet it attracts those who are innovative . Berlin makes verbal opposition to his wall and at the same time criticized those who were doing something about it or do, it makes its pubs open throughout the night and complains about the noise. It is complaining about the noise of the aircraft and criticized, however, that gave Tempelhof to Tegel. On Berlin's lakes yachts bob up and down that are good for the oceans, its ice sailors race across the frozen Havel, as would be Mazury, and the Husky Club confuse the location of the city with the other side of the Arctic Circle. The Berlin crowd is elitist, even though it does not exist.
Reinhard Furrer (1940-1995)

Paris is always Paris and Berlin is never Berlin!
Jack Lang (1939)

Berlin is an island without gull.
Gültekin Emre (1951)

Happy Easter!

Easter just around the corner and not only our children but many adults are already very eager to paint Easter eggs and Easter baskets to tinker. In Germany, Easter is traditionally celebrated with hidden Easter eggs, Easter bunnies, a Osterzopf, some places, the Easter fire and decorated Easter gardens - and it is next Pentecost and Christmas, the most important festival in the church year. Here you can find information about it.

The Easter Bunny

The rabbit is the animal of the love goddess Aphrodite, and the Germanic Earth Goddess Holda. He is not only a messenger of the gods, he is also - as the egg - a sign of life and fertility.

rabbits get very many boys in the spring, that is, they give life. Did people used the rabbit mothers with their young, they knew that winter was over.

In Byzantium was the bunny in animal imagery as a symbol of Christ.

Everyone knows him as the bearer of Easter eggs, according to which children search for the cheerfulness of the adults so eager. But not always the Easter Bunny hid the eggs. Only in the last century of the egg-laying bunny was totally unknown in some parts of Germany.

By 16 Century brought the Easter eggs of various animals. In some regions, came the fox and the cock, in others the stork, cuckoo, the crane or the grouse, to hide the Easter eggs.

The first evidence for the Easter bunny come from the year 1678 by Georg Franck, Franckenau, a medical professor from Heidelberg.

Why does the Easter Bunny the Easter eggs?

The rabbit comes in the spring also increased in search for food in the villages and gardens. And because of his behavior to be in the vicinity of people, he was probably sitting the eggs be sealed.

From old records from Zurich, the Easter Bunny is a bearer of the eggs produced as follows:

It is the sponsor of the custom was to invite children to hunt with them the Easter Bunny, that is, the hidden eggs in the garden looking for. The colorful eggs were thereby attributed to the Easter Bunny because he was much faster than the hens, and could not put this colorful eggs. This custom is thus more representative of the emergency declaration of adults towards children assign, as the Easter Bunny was more credible than the bearer of the eggs than the hens.

Thus came together probably in the course of time the Easter bunny and Easter eggs. Today, he brings in his Kiepe the colorfully painted eggs and sweets.

There is also speculation, the Easter Bunny was more by accident of Osterbote become. The attempt of the bakery, an Easter lamb made of dough to bake, have finally looked more like a bunny ...

It is also narrated that the Holy Thursday was a deadline for payment and interest rate debt. The creditor often pays with eggs and hares. Another Überliferung states that the debtor for payment of his debts is a free man who has been compared to a rabbit that is not chased by a dog is.

The Easter

Easter is the oldest and next Pentecost, it is the most important festival of Christendom. Its roots lie in the Jewish Passover (Passover) festival. The German word "Easter" derives from the Indo-European word for "dawn" from. The Easter season begins with the Os-terminal ends tomorrow and 50 days later with Pentecost.

until 3 Century, Easter was celebrated as a holiday, in 3rd Century, then the week before Holy Week, as preparation reitungszeit- for Lent, in the 4th Century introduced the "three holy days" of Holy Thursday evening to Easter Sunday morning as the climax of the liturgical year.

