			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Came across this movie tonight somewhat by accident. Very cool!</p>
<blockquote><p>The Social Life of Small Urban Spaces</p>
<p>This witty and original film is about the open spaces of cities and why some of them work for people while others don&#8217;t. Beginning at New York&#8217;s Seagram Plaza, one of the most used open areas in the city, the film proceeds to analyze why this space is so popular and how other urban oases, both in New York and elsewhere, measure up. Based on direct observation of what people actually do, the film presents a remarkably engaging and informative tour of the urban landscape and looks at how it can be made more hospitable to those who live in it. </p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s a little end-of-year krautsourcing experiment.  I&#8217;m looking for a list of German phrases that express a certain kind of surprise, disbelief, irritation, annoyance or sometimes appreciation and compliment.  When saying them out loud, they can or may occasionally be accompanied by a slap on the knee or standing one arm <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/akimbo">akimbo</a> or other gestures (e.g. two hands raised to the head if it&#8217;s really bad).</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a few examples (note that even though technically some of these may be questions the intonation tends to be that of a statement or exclamation, hence no question mark):</p>
<ul>
<li>Ja, gibt&#8217;s denn sowas.</li>
<li>Ja, ist es denn die Möglichkeit.</li>
<li>Haste nicht gesehen!</li>
<li>Leck mich am Arsch!</li>
<li>Ja, do legs di nieda! (Bavarian, sp?)</li>
<li>Heilig&#8217;s Blechle! (Swabian)</li>
<li>Das schlägt dem Fass den Boden aus!</li>
<li>Das ist doch wirklich das allerletzte!</li>
<li>Da wird doch der Hund in der Pfanne verrückt!</li>
<li>Heiliges Kanonenrohr!</li>
</ul>
<p>You get the gist.</p>
<p>Thing is, the junior finds these absolutely, completely hilarious and has the best of times when he hears them. He can&#8217;t seem to get enough and I&#8217;m quickly running out of variations.</p>
<p>Please help me expand this list. Let me know: what do you use when something like <em>that</em> just happened? What do your parents or grandparents use? Don&#8217;t be shy, some of these can get quite expletive.  Give a little background (like region), too, if you feel like it.</p>
<p>Happy New Year!</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong></p>
<p>More expressions that fall into this category (rhythm and melody wise):</p>
<ul>
<li>Sapperlot!</li>
<li>Himmel, Arsch und Zwirn!</li>
<li>Mannomann!</li>
<li>Ach du liebe Güte!</li>
<li>Ich fass es nich’</li>
<li>Ich glaub, mich tritt ein Pferd</li>
<li>Zapperlot!</li>
<li>Ach du grüne Neune!</li>
<li>Grundgütiger!</li>
<li>Du meine Güte!</li>
<li>Jetzt schlägt’s Dreizehn</li>
<li>Ach, du ahnst es nicht!</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Update 2</strong></p>
<p>More good ones&#8230;</p>
<ul>
<li>Leck mich in de täsch! (Rhineland)</li>
<li>Ich glaub, mein Schwein pfeift.</li>
<li>Mich laust der Affe!</li>
<li>Heiliger Bimbam!</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s not easy to get excited about German politics these days. In fact, most Germans I talk to have grown pretty frustrated over the years with the way politics is organized.</p>
<p>By and large, the political parties lack agility and drive, their platforms don&#8217;t seem to grasp the big picture challenges the country is facing and their personnel is either exhausted or lacks credibility (or both). There are no <em>stars</em> around anymore, and I dare you to try to remember the last time a political idea, concept or proposal made you go &#8220;wow!&#8221;</p>
