Year in Review 2010: Music, Movies & Co.
It's that time again, Monsieur Fischer 'Factor. The past year has now just stand for what it was. A rating is difficult for me, okay I am 40 years old. But otherwise it was kind of the year, as there were already so many things in my life. Sure, .. with highlights and Downs as it should be: Small Capo made our lives in 2010, very great pleasure, my company and thrives on, on the few good friends was always rely on the year, the summer was hot and winter cold. But especially the great house, I would like to mention here, in which one can finally hear again right music and partying. What we then also already in the first category would be ...
music 2010
Two songs are in my view clearly for the past year: "Waka Waka" by Shakira and "Satellite" by Lena. I will not say that - especially the Shakira title - these two songs were my personal songs of the year, but somehow it was definitely not past them. Also give to self, I am a bit in the Lena Meyer-country love Ruth ... In "Waka Waka" I then during the World Cup summer but suddenly realized that it is only a cover. The original is from the Chicas del Can and is called "El negro no puede
. Otherwise, it was again a more moderate year in terms of good music, clear gabs a few innovations, which have quite surprised. But those were one-day tickets often stop. A kind of annual charts I find so hard, I can reasonably than using iTunes list of who or what was on my players often 2010: Far forward is the new album by James Blunt, closely followed by Soprano. But the Young Gods were also very popular and as usual, innumerable acts from France.
Books 2010
course, came in this year scores of new books the market, according to the critics - who know yes - was this year very much garbage there. When I have the following books on the bedside table, the iPad or iPhone managed and are still stuck in my memory:
- Natascha Kampusch "3096 days"
- Sarah Kuttner "deficiencies" specimen "
- Rolf Töpperwien" From Braunschweig to Johannesburg "
- Ulrich Offenberg," The History of Islam "
- Jürgen Domian" The mind reader "
- Arto Paasilinna" God Bueller "
- Bastian Sick" The dative is the genitive case, his death - Episode 4 "
Cinema 2010
Well, we say then another. I have been to the movies more often than last year, but this is not so much that I do not want to go to the movies, but rather the fact that the films at the cinema - at least for us - run almost exclusively in German. And I simply do not like! When I go to the movies, I want to see the original version and not the dubbed version. Well, and if the people seem stupid and too lazy to either read a foreign language or reading subtitles, then I do without holding on expenditure for the movies. But at the same time in modern times gives fortunately other ways to get all the latest movies. So I can say that I've seen almost all the hits 2010th Be it "The Tourist," "Harry Potter", "Zweiohrküken", "Inception", "SATC2," "Grown Ups" or "Despicable Me". So really carved out of the shoes I was then but the bottom line - as with the music - unfortunately nothing. Okay, the Leo DiCaprio movie was strange and yet somehow just as good. I have left is for sure, "Gainsbourg," the biography of the French cult star. Also called "Machete" was somehow more original and "RED" quite funny. And there was this wonderful Mélanie Laurent - Hach! But as you build in this day and age almost every other movie theater so a 3-D cinema has, there is less room for the "small Films from Europe, which will then result in 2011 probably means that I am no longer find so often in the cinema, just as it did ...
Sport 2010
There
clear that here the descent of the FC Aarau is the focus to say much to it but no more. On and off the field far too many mistakes were made, the good will, although perhaps da -. but there is too often the successful execution of external assistance and takes the leadership to not like, an experience that I - along with other innovative people / fans - In 2010 had experienced at first hand. Forecast for 2011? Let's see ... Better make it Olympique de Marseille champions and cup winners! Positive peak in this year was clearly the Soccer World Cup in South Africa. Hammer! The public viewing in Schachen tent was awesome, the mood was the same in each case. My number 1 team - les Bleus - has not only disappointed, it was just plain embarrassing! Did you like the Italo, the Portuguese or the English. Switzerland has at least one game really brought joy and ensuring a memorable motorcade through the city. But after then both F and for CH after the preliminary final I've been concentrating on my FanPower Germany, at least I was until I was 10 years old time fan of Germany, including Breitner-shirt. The Germans have shown in my eyes the best football and would have deserved the World Cup title, but who went to the Spaniard and that was okay! Otherwise? Vettel deserved Formula 1 world champion, the Swiss Federal wrestling could inspire, Roger Federer is back, Simi Ammann is a hero and the ski stars made their name.
TV 2010
No, I'm not mutated into a Serienfan in 2010, on the contrary even. Apart from the Monk-finals (I was a little disappointing ...), The Simpsons and Doctor's Diary I've seen nothing that has more than 3 episodes. Desperate, I go to the stations on the way, what with us shit all U.S. series garbage. Of course, gabs much TV sports, no wonder at the Olympic Winter Games, Soccer World Cup and the Federal Wrestling Festival the same year. Once again, however, was for me the Stefan Raab TV-maker of the year. With his "Our song for Oslo", "Beat your Host!", "Federal Vision Song Contest" and Co., he continues to hit my nerve. When it comes to talent shows I have so missed a lot, no matter whether it went to Models, Super talent or pop stars. In my opinion, these shows are over, just like Talk or Court programs. In general I am of the opinion that TV-makers do stupid stupid TV almost exclusively for TV audiences silly. Or how could things like "Farmer Wants a Wife" or "daughter wanted .." otherwise explained. I myself have never seen, it's enough when I see the cut in each of these people on "TV Total". Tragic! Okay, I've also watched a documentary "Rach's Restaurant School," because I admit, that I the philosopher and mathematician Christian Rach simply brilliant find. Finally, a word "Wetten dass." Yes I've seen The show live and I was also shocked. However, the man just already knew what he was doing and knew the risk and ZDF. Faster, further and higher ... loud fart on a concert stage already reached not the media makers 2010th Free Rainer!
