Our report from the present journey to the ancient Etruscan starts this time in the past, namely at the 2,500-year-old culture. The electronic equipment of Italian researchers settled now in the recently discovered graves of this once in the Tuscany-based people. In this new way was to hold the image of the burial cave, before they entered a human foot.

Where did you get your hand...
Once again, the exciting journey in the history of Roman antiquity begins for the archaeologists. So as you witness a sunken time to light our day eradicator repeated, most recently the arms so far armless Venus de Milo to be discovered. Our French colleagues made a few impertinent thoughts about suspected position of the former beauty ideal of our grandfathers: E.g. the athlete, the cleaning lady, the traffic extricated, or perhaps ancient Hitchhiker? Also conceivable: the tempestuous lover or: shortly after the licence. The abandoned seafarer's bride and the wine Queen, the domineering, the first fascist and the ideal hostesses for the visit of the Louvre Museum.

Beer - March!
We To want animate but not to visit the Louvre, but a trip to Munich, to guide you in mind as putting sagenschatz folklore and new Bavarian tourism advertising, as well as modern hype machine Munich began the Octoberfest with all force, which they are capable of.
As always, the mood barometer rose skyward, was the starting point for the foaming Maß released, what did Mayor Thomas Wang with long-practiced skill.
The way of all the sensations and attractions was even too long for some young lovers of Oktoberfest. But for all the others, who undertook a horizontal or vertical travel in the summer grass-air with the help of the motors, the night was as always A lot too short given the colorful fun.

... through night and wind another nocturnal company gebärdete far more mysterious. It had found the Tarnnamen "Erlkönig" by an evocative bond with a Ballad of Goethe's. Except that here, not the father with son and horse through the night rides, but savvy driver of the NSU works behind the wheel of a new car sit, to test their latest shoot through its paces.
After the jewelry cart had thoroughly learned how hard is the life on German roads, it had to Once again to Polish to a high gloss. Because after all, it was yes guest at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Our all favorite child In the Group of internationally forged chrome and cigar reinforced prominence, the man likes to fatherhood to all the gloss and pomp writes to, also the other German manufacturers presented the attractions that they To want lure the money out of the stock market the car fan to the next spring.
The auto show in Frankfurt showed, that is of the sidewalk ' weaned citizens of this century with anspruchsloseren types are hardly still satisfied. And it reflected the glory of world famous cars: the painted and chrome-plated ', vain but inevitable, motor-driven principle of our time.

We discovered loops made in Germany the face of our time behind the stick of German jet fighter, who moved up their machines in the sky in the frame of a large welcome to the existence of the German air force. These four jet fighters are the first German aerobatic team after the war. What seems here like the harmless game of metal birds, is the result of a five-year hard training. The test pilot and flight instructor, who sit in the machines, were allowed to practice exclusively in the leisure for their dangerous hobby.
Our cameraman Willy Vlasdeck, who flew with the dress rehearsal of the art season, filming For you also the foreign participants on the major Airshow in fürstenfeldbruck, Germany, that made this day by their performances to a small Farnborough.
The connection to international Jet art aviation succeeded in the German air force with their season. After all, the Earth at a speed of about 1000 kilometres per hour turns here.

Gold-plated tradition in a while Very much A lot slower and behäbigere, but this peaceful world of gilded courtly splendour we are restored, if we join the Dutch Royal family to the annual opening of the new session of the Parliament in the Hague. Three princesses, among them went first Princess Margriet, in an own carriage, because the big state car for 5 people has become too small.
But these appear as unusual images of a leisurely and venerable tradition in the sober frame of our present, showed the opening speech of Queen Julianas. She reminded of the serious international political background, before the Dutch Parliament will hold its sessions.

Each day brings a new drama hotspot Berlin in Berlin. In the Bernauer Straße to the sector border, people police officers from the eastern sector from unleash a water battle against the West press. This was followed by tear gas bombs.
Everyday scenes that reveal the insanity of this inhuman Division take place before the eyes of the West Berlin. A 77jährige Ostberlinerin hovers between fear and indecision over the jump cloth of West Berlin fire brigade. Vopos appear, the old woman in the Communist prison back to drag. Courageous West Berliners to intervene, and the wife manages to escape to freedom.
Under the protection of armored Scout car truck drive unannounced, to a Bower colony in the Berlin neighbourhood of Schönholz compulsion to give.
After the furniture is been taken away, the houses will be demolished. The border area is apparently expanded to a death strip.
These debris are the rest small Bower castles, which lovingly been are cobbled together by their owners after the war in evening hours. But also the rest of a policy with the people for a system should be collected once you are. People who now must experience behind barbed wire, that you zwangsaussiedelt them and their substance as in the darkest times of total warfare.