The 1 Council of Nicaea determined that Easter Sunday on the first Sunday after the first Full Moon is celebrated after the equinox. It follows that the Easter Sunday after the current Gregorian calendar in the West earlier than 22 March latest, on 25-possible April is taking place. The Orthodox churches calculate Easter under the Julian calendar (=> Calendar Resources), the Gregorian against our back now lags by 13 days. According to the Orthodox Easter tradition may also not be celebrated before or together with the Jewish Passover. Therefore, Orthodox and Western churches celebrate Easter on different Sundays, usually.

is a traditional Orthodox and Catholic churches, increasingly, in Protestant, celebrated the Easter Vigil . The liturgy of the Easter Vigil is traditionally divided into four parts: The

light celebration, in addition to the "Hallelujah" ring of light as the most important component. Most participants will receive the service already at the church entrance a candle is then lit from the "Easter Candle". Occasionally, even a real "Easter" kindled. Such fires have already been practiced in pagan times: you tried to fire this spring, the sun magically pull on the earth. The first Christian Easter, it was around 750 in France, since 11 Century, they are common in Germany. Even flames wheels let you roll down hills. Today, the Easter candle is central to the Easter Vigil. The first mention of an Easter candle 384 in Piacenca in a letter from Jerome. Not later than 417 used They Pope Zosimus in Rome. In the 10th Century, established the paschal candle and they burn throughout the Easter period until Pentecost. Thereafter, the candle placed next to the baptismal font and burns at baptisms.

baptism or Tauferneuerung : The 4th Century, the Easter Vigil, the great Taufnacht the church, was built by the connection of Easter and baptism. In the Catholic church, the priest consecrates the water of baptism on Easter night for the whole year. The believers take the holy water home with them, these should be at home as well as protect their homes from disaster.

The Eucharist: Eucharist - from Greek ευχαριστειν, "you say - makes present the salvific death of Jesus Christ. The Roman Catholic, the Orthodox and the Anglican Church the celebration of the meal after first call Cor 11, 24 Eucharist, the Protestant churches speak of "Last Supper" after Mark 14, 17 and 1 Corinthians 11, 23 - (Supper) as a celebration of certainty the presence of the Risen Christ.

A partial indulgence is granted to that creditor-lived, of his Taufver-law-chen after a designated formula renewed; this happens during the celebration of the anniversary of the baptism Qsternacht or so, a plenary indulgence can be obtained.

The lamb - or a young goat - is a symbol of vulnerability to wild animals, the surgeons, and the butcher, it is the classic animal sacrifice in the Old Testament. Even Jesus Christ is called the Lamb, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world" (Gospel of John 1, 29). In Christian antiquity put one lamb at the altar. It was consecrated and consumed at the resurrection as the first meal. In the 12th

Century were first ordained proven eggs. Eggs have always been considered a symbol of fertility and in the Middle Ages they were important as currency. They were the symbol of the resurrection of Christ, because his resurrection from the grave hatching of the chicks was compared from the shell. Besides eggs soon, ham, milk products and bread were brought to the consecration. They wanted to end the long fasting period with the consumption of consecrated food worthy. In the 13th

First century painted Easter eggs be mentioned. After the fasting rules of the consumption of eggs was forbidden during Holy Week, the hens laid still, the eggs were stored, on Easter morning was then of egg consumption is particularly high. It was decided to collect this "Holy Week eggs" to paint and leave to dedicate to distinguish them from ordinary eggs. A coloring of the eggs is covered in 1615 by a master craftsman in Strasbourg, the elaborate decoration of eggs was most common in Eastern Europe.

Protestant families developed in the 17th Century, the Easter Bunny as egg suppliers, first mentioned in 1680 in Alsace by physician Georg Franck von Frankenau. He should paint hiding the eggs and place. Thus the Protestants wanted to distance themselves from the Catholics, whose customs Fast eggs and they refused ordination. The Easter bunny is a symbol of Easter and new life because of its fertility - especially in the spring - and because he sleeps with his eyes open. Even the cock brought in some places the eggs in Switzerland, the cuckoo, in Westphalia, the fox, the stork in Thuringia. in Ansbach, Bavaria in 1757 was supposed to be a egg-laying rabbit caught and written about it purely protocol. Only in the 19th Century could be the Easter Bunny prevail everywhere.
