Playing and Gambling in New York


Just a little note about the culture of some inhabitans of New York: I drove down the 42nd street by bus and got off at the 2nd Av. Somebody was screaming around "Playing cards - 3 for 10 Dollars", "Play and gamble with Saddam", ... I had a look at them and you also can check the cardset at the internet (www.dod.mil/news/Apr2003/pipc10042003.html)- there you get them even more expensive, but i guess you would not spend a coin on that...

The UN Acts Against Terrorism


I found that information page about the UN acts against terrorism in the web at www.un.org/terrorism/ - and i was appalled about the colours the UN is using to symbolize their fight against "the international terrorism". Actually it looks more like a home-made unprofessional page. But the information you can find there are helpfull if you are interested in news and developments, resolutions, conventions and declarations of the UN and their forces.

Koppers, Feuerlandindianer Online


I just discovered, that the whole book from Wilhelm Koppers (written together with Martin Gusinde) about the Indians of Tierra del Fuego, "Unter Feuerland-Indianern", is available online on a private website. Koppers, like the famous Gusinde, was a priest, but also a professor for Anthropology in Vienna. He did research under those now vanished indigenous people from south america in 1921/1922. He founded the journal "Anthropos" and was advocate of a comparative anthropology ("Kulturkreislehre").
