It strikes me a strange, as since a change to the law in Germany a few months ago the call centres now risk a fine if they do not transmit their telephone number when they call you. This seems to have held them back somewhat for a while, but now there is no stopping them. Recently we have been getting calls on a daily basis. Sometimes these were so-called “ping” calls, where a computer dials a lot of numbers at once and connects the first ones that answer, dropping the… -

Much of the blogosphere is buzzing about this today, as are the mainstream media. And one of the… -

I'm Coming to America!
4 Nov 2009 | 11:00 pmDuring the Spring/Summer, we thought we were moving back to America. It was a really fast thing that turned into nothing. But before we found out if fell through, I was working hard to get things in order for a quick move. But, at the same time, I was working hard to get things in order here, just in case it didn't work out. And I am so glad I did that.When that happened, I told Gardner I -

Ian's birthday marks how long we have been in Germany.We moved here to Germany on September 21, 2006. This comes just three weeks after Ian was born. Ian being born just marks the craziness that happened to get us out of the country.We had plan tickets already bought. We had -
Ian's 3rd Birthday
3 Nov 2009 | 11:27 amSo today, I am starting my catch up on the blog. Ian had his 3rd birthday on August 31st. We had fun celebrating a day early. Very bad luck here in Germany, to celebrate early. But Spencer was going to be on a class trip the next day. And we just could not celebrate with out him. We had the Becker's come over for dinner after Church. Uwe and Ursula are like the Kids Grandparents here in -

France: public hygene, art, and tarts in Albi
17 Nov 2009 | 8:01 amAlbi is a charming old town about an hour's drive from Toulouse. Its architecture is a fascinating mixture of tumbling down ruins, beautifully-restored old brick houses, and modern embellishments.The public showers were open and ready for business. How convenient that you can tell that smelly person sitting next to you on the bus, "Here's a euro, please go have a shower on me." Of course he'd probably use it instead to buy a bottle of yummy local wine.I'm usually in a perpetual state of church burn-out, but Albi's was worth a visit. We paid a couple euros for an audioguide which did a good… -
Schwarm: flashmobbing in Munich
11 Nov 2009 | 1:39 amBack home in Munich, and the fun continues. Last night we participated in Moment of Starlings, a flash mob event that momentarily bewildered many a passerby downtown.We received information on the meeting point by SMS about an hour before the event was to start. After crowding into a bookstore to listen to an introduction and receive some general instruction, we were off. Text messages with new instructions arrived sporadically over the next hour and a half, and the crowd of a hundred or so people was delighted to do the bidding of our unseen puppet master.I loved the looks on bystanders'… -
Squeezing the fun out of London
9 Nov 2009 | 9:58 amI have had the good fortune to go to London twice this year, with more trips planned soon. Such an infinitely entertaining city, with friendly people and charming accents. I could spend years there and not get bored. This time I was hosted by the lovely and talented Em and her husband Jeremy. You might notice a certain similarity between this post and one on her blog.Em just moved to London, so it was fun to get to explore her new city with her. We found a local pub with her favorite beer (I use this term loosely) on tap and another one with a fun-filled pub quiz night. Our all-American team… -
Oktoberfest 2009 day 16: Das Schützen Festzelt
3 Nov 2009 | 12:49 amSomehow we managed to survive another whole Oktoberfest, concluding with a day in the Schützen Festzelt. This is the largest tent at Oktoberfest, and they really know how to pack in the people.As we were ordering up our first round of beers the tent shook with a mighty loud boom. Everyone jumped a bit except for the waitress, who calmly explained that they were doing some last-day-of-Oktoberfest ceremonial shooting over on the steps to the Bavaria statue, right next to the tent. There were more booms to come, so we might as well get used to it.The feel and atmosphere inside the Schützen… -
Oktoberfest 2009 day 13: Weinzelt, good and bad
1 Nov 2009 | 4:49 amAfter a couple nice visits last year, I was really looking forward to our evening reservation at the Weinzelt this year. Overall it was a fabulously fun Oktoberfest night, but my esteem for this tent has dropped considerably. I'll have to be on the lookout for a new favorite.The main reason I love the Weinzelt is because almost all of the tables are booths, meaning there is a nice barrier between you and the asses of the drunk, sweaty, squirmy guys sitting at the table behind you. This little detail increases my enjoyment of a long session at Oktoberfest considerably. Another nice touch is…

Audi A7 Sportback: First pictures!

