It is really astonishing how intensively the German government rules past its own citizens. A survey of the ZDF, one of the biggest German TV stations, showed that 61% of the people asked were against longer run-times of nuclear plants. But the government led by a coalition of the conservative and liberal party prefers making great gifts to the energy providers and gives nuclear power a bright future again.

Unbelievable, but in 2008 the Secretary General of the conservative party (CDU), Pofalla, even said, that “for the CDU nuclear energy is eco-energy”. Confront this brainless politician now with the situation in the nuclear dump in Asse/Germany and the problems with the nuclear waste that no one knows how to solve. I am not sure, if this man, who unfortunately is one of the leaders in Germany right now, will ever understand that sustainability and nuclear power cannot go together.

Putting silicone into the female breast is one way of extending body volume. Probably it is empirically proven that it has an appealing effect on the other genders appetite. But we’re not always on the prowl – there might be situations where we want to achieve the contrary effect. Esther Hoyer, master student at the Academy for Visual Arts (Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst) in Leipzig, took some annoying pictures of woman that are wearing so called “explants” to disrupt their beauty (ok, dear feminist, we can discuss whether a big butt is beautiful or not, but in matters of double chins we’d might get nearer in opinion).

In the end – isn’t it the nasty costumes that are the most appealing on carnival season? Those sweet bees and princesses are just boring.
