Die Diskussion kam bei mir nach Alpha Dog auf. Jetzt gibt es endlich neue, aktuellere und umfassendere Zahlen, doch From Dusk Till Dawn ist immer noch nicht dabei!

Sehr schön passt dazu die Kurzfassung von The Big Lebowski, die ich in den Kommentaren entdeckt habe.

J’ai trouvé un truc fantastique! C’est un SF Podcast en français. Chaque deux ou trois semaines il y a un conte nouveau.

restos du cœur

Since September last year al-x.org is featuring context sensitive ads to collect money for the good cause. Amazon is paying at least 5 percent of any sale done when ordering using one of the ad links. This piled up to the impressive amount of 3,79 EUR. In my article I said that I would double the amount and give it to a charity organisation of the publics choice. As the public did not speak, I chose myself.

The organisation for the donation is Les Restaurants du Cœur. Founded 1985 by Coluche they provide food and clothes to homeless people. They started to work in Paris and are now active all over France; there are also restos in Belgium and Germany.

I’m not a nouveau riche, I’m a former poor.

Coluche (Michel Colucci)

To not embarrass myself with an amount of less than 8 EUR, I rounded it up to 50 EUR.

Every year there is a charity concert called Les Enfoirés bringing together different artists. The gainings from the concerts, CD and DVD sales are also donated to the Restos.