No need to say, but it's a must see for all Audi fans. Underlining the A7’s driver appeal is an imposing radiator grille and at the rear, the hint of an aerodynamic spoiler.

Bloggerstudie der FH Köln: Keine gekauften Blogger
20 Nov 2009 | 8:38 amNach einer aktuellen Studie der Fachhochschule Köln wurde eine weitgehende inhaltliche Unabhängigkeit von Blogs belegt. Damit widerspricht diese Bloggerstudie dem fälschlich entstandenen und weit verbreiteten Vorurteil über gekaufte Blogger. Vielmehr entsteht nach der Befragung von 347 Bloggern und Forenbetreibern das Bild einer großen Unabhängigkeit gegenüber Werbung und Vermarktungsinteressen. Eine große mediale Aufmerksamkeit über die gekauften Blogger entstand nach einem Artikel in der taz vom 22.04.2009. Dabei bezog man sich ausgerechnet auf den Informationswissenschaftler Prof. -
Madras Curry
18 Nov 2009 | 12:47 pmIch habe mal wieder etwas gekocht. Es handelt sich um ein Madras Curry. Das ist einfach, preisgünstig und vor allem 100% lecker. Zuvor habe ich auch andere Curry-Pasten ausprobiert. So gab es z.B. ein Tandori-Curry. Das war aber nicht so lecker. Das jetzt verwendete Madras Curry stammt von der Firma MeiAsia, die ihre Produkte als authentisch bezeichnet. Curry ist ja ohnehin das typische Essen aus Indien. Das Madras-Curry ist eigentlich für den Wok gadacht. Den braucht man aber gar nicht. Eine normale Pfanne reicht vollkommen aus. Darin wird das Fleisch mit wenig Öl scharf angebraten. Da… -
Freiherr von Gleichenstein Hofgarten Weisser Burgunder 2008
17 Nov 2009 | 1:20 pmZur Feier des Tages gibt es jetzt einen Wein vom Weingut Freiherr von Gleichenstein aus Oberrotweil am Kaiserstuhl (Baden). Der Anlass besteht darin, dass im heute veröffentlichten Gault Millau WeinGuide 2010 Johannes Freiherr von Gleichenstein zum “Aufsteiger des Jahres” geworden ist. Damit hat das Weingut nun vier Trauben bekommen. Begründet wird dies jedoch vor allem mit den Spätburgundern und einigen weißen Lagenweinen. Doch so ein Weingut mit vier Trauben sollte auch in den günstigen Weinen eine gute Qualität liefern. Zur Verkostung steht jetzt der 2008er Weisse… -
Auszeichnungen, Weine und Trauben im Gault Millau 2010
17 Nov 2009 | 5:00 amSeit heute ist der Gault Millau WineGuide 2010 offiziell im Handel ausgeliefert. Morgen wird er käuflich erhältlich sein. Eigentlich gibt es ihn jedoch schon seit einigen Tagen. Durch einen Fehler wurde der Gault Millau WineGuide 2010 in diesem Jahr schon vorzeitig an Käufer in Internetshops verschickt und in Regale von Buchhandlungen gestellt. So sind die Auszeichnungen, Weine und Trauben im Gault Millau 2010 schon einige Zeit kein Geheimnis mehr. Doch das war nicht die einzige Panne. So zeigt die zeitweise überlastete Homepage des Gault Millau Armin Diel immer noch als einen der beiden… -
Jürgen von der Mark präsentiert den REWE-Wein

Nun gibt es drei große Partner, die einen Schritt in diese Richtung unternommen haben. Da ist zum einen den Master of Wine Jürgen von der Mark. Zum zweiten ist die Supermarktkette REWE der exklusive Vertriebspartner für den Wein. Der dritte Partner ist die Winzergenossenschaft Weinland Baden. “Ab sofort kann jeder an Jürgen von der Marks Traum teilhaben”, so steht es in der anpreisenden Broschüre von REWE zu…

Erfolg, Respekt, Kapitulation, Aufklärung, Schutz, völlige Transparenz
20 Nov 2009 | 4:48 amDas ist die Aufklärung, die Alle lesen wollen… Erfolg: Der Verlag aus München hat gewonnen. Zusammen mit seiner Mannschaft konnten Sie das Sommer-Wein-Thema Nr. 1 als absolut kostenlose PR verbuchen und werden wohl eine erweiterte Auflage drucken müssen. Gestern wollte mein Vater in einer Buchhandlung mal hineinschauen… Ausverkauft!!! Respekt: Stattdessen schaute er in den Eichelmann hinein… Dieses Jahr standen wir überhaupt nicht darin! Und genau so soll es sein. Wir haben keine Weine zu Ihm geschickt und er hat uns auch nicht veröffentlicht. Das ist seriös! -

