I just saw part II of “Pirates Of The Carribean” (original version) – funny, there is no “part II” in the English title like in the German one – instead, it is called “Dead Man’s Chest”… but yet it is a sequel, so one will automatically compare it to the first one.
I think it is a nice movie with some great special effects, but only Johnny Depp makes this movie worth seeing – I love this guy (figuratively)! The way he acts is unbelievable: like in the fist movie, he talks and moves like someone who is kind of drunk as a skunk with a sunstroke in a feminine way. It is a pleasure to watch that – actually, his way of speaking in that movie was the vital reason for me to see the original version. His voice in the German version really sucks.
Bill Nighy also acts greatly as Davy Jones. Funny – I could tell it was him just because of the eyes… OK, the voice was a second help…
And then there is Keira Knightly who really is a beautiful woman (and therefore also a pleasure to watch) – and in addition to that, her accent is really sexy. 
The story? Well, it didn’t convince me that much. It seems like a slightly altered version of the first one: the black pearl, dead people, a secret treasure, a rescue, love, a curse, blabla.
I heard that they shot the 3rd part right after they finished the second one, so no wonder there is an open end – and that we will see some of the characters again. But regardless of what the story of the 3rd movie will be like: with Johnny Depp in it, I will also watch that one. Thumbs up, Johnny!

I have always wondered what happens on the molecular basis when I slice bread or cut something into pieces. Clearly, the bread as well as the knife consist of molecules – and on a deeper level of atoms – and even deeper there are electrons, photons etc.
What one does is that one puts pressure on the knife, and then it “goes through” the bread. Cutting harder material sometimes requires another technique, like “sawing” for example, but the process on the molecular basis must be similar. The only difference seems to be the smoothness of the surface of the pieces after slicing/cutting. Like, when you use an iron saw to cut.. let’s say a nail… then the nail might look a little frayed… whereas the bread looks smooth after slicing, especially if one uses white bread… and if you break wood, it usually splinters and does not look smooth at all.
What is really going on there? It seems that I can seperate molecules by “pressing or rubbing other molecules” against them (slicing/cutting/sawing) or even with my bare muscular strength (breaking)! Isn’t that strange?
What happens to the molecules at the location where I slice/cut/break? Do I really split whole molecules, so as if they get divorced and then live on two other sides of the bread – each one damned to live a life as a half or to search for a new partner? Or do I just break up friendships (like groups of molecules, but each one remains an integral whole)? Why does the knife stay in shape? Is it because the molecules of the knife have a more powerful “electromagnetical relationship” that keeps them together even when they are “pressured”?
Slicing bread can really be an intellectual experience.

Added the pages “Martial Arts” (which has to be filled, it has currently no content yet ) and “Bookmarks” (which will hopefully grow in the next time).

Before I forget: please check out my sister’s (German) website www.tinaluthe.de and buy her first book “Irish Coffee”, because I want her to become a famous author – which would make me her famous brother .

Thanks to the c’t I found an interesting animation on orange.blender.org, which was created with blender, “an open source software for 3D modeling, animation, rendering, post-production, interactive creation and playback.”

As you can see, I just started using wordpress instead of typing all that HTML-code by myself. It is a lot easier and I can focus on the content now… which I hope will one day become interesting and manifold.
