This policy: battlefield Federal Council after the election campaign with commitment and passion to the 8th German Bundestag, the Parliament of the Federal Republic in the German capital Bonn the House next door reinforced in the light of the public has: the Federal Council.
The question recurs frequently in the daily mail: "And when will be a new Federal Council elected now?". A mistake. The Federal Council has no elections, he is, as they say, an "eternal" organ. Its 45 members are loyal to changes in the provincial governments in regional elections. Its new President - elected regularly for a year - is Dr. Bernhard Vogel, Minister-President of Rhineland-Palatinate. The functions of the Federal Council, he said: "may I thank dear ladies and gentlemen, the unanimous choice as the new President of the Federal Council for you.

He is a Supreme Constitutional body that brings political and administrative experience of the countries in the legislation and administration of the Federal Government. The Federal Council in State responsibility performs these functions."

On the issue of which enter Prime Minister Kühn and Stoltenberg: Prime Minister Kühn: "we live in a State of relative balance of political power, weak majority for the Government in the Bundestag, weak majority for the opposition in the Bundesrat. The Federal Council is founded on the federal principle, that the administrative and regional experiences and needs of the Federal States in him find an expression: but not that he is an Konterkarierunge instrument against the opinion of the Parliament. "That's why we are arguing: this new understanding of the Federal Council in the Union of the federal principle to a principle of the party-State."
Prime Minister Stoltenberg: "the different majority in the Bundestag and Bundesrat with which we live seven years this is not new, positive have impacted on the legislation." "You have to a greater diversity of many laws have been clearly improved in the last few years in this way, and even no speech can be of blockade policy because all laws in recent years, with two exceptions, it was possible to come to an understanding in spite of different majority."
As different views. His main task of the Federal Council will meet always - participation at the legislation and administration of the Federal Government as it is set in the basic law.

This leisure: Vacation in between views of the city. Lock signals on coloured glossy paper, seduction in passing, once break out of the everyday, and be it only for a few days or a weekend. Distances have become almost meaningless, if one not just for the Sahara desert or Antarctica. Our modern transport systems have brought closer to countries and cities each other. Close enough to relax somewhere in Germany or Europe for a long weekend.
City tours. An offer for the short break in between. One of 52 cities, for every weekend. Who wanted to visit has always been the Hradčany, the Parisian Eiffel Tower climb, or eat Labskaus in Bremen, needs only to enter. The train brings him to his destination without stopover. And the Deutsche Bundesbahn cares also about everything else. Since 1971, it has the cities of tours in the program. 350,000 Germans have used until today the chance to make a mini Spa for the everyday Streß for a few days.
The journey in a small suitcase is maßgearbeitet - a flat-rate arrangement with hotel accommodation and other required services. The vouchers are redeemed at the destination. Almost all cities advertise extra perks. E.g. Bremen with free museum visits, one city or harbour cruise and a guided tour with a knowledgeable guide. Meeting point marketplace. Under the Bremen town musicians, she could start at journey of discovery through the North German port city of more than a thousand years old.
The Bremen compass-oriented and informed, says the short visitors that tankers and container ships for clients from all over the world are built on two large shipyards. And then waits for the reserved hotel bed in the price category that you booked to house in the evening.
Change of location, Prague - an insider's tip for stressed contemporaries, the between the weathered splendor of towers and palaces of the sedate pace of life the former k. u. k.-monarchy seek to capture. Grand-Hotel flair at the reception - for whole 206 mark. So much it costs per person, if about a couple from Nuremberg in four days the metropolis of Moldova holiday from everyday life.
Inspirational musical such as Vienna, Paris: when Western tourists, no other city in Eastern Europe is as popular as Prague. Churches, bridges and palaces, Pilsner beer and Prague ham - on the Vltava River rides, who thinks it good with it, Charles of the IV. King of Bohemia and Emperor, Prague chose his favorite city in the fourteenth century. And because he has done much for the development of the city Prague toast today like their King Karel - also with the neighbors from the West.
A few free days at the foot of the Castle - some had their key Erlebnie here. They discovered as a contrast, a fascinating getaway from the everyday city breaks when the desire becomes overpowering after a change of scenery.

This music: hillbilly-boom if Cowboys beat the clock, they are - the young people in the Netherlands, which inspired more than their contemporaries in Europe for the Hillilly songs from the States. Even if in the country-and-Western music long professional musicians set the tone, her game has lost little of the originality of American pioneer days. A touch pervades even such compositions, which are younger than their artists by distance, freedom and of uncomplicated joy of life.
In the year the Dutch singer and their models of how the United States meet on several festivals that freshly married Charlie Moore and Lois Constable, who are joined at the country day in Barneveid on their honeymoon in Europe.
