Carnival again

Carnival is a festival season. It occurs immediately before Lent; the main events are usually during February or March. It typically involves a public celebration or parade combining some elements of a circus and public street party. People often dress up or masquerade during the celebrations.

Oxford Experience Summer School

Englisch üben einmal anders

Von Ariane Rüdiger

Sprachtraining in Verbindung mit britischer Kultur: Akademische Sommerkurse im Christ Church College in Oxford

Wer heute im Beruf erfolgreich sein will, muss meist fließend Englisch beherrschen. Wenn gute Englischkenntnisse Rost ansetzen, sollte man daher gegensteuern. Doch helfen konventionelle Sprachkurse wenig, sobald deren Niveau unter den eigenen Sprachfertigkeiten liegt. Zum Glück gibt es Alternativen - beispielsweise "Oxford Experience", akademische Sommerkurse für Erwachsene an der Universität von Oxford.

New Film: Darjeeling Limited

In director Wes Anderson's THE DARJEELING LIMITED, three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other -- to become brothers again like they used to be. Their 'spiritual quest', however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machine. At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins. Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, and Jason Schwartzman star in this film about their adventure and their friendship.