<p>So, what if you were to re-engineer a political party in Germany today? Here&#8217;s a quick sketch, probably highly flawed, of five principles that I believe could make almost any party fairly popular within a few years.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/planspark/3872327694/" title="Blueprint for the next successful political party in Germany by planspark, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2494/3872327694_d8e8cffa3c.jpg" width="500" height="294" alt="Blueprint for the next successful political party in Germany" /></a></p>
<p>A market with so many unhappy customers will be a huge opportunity for whoever manages to figure out how to do things differently, politically speaking.</p>
<p>Just sayin&#8217;&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In ner Ecke, vom Garten, hat der Paule sein Beet<br />
und da hat er sich dieses Jahr Rüben gesät.<br />
Und da, wo sonst Bohnen die Stangen hochklettern,<br />
wächst jetzt eine Rübe mit riesigen Blättern.</p>
<p>Paul staunt, und er sagt sich: Ei, wenn ich nur wüßt,<br />
wie groß und wie schwer diese Rübe wohl ist.<br />
Schon krempelt er eilig die Ärmel hoch,<br />
packt die Rübe beim Schopf und zog und zog.</p>
<p>Doch die Rübe, die rührt sich kein bißchen vom Fleck,<br />
Paul zieht, und Paul schwitzt, doch er kriegt sie nicht weg.<br />
Da ruft der Paul seinen Freund, den Fritz,<br />
und der kommt auch gleich um die Ecke geflitzt.</p>
<p>Hauruck zieht der Paul, und hauruck zieht der Fritz.<br />
Alle Mann, nichts wie ran, ganz egal, ob man schwitzt.<br />
Die Rübe ist dick, und die Rübe ist schwer,<br />
wenn die dicke, schwere Rübe doch schon rausgezogen wär!</p>
<p>Jetzt ziehn sie zu zweit mit Hallo und Hauruck,<br />
doch die Rübe bleibt drin, sie bewegt sich kein Stück.<br />
Und Fritz, der läuft los, holt vom Nachbarn den Klaus,<br />
zu dritt kommt die Rübe ganz sicher heraus.</p>
<p>Herrjeh, was ne Rübe, ja da staunt auch der Klaus.<br />
Jetzt ziehn wir ganz fest, und dann kommt sie schon raus.<br />
Doch die Rübe, die saß drin, und da sagte der Klaus:<br />
Ich hol meine Schwester, die ist grad zu Haus.</p>
<p>Hauruck zieht der Paul ….</p>
<p>Jetzt ziehn sie zu viert, doch die Rübe bleibt drin.<br />
Der Fritz meint schon traurig: &#8217;s hat doch keinen Sinn.<br />
Ganz plötzlich ruft Paul: hier, ich hab ne Idee,<br />
wie wär&#8217;s, wenn wir mal zum Antonio gehn?</p>
<p>Doch da meint der Klaus: sowas hilft uns nicht weiter.<br />
Das sind ja alles Kinder von so Gastarbeitern.<br />
Mein Vater sagt immer, die verschwänden viel besser.<br />
Und außerdem sind das Spaghettifresser!</p>
<p>Das ärgert den Paul, was der Klaus da so spricht.<br />
Der Antonio ist kräftig, und dumm ist er nicht.<br />
Und ausserdem, Klaus, hast Du eins wohl vergessen,<br />
Du hast Dich an Spaghetti neulich fast überfressen.</p>
<p>Wir brauchen Antonio und auch seine Brüder.<br />
Klaus&#8217; Schwester versteht&#8217;s, und sie läuft schnell hinüber,<br />
hat alle geholt, und gemeinsam gings ran,<br />
alle Kinder zusammen, die packen jetzt an.</p>
<p>Hauruck zieht der Paul, &#8230;</p>
<p>Den Antonio zieht der Carlo mit Hallo und Hauruck,<br />
und sieh da die dicke Rübe, die bewegt sich ein Stück.<br />
Und jetzt nochmal Hauruck, und die Erde bricht auf,<br />
die Rübe kommt raus und liegt groß oben drauf.</p>
<p>Die Kinder, die purzeln jetzt all durcheinander,<br />
doch freut sich ein jeder nun über den andern.<br />
Sie sehn, wenn man sowas gemeinsam anpackt,<br />
wird die allerdickste Rübe aus der Erde geschafft.</p>
