spooky
las caras de belmez
An expressionistic, painterly image of a man's face spontaneously appeared on her kitchen floor—which was ripped out six days later and re-laid with cement. One week later, another face appeared in the same spot [...]
Nine feet down, human remains were discovered and given a proper burial, and a new floor was installed. Two weeks later, another man's face appeared, and two weeks after that, the face of a woman surrounded by 9-15 tiny faces. [...]
Although the events continued through 1972, there is a dearth of photographic and other hard evidence, scientific explanations were quickly abandoned.

coltrane shopping list
compiled by esa onttonen, a finnish jazzer who seems to know.
A Love Supreme
Impulse! Lasting "only" 33 minutes is quite short on current standards, but this is one of the most important jazz albums ever and should belong to all record collections.
Crescent
Impulse! Although overshadowed by A Love Supreme, this is an equally important and influential recording, often cited by musicians (e.g. David Liebman) as their favorite Coltrane album.
Giant Steps
Atlantic Probably more musicians' than "regular listeners" favorite, this recording introduced some hard stuff for the next generations of players, including rapidly modulating "Giant Steps" and "Countdown" and the beautiful ballad dedicated to Coltrane's wife, "Naima".
Blue Train
Blue Note This is Coltrane's first major album under his own leadership and already features aspects in his compositions that would later be utilized more frequently, e.g. the major third relationship between the modulating keys in "Moment's Notice" would later appear on "Giant Steps".
Transition and Sun Ship
Impulse! Superb playing from The Quartet (Coltrane, Garrison, Tyner, Jones) - these albums stretched the word "jazz" even further into the free zone Coltrane would adopt on his later recordings.

lecker essen mit auberginen - vol. 1
das werden türkische "imam bayildi". ist eine vorspeise oder wenn man eine große aubergine nimmt & mit beilage (reis, couscous?) serviert, ein hauptgericht. rein zufällig auch 100% vegetarisch, aber sehr geschmackvoll.
das braucht der phillip (pro person)
- eine aubergine
- eine mittelgroße zwiebel
- eine große tomate (oder geschälte tomaten aus der dose)
- eine milde grüne peperonischote
- frische glatte petersilie
- etwas tomatenpüree
- eine knoblauchzehe
- olivenöl, salz, pfeffer
die vorbereitung
der aubergine mit einem spar(gel)schäler der länge nach rundherum streifen der schale abschälen, so das nur noch etwa die hälfte (der schale) dran bleibt.
an einer abgeschälten stelle v-förmig tief einschneiden (aber nicht durchschneiden), da kommt nachher die füllung rein. dann 15 min. in salzwasser legen.
in der zwischenzeit kann man die zwiebeln in feine scheiben schneiden, die petersilie grob hacken, die knoblauchzehen in stifte schneiden sowie die peperoni längs halbieren und entkernen.
verwendet man nicht schon geschälte tomaten aus der dose, kann man sich jetzt noch drum kümmern das die haut von den tomaten runterkommt. die tomaten dazu eine zeit lang in heißes wasser legen, dann platzt die haut fast von selbst ab. die tomaten noch würfeln.
in die pfanne
die 15min sind um, jetzt die auberginen gut abtrocknen, und in einer pfanne mit olivenöl rundherum scharf anbraten.
auberginen fertig, raus. gleich in eine auflaufform legen, mit einschnitt nach oben.
zwiebeln rein in die auberginen-pfanne, und weich dünsten (=wenig hitze). die tomate (zerdrücken), tomatenpüree und petersilie dazu, mit salz pfeffer & etwas olivenöl abschmecken.
in den ofen
dies in die einschnitte der auberginen füllen, den rest rundherum verteilen. die füllung mit je einer knoblauchzehe stifen, dann die halbierte peperoni drüberlegen.
etwa 1-2cm hoch wasser angießen und im ofen bei 160 grad etwa 45 min. schmoren.
auf den tisch
mit gehackter frischer petersilie bestreuen und servieren. ein leichter weißwein ist auch immer lecker!
