This policy: Crisis summit at the EC Summit in the Hague, confidence has been shown only outwardly. The 9 heads of Government contributed yet their national to the general economic problems. Despite this temptation, Chancellor Schmidt played his role as world Economist grandiose than usual: the Federal Republic - celebrated for years as the island of stability of the community - is increasingly under pressure set to restructure the indebted economies of some of the community.
In the Hague "Binnenhof 2 the governmental leaders tried for two days to formulate common ground and to balance conflicting interests." The Commissioners met with the it was among other things to a common commercial policy towards Japan and North South dialogue between the industry, raw materials, and developing countries. In contrast to all other members of the EC, Germany still rejects a coupling of commodity prices on the price development of industrial goods. Such price indexation clauses so that stability-conscious Germany - fears exacerbating the global inflation and lead to a global commodity dirigisme.
At a reception for the State and Prime Minister, Queen Juliana used her dog to loosen up the atmosphere something. But he was not at all popular.
Similarly non-binding as the small-talk with the Queen ended the Conference. Unsettled by the impending increase of in oil prices limited 9 leaders compared to the raw material and developing countries is on a promise to do the best for the common good.

This report: Express mail as Christmas approaches, also tired are awake, then, if they have an indefinite but legitimate feeling that they have left with the letter or package for the dear relatives once again too much time. A timely checked package with a legible address and the zip code of large on - and a well packaged shipment, this is important especially for Christmas, if at the post office all power reserves are mobilized to curb the annual flood of the package. Saves time, who uses the mornings and early afternoon hours to achieve to deliver at the post office packet.
Parcels and small packets only then in time reach their recipients in the Federal territory and West Berlin if they abandoned up until December 13. Also applies to letters: with a legible address rather a few days earlier than a day late send off. And a more conventional wisdom: the remote receiver, the sooner on the way. Airmail have a chance until mid-December. The 20th December is the deadline for letters within the Federal area.
Gift parcels and letters in the GDR the three letters are used now in place of the 'X' GDR before the postal code. For packages, the 17 December the 6th, for letters considered submission deadline. It is therefore high time. You should check the available on every post office import rules in the GDR. Last year, the East German customs officials sent back around one hundred thousand packages for violation of the customs regulations.

This technique: Tire-Plage under 20 million cars roll 80 million tires on our streets. About a quarter of them are left in the course of one year and then become an environmental problem. Solutions be sought. Still, the method is not found to destroy tyres at reasonable economic cost and impact on the environment or exploit. Today, synthetic rubber is the basic material for car tyres. The tire is built with layers of synthetic material, before steel belt and tread to be lived. Synthetic fibres can be later hardly destroy or run back into the production process. Although car tires made especially headlines lately, that some products suitable for transport proved only partially. However, dieseFehler can be resolved constructively. Only old car tyres are a perennial problem. But that is not all. Around 10% internal construction and steel belt are still intact, you can get a new free space.
Some tires withstand even a multiple treatment - aircraft tyres about that new are Vulcanized up to eight times. Scrap tires in ports to protect of the walls of the ship or as a game element in leisure facilities - a rather helpless trying to make the best of the troublesome waste.
The burning of tires is wasteful and damaging to the environment. In this Dutch work they are torn before mechanically. Special filters prevent allegedly harmful combustion gases into the atmosphere. Many tires are burned is still on garbage dumps and ensuring. We recently used feingemahlenes tire material in road construction. After the judgment of professionals who tyre flour makes the road surface also grippy and flexible.
However, the disposal or recycling on a large scale, is still on the agenda. Until then, always new tyre mountains will change the topography of our landscape.

In sports: Fall Parcoure Pardubice - after the British Grand National, the world's toughest steeplechase. 13 horses and their riders had this time to less than 7 km-long course taken. The former foreign participants. The American Slcan, crashed with his gelding first at the second hurdle.
Survival training: curved together remain in the hope the horses know the equerry - wisdom, that horse never step on a living creature.
The field was already heavily decimated after 15 of the 30 obstacles. More horses separated from their riders on the taxis ditch. Steeplechase fans like to embellish their sport as the most courageous endurance test for riders. You don't ask how she feels about a horse. If it is driven over ramparts and ditches.
Hardness and experience paid off at the end. 2 winners of previous years, rushed by a third, the first places were taken. In the target people were from obstacle riders again: once again got away with it!