Le Beaujolais arrive!
13 Nov 2009 | 6:57 amWar das was im Nobember? Jawohl. Der Beaujolais kommt. Interessieren tut das längst keinen mehr, der Jungwein aus dem südlichen Burgund ist aus der Mode gekommen. Zu Recht und zu Unrecht - denn im Beaujolais wachsen fantastische Weine aus 100 Jahre alten Reben, die wenig kosten, manchmal überraschend gut altern und mit ihrer kühlen, feinen Frucht in die Zeit passen. Doch einen gibt es noch, der den Beaujolais Nouveau feiert: Im Restaurant Isenburg, einem Klassiker der Kölner Gourmetszene, wird dem jungen Gamay ein ganzes Menü gewidmet. Wann? Natürlich am dritten Donnerstag im November,… -
Visionärste Winzer der Schweiz - statt Winzer des Jahres
6 Nov 2009 | 8:13 amVisionärste Winzer der Schweiz gekürt Der unabhängige Weinguide „Die besten 400 Weingüter der Schweiz“ kürt erstmals die „visionärsten Winzer des Jahres“. Ausgezeichnet werden jene Erzeuger, welche die besten Ideen und Konzepte für die Zukunft haben – und dies in ihren Weinen umsetzen. Peter Wegelin, experimentierfreudiger Weinmacher aus der Bündner Herrschaft, ist ebenso darunter wie der Zürcher Jürg Saxer oder der Walliser Josef-Marie Chanton. „Die ausgezeichneten Winzer gehen eigene Wege, entziehen sich bewusst der Mode“, sagt Weinguide-Autor Wolfgang Fassbender. -
Fisch auf die süße Art: Fisch-Fiete in Keitum
2 Nov 2009 | 8:49 amMan soll vor Restaurantbesuchen nicht so viel im Internet stöbern. Kurz zuvor habe ich es doch getan und über Fisch-Fiete einiges Kritische gelesen. Von einer Oma stand da etwas, die schon mal mürrisch werde. Ein bisschen skeptisch ging ich die paar Meter vom Benen-Diken-Hof zum Klassiker-Restaurant von Keitum. Aber dann wird alles ganz anders... Fisch-Fiete nämlich ist inzwischen von der nächsten Generation übernommen worden. Enkel Thomas Sievers ist zuständig für das seit 55 Jahren existierende Unternehmen, und er wirkt gar nicht wie ein klassischer Gastronom: schlank, drahtig,… -

Aber gegenüber Cracks wie Gerd von Paczensky, Michael Johnson, Gerhard Eichelmann bin ich ja doch nur ein Waisenknabe. Und auch der deutsche Champagnerbotschafter Boris Maskow. Der hatte den deutschen Entscheid gewonnen und musste nun in Reims gegen die Konkurrenz aus dem UK, der Schweiz, aus Italien, Spanien, Belgien oder Frankreich antreten. Ganz hat es nicht gereicht für den ersten Platz. Den gewann der Kandidat aus dem Vereinigten Königreich. Aber sich in der Höhle des Champagner-Löwen…

Natürlich ließen Miss Shoppingverse & Miss Dealqueen sich dies nicht entgehen und pilgerten, wie so viele andere zu H&M. Da wir am Nachmittag erst antrafen, bekamen wir vom ganzen Tumult und den riesigen Warteschlangen nicht allzu viel mit – zum Glück.

Herbst + Schmuck = Blattohrringe
15 Nov 2009 | 2:48 amDraußen fallen die Blätter von den Bäumen. Herststimmung kommt auf. Passend dazu habe ich letztes Wochenende meine Schmucksammlung um diese entzückenden Blatt-Ohrringe von Dawanda erweitert. Ein paar Tage später durfte ich sie auch schon aus meinem Briefkasten fischen und seither sind sie mein treuer Begleiter am Ohr. Normalerweise tendiere ich zwar eher zu Silberschmuck, aber ab und an schafft es dann doch ein goldenes Schmuckstück in mein Schmuckkästchen. Gerade zur Weihnachtszeit, wenn ohnehin alles um uns herum glitzert, kann ein wenig bling-bling ja nicht schaden. :-) Eben…