Policy 2010
Oh yes, it was a busy year in politics and society. There is the Korean conflict, which accompanies us through all the months and the end of the year has even risen. Continued open .. We read a lot of fights, assaults and racers in late November, Switzerland has voted on the question of deportation of foreign offenders and the yes and a two-class law created on its implementation, we may now be curious. In France, also deported alien, Sarkozy has ruled that drivers need to get out and is now considering an expulsion seated on the Swiss model. The social problems in the suburbs are thus no less. shall also continue to stir the Cyber War by about Wikileaks, I'm excited by what surprised us secrets Julian Assange an extent. Incidentally, I believe that it is quite good that there are sources to make the state secrets public. That's why Assange now must fear for his life, this is tragic. Back in Switzerland, as cabinet ministers were sent into retirement and new elected. I am pleased that the government was further rejuvenated and at the same time have so many women call the shots.
Technology 2010
Yeah, that iPad. For me the highlight of the year. Since my Geburi I have such a part and I would not miss it anymore. As mentioned in the blog often, so really need to live you are doing such a tray of course not. But it is fun and that's at least something. I read all the newspapers, for example inzwschen on the iPad, use it as a video recorder, mixer and Musikintrument. Immediately after the iPad follows the second device from Apple: the iphone4. A quantum leap in terms of graphics and speed. I also had zero problems in terms of reception, as at the beginning of the year agen announces wurde.Ebenfalls joy gives me my new record player! Yes, you read that right - a record player. Although my old Revox does still working his service, but the new thing has USB port, and much more and I can finally digitize my countless records. I was impressed this year by the way also the progress on consoles, this Kintec for the XBox and Playstation Move seem fun to make. In our living room, it has not done any of the two. Still ...
Games 2010
When I'm writing right from the PS3, then I'll still just a window for the Games of the year. I'm not big gamblers, but thanks iPad and even the PS3 comes but once a game here and there to an evening where I ne round. Especially for the iPad are some really great role-playing and adventure games that have really impressed me this year. Similarly, board games like Settlers or Carcassonne, which can play the best together. For the Playstation gabs of course, the FIFA World Cup and FIFA 11, this recently Gran Turismo 5 All highly recommended, especially on the race game HDMI. Finally, the flop of the Year FIFA Manager 11 "for the PC, a game full of errors. Yes, not buy, even if the price is reduced these days.
Media Issues 2010
Actually this is exactly the big titles This year's theme. From almost all media hype in 2010 was made. Winter is a horror winter, summer, summer of the century, all accidents were particularly tragic, all records unique ... and so on. The newspapers (And the electronic media) did not know how themselves willing to meet each other more in terms of absolute adjectives. Thus, out of mine workers in Chile at a time world stars, was an oil leak in the sea while diligently reported - until it was closed, however, it took forever. A similar fate befell the people of Haiti, they were buffeted by fate indeed, but they were after the first big fundraiser forgotten until the cholera broke out. Sustained aid looks somehow different. But there was so then even the floods in Pakistan, the volcano with the funny name and the public Kachelmann process and the sex scandal from Sweden and the Love Parade and the engagement of Kate and William and Stuttgart21. In short, there was hardly an issue since it was already from the next oh-so-detached important issue. The main thing always make nice panic, and stir up new fears create sensations. Since the swine flu was of course just right for user Revolver regional stations M1 - I remember - almost the beginning of the end of the world. "Will we all die?" Meanwhile, two thirds of the current cases of influenza H1N1 virus in Switzerland and no pig screams more then ...

person of the Year 2010
message of 13 November this year: "The Burmese military junta frees the regime critic, Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel Peace Prize winner was continuously since 2003 under house arrest.." For me is Aung San Suu Kyi in the league of Nelson Mandela. For years, fight for good, even if one is in jail and nearly kills you.
Aung San Suu Kyi on 19 June 1945, when daughter of General Aung San National leader killed (on 19 July 1947) and Daw Khin Kyi was born. She was educated in Rangoon and Burma, until she was 15 years old. In 1960 she accompanied her mother to Delhi, where she worked as Burma's ambassador to India and Nepal. Kyi studied philosophy, politics and economics. She worked the next few years abroad and married Michael Aris, and during this time had two children.
When she returned to Burma in 1988, to look after her sick mother, joined Aung San Suu Kyi, the pro-democracy movement, the political reforms in Burma demanded. End of the 80 Years, she spoke to half a million people before the famous Swedagon Padagon in Rangoon and called for a democratic government. She was later arrested by the military government and detained for years. During her detention, her the Nobel Prize. She raised a health and education fund to benefit the people of Burma, which it used the prize money of 1.3 million. After this year's release from the Hausa remainder is Aung San Suu Kyi her work for democracy and freedom in Burma fort.Nach indicated that she expects it every day, however, again set to be.
