Mittmann's Restaurant

An eine Stelle, wo man nicht gerade ein gutes Restaurant erwartet und wo man vielleichts nachts nicht einmal gerne allein herumlaeuft liegt Mittmann's Restaurant. Ich war da so haeufig mit dem Fahrad vorbeigefahren und irgenwie hatte mich das Menu gereizt, Kalbsnieren, mit Zwiebeln. Z.B. Ich kam an gegen 22 Uhr nach einem wundervollen aperitivo bei. Und zunaechst wollte mich ein grummeliger glatykoepfiger Kellner gleich wieder herauswerfen. Er wurde dann aber von einer netten blonden Kollegen des Besseren belehrt und ja, ich koennte noch etwas zu essen haben.

From March 24-28 we met in Addis Abbaba for the first face2face meeting of the CIARD Content Management Taskforce. Background material on CIARD is at https://www.ciard.net/index.php?id=388.  I see the CIARD initiative as the most important community of practice to achieve a collaborative space in Agricultural Science and Technology Information.

Are Economics science?

Hey, Economics Geniuses! What Happened? - BusinessWeek
magazine cover
The business week articles treats how the world economists failed to predict the finance crisis of the last year.  One of the reader commented: " so what? economics is not science, but philosophy and you cannot get any relevant guidance out of that". 
This is widespread opinion,  linguistically well expressed in English, where "science" is only applied for physics, chemistry, biology and the likes, whereas all the other stuff is labeled as "humanities". 

Zander

Startseite  

I have been to the Zander first time in February 2007 and had kept it in my memory as an expensive but worthwhile place.  I came back in November 2008 with a party of 6 ( the same party that had dinner the night before in ; Sol y Sombra for a mere 110 €.) This time I wante to show my friends from Boston that there is also "fine dining".

Ich bin jetzt zwei mal in diesem Restaurant gewesen,  das sowohl fuer die Qualitaet als fuer die Preise ins obere Drittel der Berliner "Esstaetten" eingruppiert werden muss.

Is this culturally relevant?

Following an article in the "Spiegel"  59% of all Spanish people believe in God in a traditional sense, 18% are not believers at all, whereas 74% of all Italians do believe in God in a tradional sense, whereas only 6 % are  not believers.  The numbers come from a survey conducted by the EC, 4 years ago.

What I liked: Barack Obama, in his inauguration speech mentioned non believers on the same level as Christians, Muslims, Jews and others.
