Consider again that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

Immer wieder sehr bewegend.

Thanks, Carl Sagan.

Über keine Opfergruppe des Zweiten Weltkrieges ist heute so wenig bekannt wie über die Waisenkinder Ostpreußens. Krieg, Hunger und Kälte überlebt, ohne Eltern aufgewachsen, sterben die letzten "Wolfskinder" langsam weg.

Der Film "Wolfskinder" erzählt von einer ostpreußischen Flüchtlingsfamilie, deren Kinder sich auf den Trecks aus ihrer Heimat verloren hatten und auf wundersame Weise wieder zusammenfanden. Eberhard Fechner schildert die spannenden Erlebnisse dieser Geschwister zwischen Privatem und Geschichtlichem.

"Howl" is a poem written by Allen Ginsberg in 1955. The poem is considered to be one of the great works of the Beat Generation. "Howl" was originally written as a performance piece, but it was later published by poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti of City Lights Books. The poem was originally considered to be obscene, and Ferlinghetti was arrested and charged with its publication. On October 3, 1957, Judge Clayton W. Horn ruled that the poem was not obscene!
