  Sad news...

MR unfortunately was closed last year

Paustian lost the star under new ownship

Geranium with Rasmus Kofoed (the gold winner of Bocuse d’Or Europe 2010 and the gold winner Bocuse d’Or World in 2011) got only a rising star this year.

Ridiculous!

Sex three times a week

SEX THREE TIMES A WEEK can reduce men's risk of heart attack and thrombosis TWICE - states a study, that was presented at a Congress of heart problemes in Melbourne, Australia.

Another study, made in Scotland, shows that couples, who have sex three and more times a week, look at least 10 YEARS YOUNGER than their peers who have less sex.

Smell of tangerines...

The smell of tangerines - I like it, as well as all other citrus fruits smell (and taste too)!

Though we celebrated New Year a month ago in Europe, in China it is today, 3rd of February. Here comes the year of White Rabbit - 白兔 (bai tu) - a year of peace and hospitality, serenity and warmth.

While New Years night, the Chinese visit each other wishing Happy New Year and present two tangerines - 2 is a harmonious balanced number and tangerines are a symbol of good luck, and oranges are for wealth.

Happy Chinese New Year! The year of white and fluffy gay rabbit :)

Durex connecting people :)

BANNED!

I was slightly shocked today, when I saw a list of children and youth books that were banned in U.S. in the within last ten current millennium. Many organizations and super moral parents are busy to remove some books from the shelves in schools and libraries.

Guess which book is topping the list? I bet you would never do it! The Harry Potter novel series! A long list of reasons.

Number two is the book “And Tango Makes Three” based on a true story of two penguins from Central Park Zoo who raised a baby penguin. The problem is that both penguin parents are male…

On the third place is The Diary of Anne Frank, one of the best selling books of all time, translated in over 50 languages. Never the less, all existing copies of the book were removed recently this year in one of the schools in Culpeper County, Virginia. “Explicit sexual themes” was the reason…

The fourth place got Merriam Webster Dictionary. I’m not joking, check yourself! This dictionary was removed from all schools in Menifee Union School District in California. Ups, a few students found the definition of “oral sex” and told their parents about it. So, the dictionary had to leave the shelves.

The most banned book in U.S. schools and libraries within the last nearly 60 years – “The Catcher In The Rye” by J.D.Salinger – is on the fifth place. The book is still very unpopular among parents, and the last attempt to ban it was taken last year at Big Sky High School in Montana. “Of Mice And Man” by Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck is also constantly laying on the 5th honourable place the last 10 years. The list of banned books is endless…

I smiled when “Fahrenheit 451” by Ray Bradbury was removed from the required reading list of the West Marion High School in Foxworth, Mississippi. A parent complained of the use of the words "God damn" in the book.

I’ve just thought, what a future would have Danish teenager book “Min Fucking Familie” (“My Fucking Family” in English – this name stands on the cover of the book and the expression is used nearly on every page, including many other common to it, the plot is reflected in the name of the book) by Ina Bruhn in U.S.? Meanwhile we speculate about it’s fate, some Danish students in the 8th grade are finishing the last pages of the book.

Believe me, the smile was gone, when I found that Astrid Lindgrens “Karlson On The Roof” (“Karlsson på taket” in Swedish) is banned too. The reason – subversive views on babysitters.

Joy, Sex, Pleasure, Contentedness...

What is happiness?
Love, they tell me.
But love doesn't bring and never has brought happiness.
On the contrary, it's a constant state of anxiety,
a battlefield; it's sleepless nights,
asking ourselves all the time if we're doing the right thing.
Real love is composed of ecstasy and agony.
I spent a lot of my life looking for happiness.
Now what I want is joy.
Joy is like sex - it begins and ends.
I want pleasure. I want to be contented.
But happiness? I no longer fall into that trap.
